A new chant for the ref at the Melbourne game, while it's still topical.

Don't know how to get hold of TonyP or Nix management to suggest this but I think when the Nix are a few days from playing Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane away, an advert in the local rag (or radio) aimed at expats to come along and support the team could really help with our support numbers at away games.

The utilizing of scarves takes a fair bit of creative flair when dealing with these types of temperatures...cheekily tucked into a back pocket or tied into a belt are popular at the mo, or just carried ready to waive in a moments notice.

All the best over there,hopefully you are able to find an internet cafe that works this time.
Would be good to hear the "Archie Thompson's illegitimate..." song going off over there.
Not that it will be difficult to outsing them - just like the team itself,their support is over-rated

Oh no, we'll be quiet as church mice...it's just that the protest has ended for the moment, and the BWB will be taking up residence on level 1 for one night only...normal service will be resumed, apart from the South End still banished from their spiritual home...

Do we get to be kept in for 20 minutes after the final whistle again? Thank christ we were shielded from being massacred by those terrifying hordes of 13-year-olds that were all over the place.

See you all at the game. I expect the wild scenes to top the ones we had when Lia scored.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Aussie TV report that today will be a dangerously hot day in the top 30s or even 40! Great for football not.

Good luck to all fans over there in melbourne.
