With back to back games they can do that, most of our home games are on Sunday.

That was a gutsy effort! Hit and run and 3 from 3 v the Bling this season. Top knotch, and a cross from Lochead even the great Nilton Santos would be proud of.

Botafogo - Rio de Janeiro and Wellington Phoenix, my two teams til death do us part.

"Scott Jamieson, you're a big girl!".
 
Well, I assume it was a Nix supporter who yelled that. Could just as well have been one of the Sydney idiots.

That's our second treble this season, Newcastle and now Sydney. We only had one before this season, against Perth season one.

Wow....that was as ugly as my sister....and shes very ugly!!!
 
Still who cares. 3 points away is fantastic. I always thought we can foot it with any other A-League team apart from the top two. Great scrambling defense in numbers got us through.
 
They made it tougher on themselves by terrible ball retention....and some of the skill level apart from Ifill was woeful.
 
Whats up with Dani boy? He is not playing like someone who wants a new contract. OK...he obviously hates playing out wide but you don't lose your skill set because you are playing out of position. He is a better player than what we have seen the last few weeks.

YES so good he gives Pav the big "Just give me the F...N ball" Then proceeds to do to much with the next ball he recieved - he lost it.

If Sydney were sh*t, what were we? They pounded us for most of the game.

"UK Andy" is sh*t.

I'm actually happy to come away from a game that although we lost we at least played well. As opposed to going home wanting to kick the sh*t of the next door neighbour's cat!

Yes.  My friend is in love, but I promised to be home by 12 so I was. 

Tried to tell drips I'd be on my way around the end of the GCU game.

How's my driving? - Whine here
