Nix vs CCM - Sunday 22nd 3pm

Happy we won but gutted I got the time zones out by two hours so only saw the last two minutes.

If anyone can post the entire game on a sharing site or send to me via sendit.com etc than please let me know. If this uses up your bandwidth then happy to transfer $10 or whatever as token compensation. PM me if this is possible for someone.

This is exactly what I just did.

Tbh central coast played pretty sh*t and looked pretty sh*t. Good run for the nix. Will be different next week against brisbane

any news on paston? is he injured? the last time he stopped taking goal kicks he had a fracture in his leg....

A quad strain is the word.

great win, a bit dissapointed with a few things though... too many long balls and offsides in the first half and Ifill should have had a brace but other than that a good hit out against a very defensive minded team.

Yeah, pretty average game. Willing to give Toto more chances but he was pretty average. Though he was playing on the left. Would he be better up the middle? No one really stood out as MoM for me. Happy with the result, but plenty of room for improvement which is good. Two nice goals.

yea sh*t game all round and even Ifill was well below par.

but a win's a win.

Very happily take the 3 points but we were rubbish in the first half - somewhat better in the second.

Paston may miss next weeks game........................................................................  

Why don't you add another dot?

SACK TOTO!!!

ok, a couple of posts deleted. for obvious reasons. enuf

I was pretty impressed by Toto. One great ball which unleashed Ifill, an excellent bit of combination play down the wing with Lochead (I think) and a pretty decent tackle to lift some pressure.

McAllister didn't look too bad either. He wasn't the quickest, but he held the ball up well and gave the CCM defenders an extra thing to worry about.

Toto reminded me of Italy in the WC.

us YF had a fairly quiet 1st half - lots of basking in the sun

Happy with Big Mac's contribution - he give us something new

(we've got the best burger in the league)

really was a slightly uninspiring 2nd half until we scored

pleased to see we didn't sit back after geting 2 goals clear

clean sheet has to be good after last week

3rd place - game in hand on most teams - yep I'll take that

Toto needs more time on the park to assess what he'll bring - he might need telling to play it a bit safer in our half - i think that he wants it played at a faster tempo than our lads are currently (except Ifill and perhaps Leo, Greenie and Dura) capable of

Manny might just be staking a claim for a wingback role when North gets heretigers2010-08-22 18:39:25

I'm going to reserve judgement on Toto until he's play a few games but I will say when he came on He ran around for 30 seconds stopped put his hands on his hips and needed a breather for 10 seconds.

Ricki must see something in him but I saw little today 

You're silly. Did you see the other keeper before the game he was Sh**house.

Hat off to Ginger_eejit on fire today boy

I've got a song it wont take long central coast are rubbish ...

I thought Toto gave away possession a bit much BUT half the time it was because the Nix player intended to receive the pass was too slow of thought.

9553 crowd today. Seemed more but should have been much more given the nice weather.

Thought Manny and Siggie had good games today. Manny looked wasted a few minutes from time.

Great result, but a rather poor game from both sides.
Skill level was way down, and tbh I thought is was quite boring.
However, 3 points are important.

Probably not helped by the drilling he got into the signage?

I thought Phoenix were pretty good today, but for much of the game it looked too much like last week for my liking. UKandy2010-08-22 19:54:05

It was a strange sort of game really (think I said that last week too...). First goal was really good stuff, especially from Muscat, and the second goal was a great finish. In between there really wasn't much else to shout about.

OK, Paston didn't put a foot wrong in this game, but he does not inspire confidence at all. Every time he goes for a catch from a cross, my heart jumps into my mouth.

oh, and Greenacre is class. 

Look out for the next one.

I don't think we can judge Toto just eyt. He had good ideas with all his play but it will take a while for the other players to begin to read his play.

Also, him and Daniel provide awesome half time entertainment

sarcastic or snarky mockery

freakn!

modern poetry alert....

im happy enough. 28+ games left.

To be honest, I've been to much, much better football games. Both teams can play much better than they actually did.
