R15 vs CCM | Sat 14 Jan | 7:35pm | RoF | with added Wee Nix and 12 Pubs

Not many other options...

What do we think the score's going to look like? I say 4-2 Phoenix. Smeltzy with a brace, Weemac and Gui getting the other two

So the club are giving away 50 tickets to the game to those that get down to the stadium. Except all I've seen of it is a pidly post on their Facebook page which has got bugger all traction. Why on earth don't they put some marketing cash behind these things and actually get some eyeballs on their promotions. 

From the Hyundai A-League site (match preview)...

Is Roy in disguise for tonight's game?:

With the season on the line, I'd take a 1-0 win over the risk of getting too fancy. Even a 93rd minute Glen Moss goal kick getting caught up in a Cook Strait Southerly...

...(I've never been to the Cake Tin, I presume the pitch runs north-south, like the old Athletic Park which I was familiar with).

How we lining up people with more IT skills than I?

I'm in favour of starting Smeltz with Watson in a 4-1-3-2

4-4-2 Moss Tratt - dura - rossi - Doyle Kosta - lia - arod - weemac Smeltz - roly Yep that's right roly up front. Looks like it'll be more of a 4-2-3-1

Nix line-up on the twitter feed just through is:  Smeltz & Bonevacia up front. McGlinchey, Rodriguez, lia, Barbarouses midfield and Doyle, Rossi, Durante, Tratt Defence with Moss.

Subs: Lowry, Finkler,Watson, Parkhouse, Italiano

Don't think that line-up has been tried before. Looks very interesting to me.

i cant begin to tell you all how happy I am to see McGlinchey back

Northerly today though. I think the pitch is roughly north-south but to be honest it doesn't make a difference. The shape of the stadium structure means that whatever direction the wind is from it just sucks into the bowl and swirls crazily around the ground

Not much pace in that line up in midfield or attack apart from Kosta. I guess we'll be looking for more patient buildup play

If the crowds were bigger it could cause a Mexican wave type of swirl.

cheers lads

We going to win 4-0

I have a feeling Roly will want to prove a point tonight.

He certainly needs to.

The Mariners have come from a heatwave too. Conditions are all for us today. It's perfect ambush weather.

Can't go wrong   COYN

crowds pretty thin at the moment....

The rest are probably all watching that wedding on TV. Stupid lemmings.

Nah Antiques Roadshow is on

Finally managing to fit most of our midfielders on pitch at same time.

7.37..not started?

Would rather see Parkhouse out wide and McG playing in Lia's role.

Beat them boys

Beat them hard

Another reason for Bosnich to hate on us!

That would be risky on defence...

ha!

welcome back weemac...!!

Easy!!!!

Rodrigues had a good role to play in that one

link?

It's good to be back

Can't believe those clocks are worth that much!!!

Smeltz out wide aint going to work

Timeless ?!?

No 6000 quid!

O priceless then !

Ummm pretty sure the price is 6000 quid!

babarouses is diabolical
