I've just been quietly following this season with increasing pride in the team. It got to the stage that, pre-Covid-19 stoppage, I was taking it for granted that we'd just breeze past teams like Victory, and we did.
Last night wasn't a great result but it's still good to have a shot at something in the finals, after so many disappointing years.
Last season was great too, I'm not forgetting that, but this year just seems like something else.
I'm off today to find some Phoenix gear...but don't call me a fair-weather fan! It's just that I've never looked too hard for any Phoenix gear, honest! I want something low-key, like what the only other known Phoenix fan here in Katoomba NSW has, it's just a black T-shirt with the logo on the front. No advertising, etc.
