Yep they said there were delays, also said that was 1am nz time.
Unacceptable. They should've left Melbourne the following day and headed straight to Newcastle.

Absolutely disgraceful result this is. This isn't just a loss, but a loss that could well alienate fans even further.

Wouldn't go that far; team was obviously tired. You have to remember that half of our squad is injured at the mo; we've done well to stay in it.

Still no excuse for losing 5-0  of course; but just saying we should throw out the team and start again is missing the point considering weve put some great performances in this season.

We always seem to be on the wrong end of every stat. Every time somebody scores their first A-League goal - it's against us. Every record win - is against us. Every goal drought is broken against us. It's bullshit.

Do we want to win the league or be mid table? If we want to win the league we need better players throughout.

Wrong. We need another year with Ernie and more luck with injuries.

It's not FM or FIFA; changing the team completely would likely make things take longer, not speed up the process of making us compete at the top.

Abysmal and embarrassing losing 5-0 to Newcastle.  Losing 5-0 to teams at the top is one thing, but that's now Heart and Newcastle that have destroyed us?!

As for the travel - surely we should be heading over there on Thursday at the latest.

A number of players simply didn't put enought into that game.

Do you feel alienated? 
I don't. Just sad, disappointed, and a little bit jaded.
We had an injury crisis this season and instead of putting hand in pocket the owners left Merrick with kids who are good but not ready. I read Gareth Morgan in the paper saying he has more money than he knows what to do with, well I have a suggestion...

We were inept against set plays. 

Only one goal from open play. 

We never threatened their goal.  Josh Kennedy could have sat in the stands at half time and the Jets would have still won 5-0.  As soon as that goal went in at the start of the second half I felt another hiding coming. 

All three hidings came about after a tight first half. 

Our defence is abysmal.

Really wish Sea Monster had played today.

Their getting their payback for Brocks doing against them last season.  Intersting side note is that last goal came from an ex Leeds United player.  People with LUFC links have hurt as badly over the last 7 days.

Well obviously I was exagerating - but definitely need cover for Riera, a number 10, and someone that can score goals.

I have a feeling that Hernandez is going to be worse for us next year - a year older and without the motivation of the world cup.

Maybe not Timms but it seems as though Durante was the only one playing in defence.
