Paying for all those near misses at the start.
Anyone know if we will see Riera in the last couple of games? There was talk that he would be a possibility for the finals. So should be close to fit for the last game?

But our so called (available) best XI keep losing, and badly!
Starting to feel like Ricki-esque loyalty to some players who are not performing....
I totally agree, but now that there is nothing left to play for I would rather that we now gave others a chance to impress while under no presure. I would rather we tried something different and came last than played the same and came 8th.

Just re-posting my comment from the previous page so someone can adjust the heading of this thread which has the wrong time for Sunday's game (kick-off is 7 pm NZ time, NOT 6 pm as it states):
Eh? 6 pm kick-off? The heading of this thread says 6 pm but Sky's Electronic Program Guide says 7 pm,
as does the A-League website (5 pm Sydney time). Game is definitely at 7 pm NZ time.
Note that daylight saving ends Sunday morning in both NSW and NZ so Sydney remains two hours behind NZ.

I find this confusing.
I we get the least points why wouldn't we deserve to come last? Are you saying 1-0 wins count less than 5-0 wins because we've had a few of those ourselves?

Also, I agree we played great football for a while there, it was fantastic, but you can't claim that 5 or 6 weeks of great football in a 27 game season means you don't deserve to come last.
Perth played some decent football earlier in the season.
Heart had a period of playing fantastic football and stringing wins together.
So, no one deserves to come last?

WelNix would be silly to let Riera go, even unfit he is a better prospect for our midfield than many in that position.
(I said "many", not "Manny")
Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days
Saw Riera walking on Vivian st on Monday :-) But as said earlier Timmins is his injury replacement so Riera can't come back.
Also think the time confusion might have been in part due to FFA listing the game as 5pm AEDT not AEST originally. Has changed now.

Just turned over to the Doggies v Roosters game, the pitch is gonna be a paddock on Sunday
Does anyone find it amusing that Brockie laments our home form when his from drop-off occurred at the same time?

I gather his trying to accept the blame, and take the proverbial one for the team (but in his usual way)

Whatever you do dont put the blame on you...

Bloody quiet prematch thread again. I guess everyone is just trying not to think about the fact that with Manny suspended Lia will be our DM... and Sydney have a certain Italian chap who will be lurking around between our defence and midfield. I usually try to be optimistic about the Nix's chances in any game but I can't help feeling that...
People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people.
Don't go the other way.I did last week - ran a spoiler against the Reds all week(to no avail) but felt like shit when we lost anyway.

I'm not sitting here and thinking 'we are doomed' but I don't believe that 3 points here are as likely as they have been in the past.
Grumpy old bastard alert
Oh, well we're definitely doomed now with that pitch, it'll completely ruin our intricate, delicate and precise passing game.
