Embarrassing. Time for Ernie to call it quits if the silent board won't sack him.

You can blame the refs and shark but Melbourne are walking through a 10 man team with pace and ease. There is only one lot to blame and thats ourselves (team). Fox got himself sent off, we've conceded 2 penalties. Yelling at the ref wont fix or change the fact that we fudgeed up and been the cause of our own issues tonight.

Thing is Jeff the problem is its not just tonite.

A league is a tight one- Doyle, Rossi and A-Rod make this a different game...

Wonder if Italiano gets a look in at any point?

Only Rossi would make any difference.

Yeah for gobbing off yet again yep some bad calls but all they are doing is allowing some to focus on the officals and not how truly shark we are.

Sure, more the irony of it than anything else.

Yeah, shame there's absolutely nothing going on behind them.

Reckon Nix will lose at least one to a red card and ship another couple. Score a consolation goal though.

Spot on mate!

It would bloody help if some of the players actually decided to play and compete instead of a 90 min stroll every week

At least our goal wasn't a consolation goal, it was when we kinda still had a chance.

Players have lost the plot. Effort of a number of them has to be questioned. Far too many that simply don't have it now, or never had it: Durante (past it), Lia (never had it), Parkhouse (not a left back), McGlinchey (lazy passenger), Finkler (struggling), Kosta (struggling), Roly (slightly better tonight, but still struggling), Krishna (not good enough to be our main striker). The list goes on.

So you are Dome/Morrison/Welnix board

You don't do over reactions

What do you do after tonights result?

Granted a sending off did not help, Rossi being injured did not help and we largely predicted a loss but its the manner in which we lost is quite worrying.

Even the diehard Fever exec that like to ignore match day angst have to admit that after the 1st couple of rounds, there is no real reason for that performance...

FFS you would think players are lining up to come here the way some of you carry on.

Seemed to be on some kind of death wish tonight. Sure sign there's not a lot of confidence about in anything we're trying to do. Like Ernie too, but can't see him turning this around.

Shark themselves as due to becoming traveling Phoenix they only have 8 home games left and there arnt enough points there to make the playoffs.

We just don't have the quality on the pitch and we can't offer anything from the bench either and that goes for most matches. I was surprised Fox was kept on and it was obvious he was going to get sent off.

Those that are here should still give 100%! Some are no doubt on decent money but are stealing a wage right now.

Too many players who are not A-League quality and the ones who are aren't playing close to their best.

At least I don't have to listen to the 'We're not Auckland anymore' song at the Mt Smart game in December? That chant always annoyed me.

Muscat is a smug bastard. Basically spelling out exactly how he broke us down and how its quite obvious to break us down.

Perfectly relevant when you see people posting how bad most of the team is, you would think we have them banging down the doors to get here.

would be seriously concerned if nothing changes over the next few weeks. This is supposed to be a do or die campaign for the club, the board would hopefully see that.

Agreed. Him and Finkler both looked in a great mood, joking around, etc. It wouldn't be so bad if he played well but he was hardly involved at all.

Seems like one of those everyone can see but the coach moments.

Very thin bench so Ernie took a bet, with bad odds.
