he cant catch the ball that italiano drops. nor can he score the goals that AK butchers, tactics could be at fault assuming the players are following his instructions, if they are not then I'd sack the captain as he is not doing his job!

Just remember, it's our fault games are being taken away from Wellington, because not enough people are turning up to watch this trash.

Do you want the coach to catch the f*cking ball mate? WTF can he do with the sh*t he has to mould?

We don't deserve to be in the League - what do we offer to the comp or to be fair to NZ players atm??


A professional contract

Go overseas, try to ake it there, get a gig at Auckland... the coach is playing Parkhouse for fsake - he claerly doesn't reate NZ youngsters


Easier said than done getting a gig overseas. If Auckland City could offer more than the Nix, we would've been replaced years ago. For me the Nix offer a great way for young talented kiwis to get hands on experience and game time. If they're good enough then they'll picked up by a bigger club

Well he has done a Mark Hammett and taken the team apart. He now has to demonstrate that he can put it back together again. I do not like his chances

the really dangerous thing about this is that I love this club and always have, but we're 4-0 down and I don't feel sad or angry or even disappointed, just a bleak nothing-ness.

This season can not end soon enough for me!

I will continue to watch every game - but I just don't care (enough) anymore. 3 seasons of absolute sharke, 3 seasons of it!

To be fair, at least I will be feeling pretty numb when we lose for the rest of the season, it's when we build up a scrap of hope and then squander it that's the worst.

I don't know - maybe not play Italiano and play Velaphi this week, maybe don't put on Parkhouse - perhaps do his research a little more on Klaud who is not worth a visa spot - to start with.

I felt like that in the leadup to Christmas.  It's really depressing.  I've been jolted back to anger, it's actually a much better feeling than where you are now.  I feel you man, I know exactly what it is you are feeling.

We haven't scored a goal for how long... I know, lets keep the same formation, keep the same tactics, lets change nothing and hope it gets better.

Oh no, another game without a goal and never looking likely.

Strangely, I do not feel the anger (yet). At the moment I just feel numb.

Klaud - you mean our leading goalscore this season? if he had better service I'm pretty sure he'd be scoring more. Velaphi played for weenix this week soI'd expect to see him next week once game fit. Agree with you re Parkhouse.

Me too. I'm feeling nothing. Watching with a friend and i'm just ignoring everything he says, can't bear to listen to it, but strangely i don't feel too bad about getting smashed. Maybe it's a feeling of resignation, like we're gonna fold anyway

Klaud is our top goal scorer yes - but his finishing, bar of his head is non existant. Nor can he provide a decent target, or act as a decent link man...

He loses possession more often than he keeps it, and he's offside too often.

He is not A League quality - which is probably why he wasn't signed on longer, or picked up by any of the other teams when he first played in the A League.

Would not make any other team as a starter, and barely a sub at others - yet a certain starter for us.

Seems a nice guy - but not good enough for the A Leagu - but sadly, it appears, good enough for us!

I suggest you look back - has missed multiple one on ones - he is not quality, middling at best.

But that's the striker we have. 

And we know he can score and that he's better with his head. 

Didn't create enough chances. Monty and Burns at the same time may be better. 

I'm over Parkhouse tbh. Not good enough, but is fit and available so gets selected.

What does Parkhouse have over McGarry?

about 8 years ago

Smith (Fudge Flappy)

Don't Care - Fox - Durante  - Cacace

Patterson- Ridenton - Singh -Rufer

Kaluderovic - Burns

Positions/formations up for debate, but that is the personnel I would like to see.  Throw them all in the deep end, give them some experience and see who swims.  Durante deserves to see out the season on sentiment, we aren't going to win anyway, he can give the young side some experience, and there isn't any other centre back in our squad I want out there. It's a massively lightweight midfield I know, but we aren't doing anything with what we have now.  Could accept Patterson further up for Kaluderovic for someone else like Paracki in the middle if we have to, but we're shipping goals anyway so who cares.

This season is a write off. Get the kids out there  and see what they've got.

Even if we had changed tactics & altered our formations - man for man, we are still not good enough.
