read today "United will be confident of remaining in striking distance of ladder leaders Brisbane with a win over sixth-placed Wellington."

Yeah right

If anyone missed Mossy's interview on Jason Pine's breakfast show today, here it is, go about 43'45" into the file. Good to know he still feels the love for the Nix and watches the games when he can. I just heart Mossy.

Dam right, especially after these from the a-league site -

Thwaite wants Phoenix scalp
Gold Coast United defender Michael Thwaite believes a good showing at home against the Wellington Phoenix on Saturday night will help in building a massive crowd for Sunday week's free admission match at Skilled Park.
http://www.a-league.com.au/default.aspx?s=newsdisplay&id=37418


Brown back for more
GOLD Coast United livewire James Brown has dined out on the Wellington Phoenix twice already this year, and the young forward will be hoping to do it once more when the two sides face off at Skilled Park on Saturday night.

The weather has been very very average today, rain has stopped for quite a while but it started just before again and has just stopped.

I actually ended up on the same flight as them, to sydney strangely enough.

musa was there, elliott definitely was not.

ricki and the assistant whose name has escaped me sat in business class with the players in economy.

I can confirm apple juice was the drink of choice amongst the squad.

also, hearfield was behaving rather strangely and spent literally half the flight standing by the toilets up the back of the plane!

Bertos should not be starting - hasn't played for a couple of weeks and has been very average this season. Get Rojas starting for crying out loud!!! When he plays things happen.

Bertos is a sub, and Rojas is more suited to being an impact player at this point in the season.Azevo2010-12-11 21:23:18

Phoenix starting line up tonight vs Gold Coast United live on Sky Sport 1 at 11.10pm after the Heart vs Victory derby: Paston Hearfield Durante North Sigmund Brown Lia Muscat Daniel Ifill Greenacre. Subs: Rojas Bertos Macallister Vukovic

Bertos is on the bench, from injury? or because he's been a bit average?

Bertos was definitely not on the plane with the squad so I find that strange.

The halftime show for the melbourne derby game gave the nix odds of 5.40 to win, whereas GCU are quite a lot shorter at only 1.60

Surely we're not such rank outsiders after beating Adelaide last week even with our shocking away record?

I am not surprised, whenever I hear "Phoenix away game", I just think: sh*t.

We will never fully decide who has won the football.
