Yellow Fury vs NQ Fury (Match Fred)

Having looked at a couple of threads on todays game im know convinced that i wasnt there at all and must have just thought i attended. On another matter i wish Leo could add some variety to his free kicks insted of trying to repeat his earlier effort everytime as thats just not working.

That's an echo of my thoughts after Ferrante's header straight at he keeper.

Sorry I mean Greenacre. Hey I am Dyslexic which is why for most of my posts, I have to edit to save my embarrassment. It's my problem with phonetic analysis.

I have asked the question a couple of times and some people have response with yes.

I tend to forget to bold any highlighted points while I struggle with the dyslexic corrections. But I try when I remember to bold the points as it would be helpful. But I do forget. So forgive and bear with me.

that's the way I look at it too, I mean with each week that goes by I'm sure all the players and management get more and more rarked up. Its a matter of time before we do some damage on a consistant basis

hopefully against ccm and gcu!!!!!!

we play better when we're the underdogs.

but in saying all this NO MORE GIVING MONEY TO THE TAB!!!!!!!!!

I was annoyed at the number of off-the-ball body checks in the game which the referee did not blow up for us. Maybe with the extra officials that FIFA is trying out at the Europa League will help here.

That sums up my feelings quite well!
I guess its important for us and more importantly for the players to stay positive at this stage.

watching the highlights made it worse for me, Can't believe Daniel missed that, but thats football for ya

QUestionable refereeing ?  In the A-League ?  You've lost me...

Commensurate with the standard of play.

Im finding it real hard going through this thread - feel the same way as most of you - a bit of disappointment, a bit of anger,a bit of annoyance and a bit of frustration.
But thats football for ya.
The only real positive out of this week is that we are only 6 points adrift from the top two.I believe if we just hang in there, everything will hopefully fall into place and we will start winning sooner rather than later.

hmmm...thought about that.  Didnt trust ferrante in the middle? lia was run out?

...Even though we could all see it cumming. Stevo2009-09-21 00:06:39

pretty dissapointed. Especially looking back at our chances. Especially Daniels and Ferrante's. Think we could have easily been 3 or 4 up before the end. But thats what has happening each week.

Think it calls for perhaps making the hard calls when it comes to that bench. We need impact players and Ferrante for me isnt it. Caceres YES. him and Daniel are beginning a new rivalry for a start I feel. I would be happy for Daniel to have competition because every time he gets complacent his workrates start dropping. Either one could start for me and both offer impact if coming off a bench. Ferrante could be given the cut, especially when McKain is back.

I would look at a bench with Rojas/ Chen/ Costa instead of Michael next week. And Hearfield really needs to step it up for me too. He hasn't under achieved for me but when you are coming off a bench every week, you really need to be putting your hand up and I don't think he has proven himself for all the time he has been given. With so many players wanting a chance who don't make the bench, I want to see more pressure on these guys to step it up or lose their spot

Agreed -  to those saying we're not going to be in the top 6, remember that in both of the previous seasons we've gone into the last month or so within reach of a top 4 spot. This was when we were merely "competitive" (read "hanging in there and not getting belted")

You can play the most attractive football in the world but at the end of the day someone has to stick the ball in the back of the net. The big problem for the Phoenix is that we have got loads of players who just are not natural goal scorers. Bertos, Ferrante, Daniel, Hearfield, Lia, Muscat, Lochy etc have NEVER scored goals on a regular basis.

Although I am sure many of you are already aware of this...

1. The Fury goal went in at 93:35 in what was supposed to have been 3 minutes of stoppage time.

2. Phoenix are now unbeaten in last 9 home games.

Its a minimum of three minutes

Forget the time added Why was that not a penalty  eight minutes to go

Think he did it so that he could stack the midfield and protect the lead, ie one less attacking midfielder, one more central midfielder

But you have to win your home games!

Well, since we missed more sitters again this week, does that mean the midfield rotation policy will see Diego back for the next game against CCM?

I do think Ferrante is very much a journeyman player, he has never really struck any decent shots at goal.

And Tim Brown, while he provides some good work in midfield, I wish he would leave the goal scoring chances to someone with a better than 25% chance of getting one in the net.

Which means people need to get into the box. We definitely lost a lot of our go-forward when Ifill came off, and that's why it's crap we don't have a striker warming the woodwork, instead of another over-supply of journeymen midfielders.Ard Righ2009-09-21 07:48:45

shattered boys but thats football for you but i agree cant we get that luck for once but i guess thats why i love the phoenix so much

Which substitution did that ?

The injury sub for Ifill, the injury sub for Muscat or the like for like sub of Caceras on for Daniel.

gold coast unbeaten all season..yeah right...smeltz 2 yellows =red...how sad....couple of positives from the weekend....
