Well done to all in the YF zone tonight - a fantastic night's
entertainment. OK, it wasn't one of the great games but the
atmosphere was brilliant for such a small bunch of fans.
We copped a few bottles from the riff raff upstairs, which
instantly saw a fair sized police presence flood down among us,
presumably to bravely throw their bodies in front of any other
missiles. But as we all know from the papers football is a
hooligans' sport, so we knew the risks.
My wife, who has never been to a football match, had the time
of her life and even though she's a born and bred Aussie she was
screaming and yelling for the Phoenix. In fact it was a bit odd
hearing her bellowing "We are Southern!" and "Melbourne takes it up
the a*se, doo dah, doo dah!" Sometimes I think I don't know her at
all....
Oh, and I loved the Five Amigos and the guy taunting Archie
for being too small!

You got a fair bit of "Sky time" and did us proud. Great to
see numbers growing for us at away games....

yeah, saw the cops in the YF zone on sky; pleased they were there
to 'protect and serve' rather than give u a hard time; and weird
seeing the Amigos in big floppy hats - is that the new YF
fashion statement?

Yeah good job lads. Can't wait to visit the tards again in January
but I'm still trying to rustle up the money.

While we're at it, maybe we could replace the drummers with a mariachi band?

Great effort from the yellow fever supporters in melbourne at the
game on saturday night, im sure the boys appreciated it. All
started well when we got a police escort to the game from young and
jacksons, they dropped us door to door couldn't believe it! Then we
took over the southern end, that went down a treat. Would have been
40ish vocal supporters who gave as good as we got from the victory
fans, few classic chants came out "wheres your southern wheres your
southern wheres your southern end" soon followed by "wheres your
captain" highlight was the phoenix subs giving the bring back
bertos banner the big thumbs up, someone suggested it should hav
said give back bertos as perth wouldnt let him go at the start of
the season. Lia's strike was class and went down a treat, was
suprising how many aussies supporting phoenix were sitting with us,
bumped into O'Dors cousins and a few other distant relatives all
good for the nix. We got a good reception at a few pubs after the
game, few too many beers and don't remember much after that, word
with the victory supporters was they want merrick gone! Cheers to
Ginger_eeijt for liasing with local bobbys before the game and for
the flags. Congrats to Terry who become the supporter to attend
most away games this year - lucky bastard. You lads coming over for
the january 11th game will have a ball over here will be worth the
money - id say if the team keeps improving as we are you'll be in
for something special!
If anyone found a bone carving at the front of the southern
end stand where we were can you pm me, too many beers and too much
jumping when we scored and i lost it somehwere!!!

Those guys with the yellow sheets rapped around them, the straw
hats and the yellow pool noodles looked great.
