Sorry, but we should be killing the NBL... And it's a realistic opponent to go up against. Too many "all they do is dive" opinions from AFL/rugby land. At least NBL might be open-minded families.
And with the beach, if they don't put games at the hottest time of day, maybe people will consider HAL instead of the beach!
well this sucks
Good riddance, couldn't stand him, for some reason he has always had it in for Melbourne City (biased against ua) even though he supports Man City.
Was one of the pro MVFC fan boys in the Fox Commentary crew I felt.
Bit early for drinking

Quite sad to read! Not many football commentators around either to replace him.

Wtf? pro MVFC commentory Box at Fox? What have you been smoking?
Why not get the best (Martin Tyler) from overseas ?
Tyler is probably in his 70's by now he's been around a long long time!
Maybe he was a pro Smruf then, cause he definitely showed City/Heart any love
Still good though, that Aguero call vs QPR is the most memorable piece of commentary in my life time.
In all seriousness, as I said before, former players like John Aloisi would be ideal I reckon.
I think Simon was very critical in how City haven't grown or formed an identity even with the CFG puppet strings attached within the Melbourne community. To be honest he isn't far from the truth, how much has the club actually grown its presence in Melbourne from Heart to City? crowds certainly haven't and exposure is only slightly better, and you still have this little brother attitude towards Victory even through you guys are richer and have a bigger brand identity attached. If anything I reckon you guys have gone backwards. So I think Simon's criticism is justified imo.
In terms of growing our off field brand and crowds/fans, absolutely.
Least we have gotten our W League Teams and Youth Teams and A League squad right.
So if you agree why the hate for Simon on the criticism?
Because he seemed to always be less than enthused when Melbourne City scored/played well in the games he called? I always thought commentators should be above such bias.
Fowler is goneFtbl have an article stating that fowler won't be returning this season (with the article in my mind suggesting that he won't be returning at all)
Fowler is gone
He had said on uk TV that the club wasn't overly interested in getting him back into the country for the resumption (so I guess option a works on that point)Very surprising. I guess it would be either a) club couldn't afford to keep him
B) offer or upcoming offer in England
Seems somewhat mutual. I guess it helped Brisbane become a finals contender again and gave Fowler some cred for the turnaround.He had said on uk TV that the club wasn't overly interested in getting him back into the country for the resumption (so I guess option a works on that point)
