Ah bit deflated, but felt a lot worse about the Celtics playoff loss earlier in the day to Miami.

Western United are such a nomad club, doesn't even really bother me so much.

But yeah those damn Celts. Still bitter

Not one to make excuses, but the timing of the Asian Champions League, especially with so many fixtures compressed for us in a space few weeks, it had to have been a factor in the end.

Btw grats to Johnny Aloisi and Western United, superb season and achievement

They earned their toilet seat.

Are you OK mate? Don't take it so hard its just a game afterall

and yes I'm very happy for Aloisi too after all the s**t he's been through this would be sweat redemption for him

In hindsight it's probably the story of the season.

Great scenes.

Western United winning. Thank god none of the Wellington players they stole were playing 😛

Looks like they deserved it on the night. Hopefully the crowds can stay around next year for them too.

That's a rap people for season 2021/22! Its been another difficult COVID interrupted season with postponements, rescheduling's as well as a few teething issues with the new broadcasters and streaming service. Hopefully we are past the worst of the COVID pandemic by the time season 22/23 rolls around and we can finally get a normal season in as well as improvements to the Paramount Plus streaming service which needs a major overhaul.

Thankyou to all who contributed to the board over the season it hasn't been easy to promote this league at times but its important to keep the community alive! Hopefully you all stick around for the Socceroos World Cup qualifiers playoff which should be fun and as well as contributing during the off season.

Their future and this championship momentum centres on that stadium being built once that's built they will be alright but it must be done soon like within the next two three years!
