A-League Round 3 discussion/Tips

[perthblue]

4 Diego's on SEN said the crowd was 11K what a load of s**t! Then an official from AAMI Park phoned in and said it was more like 7K lol
Scott Munn must have told the 4 idiots it was 11k

Great win my Perth, well deserved!!

What did Cahill do? was he even on the park?

[EDIT] Crowd just announced on SEN as 8,077K so the Official from AAMI was about right!

That's really poor tbh I know it rained before the match but the win last Saturday and the Cahill effect surely they should be attracting well over 10K

Cahill is * all bruz

And people doubt my rainman-like abilities to estimate crowds...

From page 1 of the thread:

There wouldn't be a person over 8k tonight (although it won't stop them announcing an attendance that is just over 10k.)

Clearly an issue City need to work on, poor weather didn't help though.
Problem is a lot of people won't go and embrace the league as they are euro-snobs.

The weather didn't help, but no doubt it was disappointing nonetheless.

Fantastic win. Keogh silenced the doubters last night. Apart from the pass for the second goal Cahill was nowhere to be seen and Rostyn is captain for a reason.

I'd feel sorry for City/Heart fans if they had any.

it might not be just the eurosnob reason.

i havent had any dealings with such people. my football (playing or former) mates are all supporters of the a-league.

i have a feeling that those who barrack for a euro team, but aren't nor have played the game, are those who shun the aleague

Not quite - the FFA did research a little while ago that found that up to 75% of juniors don't have an A-League team (which is the research that led to the "you've gotta have a team" campaign).

I know you're not referring to kids in your post - but in 10 years those team-less kids are going to be the adults who still don't have a team.

Is there a more annoying supporter group than the Mariners? I almost have to watch their games on mute - the tetris theme makes me want to rip my ears off.

 

[peternorth]

thats fine

 

[peternorth]

the FFA should only sell seats to marriners home games on the far side so the stadium looks populated

 

[Greasyrhys]

Please Reds, just win...

 

[Greasyrhys]

FOB

 

[Cristiano Ronaldo]

Besh!!

 

[Zidane98]

BERISHAAAAAAAAAA

 

[Zidane98]

We're due a win in hicksville. Been a long time between drinks!!

 

[Zidane98]

Wtf? Should be a red to Isais! !!

 

[nobbyiscool]

I love that the Victory away bay is making more noise than a City home crowd last night

 

[Balony_pony16]

Any chance Guardiola can pass the ball?

 

[Magma]

dreadfully lacking the final ball. carrusca would be mighty handy. so would cirio mind.

 

[peternorth]

[Magma]
