So we went with Westgate did we? I'm not sure that's the most efficient way to make it to Footscray, Sunshine or Ballarat.

 

[acm21]

Westgate should be a good game

 

[giggler99]

Ummmmm.. not sure what this is but OK guess they have a “few“ fans than.

 

[gaskin]

Should be another high scoring game for the Glory. We'll probably lose 5-3 or something like that.

 

[Andonis1997]

We'll beat CCM.

I'm never confident but this seems like a game we'll win.

Is it true MacArthur are charging Away Smurf fans 50 dollars to attend tomorrow's game ? To be fair, my mob have also done something similar for Home derbies against Victory.
It's s**t form overall, and not a good look for the A League and football in this country.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Ibini is a top shelf player. What a goal, no keeper could have kept that out !!!

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Does anyone here actually support MacArthur or Western United? Would be interested to know.

One of my good friends is a WUFC fan ex Victory fan (he lives down that way)

Not that I know of.

We have 2 Sydney fc fans here who post. There’s a wander fan who trolls giants pages, but haven’t see a chuck steak fan yet.

**** off VARctory . Cheats.

 

[Joe9]

farce of a decision

 

[giggler99]

I don't know, line ball calls like that should always go to the attacking side. I'll be pissed if it happens to us.
But that's the problem with technology it eliminates the human element.

 

[Colonial]

By the letter of the law it was offside.

But those are given every single day of the week without it so.......

 

[Joe9]

looks like it's going to be one of those games with a 100 chances and finishes 0-0

 

[Joe9]

do these guys actually practice shooting?

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

I'm suprised the ref hasn't started booking people for abuse. He's putting up with a fair bit.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

That was a penalty to United. VARctory riding their luck again.

 

[Joe9]

awful game.

players told to show "passion" as it's classified as a derby so we get 90min of players hacking each other and handbag fights

How was it a penalty? all I saw was two players falling and Berisha just got in the way

berisha's spud teammate cost him a goal

 

[Greenery]

Pierias and Wales need to come on, 25 to go and still on the bench come on Rudes

 

[Joe9]

lol handball in the box ignored
