Facebook message from the club at 7.30pm advised there were less than 100 reserved seats available. Should be a decent turn up if the weather plays its part!

Oh man all the media around this is about how easy this should be for us.
An ineffective 1-0 loss.

Can see something similar to that Welly game last season. Go a couple down. Start playing too late. Let’s say a 2-1 loss here as Welly had a very in form Krishna.
I’m thinking it’ll be a comfortable 2-0 win.
Preview is up now:

Play as well as we did against Newcastle, we win this 2 or 3 nil. Perfect match conditions for Kurz game plan of being dull on the ball and not scoring much and holding out defensively.

On Channel 9’s Today show this morning… they were showing highlights from last night’s games, repeatedly saying how the Jets survived a WU attack led by Besart Beshira, but then I see two of our players featured like this. I’m more used to the mainstream media treating the A-League as some pariah but really good to see.

OH,goody…its FTT time!
Seeing Sydney as such a hot favourite with the bookies makes me feel a bit anxious. Not sure I’m comfortable with that sort of thing.
Can’t recall any time in the past that the odds have been so lean.

Melbourne is a drab and depressing looking city vastly inferior to the glamorous and inspirational appearance of Sydney.

It’s such a depressing city that they’ve had to build Communist Russia style apartment blocks to give the place more appeal…

Melbourne is so unremarkable that it is often, much like Brisbane, mispronounced by foreigners.
Sydney suffers no such shame. *
*Juan Antonio Samaranch announcing the host of the 2000 Olympics is a glorious, not shameful, moment.

Ya have to give Melbourne some credit though,its the most famous Tard city in the world!
I find Federation Square particularly aesthetically displeasing. Docklands as a whole is also the most architecturally kitschy precinct in the country.
Hook turns display quite an overwhelming lack of logic, while pots indicate a substantial inability to hold ones liquor, and indeed will always fail to rectify a Sydneysiders parched state.
