Semi Final Leg 1 - Sydney FC vs Melbourne City - 12/5/23

Maybe it was. I thought I remembered Kosmina explicitly saying he wanted the first leg first. I could be possibly confused with the 2005-06 semi-final when he chose to play at home first?

So if both legs are drawn who wins melb city as they finished above us on the table???.

Extra time and penalties.

That’s the way I remember it

You remember that trip?

Impressive.

There are hazy images of daiquiris, ciders and not much else.

Didn’t we see Kosmina after the away game at a pub having a smoke?

Daiquiris?
You East Sydney YUPPIES!

Got me a bronze GA. Cheaper.

Seems plausible.

Amazingly the only away game we lost that year was the return semi after the insipid 0-0 first leg at home.

Given our home performances this year I would be much more confident of an away result.

Hey I resent that remark. I am (well was) a North Shore Yuppie.

They have been the traditional away day breakfast for at least 15 years. Long may it continue.

I am North Shore turned inner west/City of Sydney. Never had a daiquiri though.
By the sound of the ingredients, I think I’d turn into an Apu-style humming bird of some kind trying get nectar out of Sanjay’s head.

Tbh that was an eventful trip so was memorable. People getting kicked out and coming back in, chairs being stacked in toilets, Duff going all Jonathan Wilson on Kosmina.

It really was the golden age of Brisbane Away.

That hostel with the cheap pints of cider and viewing window into the pool from the bar was a discovery for the ages.

It also birthed the love affair between Ray Park and Downy.

Me too

if Brisbane away doesn’t involve 6am frozen daiquiris is it really Brisbane away?

It makes financial sense.

You should just be banned from frozen daiquiris.

PAX of just under 8,000 just now. That’s probably a good indication of how many tickets have sold since we don’t have to worry about memberships. Hopefully a few thousand more sold over the next few days and adding stadium members will see us get about 15k.

PAX just under 8100 just now. Looks like around 100 tickets sold in 1 hour?
