Steve Boy-of-Bucket ;)

Just to clarify - are they 'lame arse' dildos or lame 'arse dildos'? It is hard to tell with your accent sometimes.

The court case named him as Steve Dječak-od-Kanta as far as I remember. Sounded pretty Bosnian to me.

Bloody hell Mono. Your team does not make it easy to watch. Congratulations on another very hard fought win. Your team does not seem to employ the midfield at all or when it does it has very little composure. The whole first half was marred by long balls to no effect completely avoiding any...

It is funny but I am neutral on the winner at this stage. I want Victory to be strong in the league again. I would rather beat you when you are at the top of your game than when you are like us now. You play good, hard football generally speaking and I like to see that rewarded over a low...

Back of shorts is a place crying out for sponsorship...

I have a fond spot for South Melbourne entirely due to the Mono factor. The rest of their supporters are probably still a pack of bastards :).

Thanks someguyjc. I have never realised that AAMI Park is under 30k - I thought it was at least 50k. A quick glance on Google says 30,050 capacity but that might include toilet seats too. Will obviously take a sell out to top the Auckland game then NoMates. The speed the tickets sell will be a...

I am not ashamed to admit I was a bit bothered by the thought of our national comp being decided in New Zealand (assuming Auckland were allowed to host it - I did not pay attention in the lead up).

I expect 40k+ to the final and would not be surprised at 50k+. As they advertised at the Cairo Museum - Remains to be seen ;)

I switched on to Auckland v Victory at the 40 minute mark and it was a very good game to watch. Great intensity by both sides with Victory applying consistent team pressure and Auckland applying their regular fast break pressure. Edit: Auckland also do build pressure very well too. I see their...

It felt like he just got tired of the constant contact by both sides and the constant appealing and just said I'm not calling anything unless someone gets hurt. Just one of many examples, but a very obvious one - near the end a player was grabbed and swung round by the defender - no way he...

It is a real excitement game of top quality football. Fast, intense, physical and skilful play all over the park. I do get tired of the constant whinging by everyone involved. It is a physical contest by both teams but both are claiming to be victims every time. I will call that the flow on...

It is about America - shouldn't it be moved to the Biggliest Fugliest thread? :P :)

The game was often hectic and didn't relax into a normal flow for quite long periods of time with a better (more competitive/combative) first half for the neutral to enjoy the swings of the game. Both teams played some good football and set up their chances but City were just playing at a...

It was one of the few times that I have considered the use of the dark arts as actual football. He didn't just make contact and dive - he sucked the keeper in and with astonishing composure let his legs be scythed out from under him. I hate interpretive diving on principle - he actually earned...

If we go harder with intensity we stand a very good chance of being ripped apart at the back by Wellington if we continue to show defensive frailty. Barbarouses loves it when players push high and hard and leave him space to operate in behind and we know he is good at it. Maybe intensity...

Yes, we play tonight against the Nix. First game under Valkanis but so little time since he took over that only the team selection is really under his control. Looking forward to seeing what we will see regardless. I thought the Mariners v Glory game said "high heat/humidity" with both teams...
