A-League Mens 24/25 - Round 20

[someguyjc]

The NZ derby is sold out, and will be shown on FTA in NZ for the first time. Shame its not on FTA here in Aus but going by the last TV ratings when it was they weren't that good (Only 40k).

3pm (eastcoast time) on a Summer Saturday arvo is never going to rate well here. I reckon it should have been scheduled for 7pm (kiwi time / 5pm eastcoast time).

Wouldn't surprise me if there starts to be talk about an Auckland north shore expansion if Black Knights momentum continues.

Thankfully Adam Kersey is not refereeing an important game.

 

[Vieri]

Sydney and Victory are the two games I never miss for some reason.

We don't exactly have a rival.

Now that Wellington have sheep shaggin' buddies.

How do you do these tables here?

Well Stephen Conroy as a senator was reknown for not talking shop. So the answer is we will have no idea what to expect. The bigger question is what did Conroy and the former CEO come to blows about.

How do you do these tables here?

This site uses BBcode, so I just code it by hand. It does help if you have some coding experience with basic HTML. If you hit the code button (it's the one that looks like [ ]) you can view how I put it together. You can also do it via the table button which should also work fine but may lack some customisations. It'll get the job done though.
