Re: Pride Round AU- 2024

I agree with you totally, but ….. I suspect that behind all this is a failed marketing ploy to raise attendances by getting more bums on seats. I think Josh, Isobel and the women’s reserve goalie have had their sexual preferences abused for the sake of potential monetary gain. Call me a cynic, I’ve ...

Re: Adelaide United v Melborne Victory Match Day Jamboree!!!©

Was the attendance of 8700 the lowest ever for the Original Rivalry? Was it because of the heat or the disinterest in the Pride Cup? Questions need to be asked. It’s a good job the Victory fans weren’t banned as suggested by the stadium management a few months back. This clash used to mean something.

Re: Who's signed for next season

No Carl doesn’t have the international connection of the other coaches mentioned. But the problem is that the Club has announced its intentions to develop talent and sell on. Would a seasoned professional really want to compete with a seventeen year-old with potential for a starting position? Unless...

Re: Wellington Phoenix v Adelaide United Match Day Jamboree!!!©

Definitely one of the better performances I’ve seen this season. But it could have been that the Nix were stuck in second gear until that well taken penalty woke them up. If United could keep that team together for a couple of years we may become a highly competitive team once again. But that’s high...

Re: Who's signed for next season

With Bovalina, Halloran, VDS, Panashe and Nestory there was a glut of right-sided attackers. I felt sorry for Bernardo as he had performed well at international level with the Joeys. Perhaps CV didn’t want to be accused of nepotism or maybe Bernardo had voiced his opinions. We’ll never know. I rated...

Re: Adelaide United v Perth Glory Match Day Jamboree!!!©

And the second lowest attendance of the season. You can excuse the worst gate against Brisbane, the weather was diabolical. To lose 3400 fans in a week should hit the board in the pocket. That may see them sit up and take notice. You can’t fool all the people all of the time.

Re: Adelaide United v CC Mariners Match Day Jamboree!!!

I think members and walk ins are entitled to expect some form of entertainment. After all it’s their hard earned money that supports the club. Last night’s game was not a spectacle, and that’s what spectators pay for. We’ll know where the club stands by the end of Feb. If they’re not in the top six ...

Adelaide United: for twenty years The People’s Club, for the foreseeable future The Profiteers’ Club.

Re: Melbourne City v Adelaide United Match Day Jamboree!!!©

Well that was just two bang average teams going through the motions. The apathy on the pitch has been reflected in the Matchday Jamboree feed getting one page of comments. My frustration with the game was primarily the inconsistency of the team and the application of poor coaching decisions. That’s ...

Re: Melbourne City v Adelaide United Match Day Jamboree!!!©

Intriguing game. They’ve lost a very useful playmaker in Sahki but still have Aslan. And Nabbout is back to stir things up. And then there’s the Vidmar factor. Looks like a score draw to me.

Re: Unite Round

Combined attendance for last weekend’s games was in excess of 48,000. And with one game a bye (Reds vs WU). So that’s about 20+% more than the much hyped Unite Round. The game is looking pretty healthy to me.

Re: Unite Round

According to data on Austadiums.Com fewer than 40,000 turned up for the entire round. Obviously ran at a loss. Let’s hope lessons have been learned as it’s not a half bad idea.

Re: Preview: Adelaide United - Bisbane Roar 10.12.23

Another potential banana skin game. Always the same when ex-Reds come back to Coopers. And Brizzie has got a few of them: Mileusnic, Calletti, Gomulka and Armiento. I hope we see a slightly different approach from CV.

Re: Adelaide United v Sydney FC Match Day Jamboree!!!©

We lacked leadership. Our captain is too busy trying to score that he forgets he’s a defender and should be organising from the back. As one of nearly 13,000 who attended tonight I think I deserve an explanation from CV as to what happened. Why it happened and what step he’s going to take to ensure ...
