Re: How "mainstream" is Adelaide United - or solid support?

I just remember the relentless AFL-bashing on Sydney FC boards a few years back, making it out that it was unacceptable for any football fan to support them. I was like, WTF? In fairness the AFL don't do themselves any favours by being paranoid and pseudo-totalitarian in the way it presents and pro...

Re: COOPERS!!! On the shirt!- The wish comes true!

Dear Santa,

Can I please have a new Adelaide United shirt for Christmas ?

Re: How "mainstream" is Adelaide United - or solid support?

It makes even more stupid the cretins who try and promote a kind of neo-McCarthyist puritanism, by looking on rival codes as a kind of enemy not to be tolerated. Yeah, bloody Mick McCarthy - he's so intolerant. I heard Wolves players are not even allowed to discuss other sports in the dressing room...

Re: Ideas for average Joe to boost Adelaide United

Well I've got you all beat - this season my ex-wife bought a membership, and because we both live in Gawler she bums a lift off me to every game.

No greater love can a man show for his team

P.S. No megaphones please ! They sound awful and completely ruin the affect of a spontaneous chant.

Re: Adelaide United @ Adelaide Oval

Well I have e-mailed the club asking for claification and if they come back and say no - to get into the Chappell stand you have to buy a blue reserve ticket and that my red membership is good for only the GA areas I'm gonna spew big time ! What? Why would the story say RED members get access to th...

Re: Red faces: Dodd cleared

He got involved in a minor fracas after the final whistle of the game against Brisbane. He was going off about the play leading up to the Roar’s injury time equalizer when Roar keeper Theoklitos clearly handled the ball outside the area. There was a bit of push and shove between him and one of the B...

Re: Adelaide United @ Adelaide Oval

"2010/11 RED Members Adelaide United’s RED Members will have the option of sitting in the Chappell Stand" I reckon they've stuffed up on this - it says in the e-mail red members can sit in the Chappell Stand, but then the pricing bit goes on about a "blue reserved" ticket that is needed to sit in th...

Re: Osama Malik back to the Reds?

Would be nice if they could bring Marone back too.

Re: Basic Football

I haven’t seen the goal again since watching it live, but from memory I don’t reckon a man on the post would’ve made much difference – Sigmund got a lot of power into the header and I don’t recall it going in the corner of the net, more just left of centre.
