We Are The Reds

If it's a home game like this week I'll always be there because supporting the team and being in the crowd trumps all the stupidity of the idiots who run the game. But I respect that others will make other decisions. As to the Grand Final in Sydney, it's perhaps the most foolish of a stream of fooli...

Great game to be at. Where were the rest of the fans though? First half was beautiful football but we just don't score big. Second half more even until Nestor came on and scared the shit out of the Nix. The number of professional fouls on him must be mounting up to some sort of record. He scares peo...

As Otto said, Jovanovic and Yull looked lost in the first half. They've both done good work lately but they're both emerging players. We seriously miss Clough, who was starting to look the goods. Our backline has been smashed by injury and inconsistency and we need one experienced and calming influe...

Is it just me, or did the ref just let CCM do their shithousery from the first minute to the last? Time wasting, kicking the ball away, blocking the ball being played from free kicks? Ref does nothing. Walk slowly to get the ball for a goal kick and then stand there ball in hand chatting to the ful...

Not our night. Another pretty poor showing. Carl got it wrong again. But that's football. Maybe getting the slump out of the way before finals is a good thing. Jovanovic looked lost at sea. Halloran still way off his best. Losing Clough a killer. Beautiful night to be at Hindmarsh and a shame to hav...

One of - if not the best - game of A-League football I've ever seen. Two very good teams playing decent football with the desire to win. And even Evans couldn't stuff it up, despite returning to form in the second half. Some of our play was simply beautiful. And combined with real strength on the ba...

Carl is calm. Carl is calm. Carl is calm. Repeat after me....
I think he'll need to retire early or he'll have a stroke. His display when they scored their fourth was apocalyptic.

I take back (almost) everything I've ever said about Evans. Man's a genius!

A dead-set lucky win. But that's football. A wonder goal from Irankunda. It would be nice to see some of our more seasoned pros remembering why they play and what enlivens the fans. Goody's been off the pace. Halloran looks disinterested - but they still produce. The real issue in central. Clough ha...

You are joking! No-one on the post. Schoolboy stuff. FFS!!!

It's not a bad side, but I'd have Warland in for Poppa. That was a very bad pen to give and I think he's struggling at the moment. Massive rise to prominence and now he needs to settle.

Irankunda cost us two points through either selfish or stupid play tonight. Flashes of skill aren't enough. You could see what Halloran thought. Yes, he's young and exciting but - if you're going to believe your own publicity, you'd better deliver. Not happening. Poor all round in many ways tonight....

After last week I'm almost too scared to go to Hindmarsh. I have such happy memories of the last time we smashed them but we are not travelling well just now.....and the heat....
"Looking forward to it" is not really how I feel.

Will possibly be able to think rationally about this in about 3 days from now.
Maybe.

Could have been worse.
Not much worse.
Dark day.
