We Are The Reds

The stadium seat cushion is cruel and unusual punishment for those of us who live overseas

That said I'll be paying my membership once again

I am truly looking forward to all the pissant entries

I don't think Kossie has a future in the A-League unless he is prepared to head overseas and reinvent himself somewhat. Farina coached PNG, Merrick took on Hong Kong, Kossie needs to do something similar. Head North, get a gig and run with it. Hanging around Australia hoping to step up once more, do...

.... Bayern Munich. German football certainly is on the move. Even Dortmund now makes the top 10. Bayern Munich (£569m) Manchester United (£554m) Real Madrid (£411m) Barcelona (£379m) Chelsea (£277m) Arsenal (£271m) Liverpool (£239m) Manchester City (£220m) AC Milan (£174m) Borussia Dortmund (£172m)...

There's a great excel spreadsheet that is sent around every month by Damien Davies (I'm on the mailing list) which has some basic info on every player's performance during the month. It even includes Australians playing in Vanuatu and Fiji! Exceptionally comprehensive. I'm still waiting for Troisi t...

I'm a little worried about RedsUnited and Schultzy suddenly needing XXL's and blaming the shift on shrinking shirt sizes :D I like the collars for some reason. I may try to pick up an away shirt when I'm in Adelaide next though I will check out the polo shirt. I have one from around 2008-ish and hav...

Yes, I found myself wanting Bayern to win but not wanting Dortmund to lose

The joke in our house last night was that there was one German team playing and one team from Bavaria (Bayern), snigger, snigger.

We had a few beers wondering who would win the final, Prussia or Bavaria.

Great game in the end!

I like the letter except for the end bit where you threaten to encourage others to leave. I don't like the bit where I'm to be instructed to not renew my membership. It's my bloody membership and I'll do with it as I please. I am happy to receive petitioners who wish to influence the decision I mak...

So Griffin goes and then what? What is the plan?

Sounds a great weekend. There's an off-chance that I may have to be back in Adelaide for work around then so I may see what I can wrangle.

Tight, very tight.

Possibly too tight. Much will depend on the shape he is in at training however it will be bit of an ask.

Hopefully Dario gets a look in.

Buriram are through to the quarters after doing over our old bunnies, Bunyodkor.

A superb effort from the Thai outfit.

That's a lot of free to air for Adelaide.

Fridays are somewhat better for me now that I've moved an hour forward from Phnom Penh to Manila

Watched Seongnam take apart Beijing last night. A great game that ended with 10 on the field from Seongam and only 9 from Beijing (all double yellows). Some good end to end football and plenty of drama.
