Hoping for some more Marden magic ...

I like watching football at Marden.

[Obarizk]

It will not take any magic to beat CCM unless they sign some good players before the match.

[Obarizk]

And they have signed some old former EPL defender who played under Mulvey in Thailand, Kalifa Cisse

[ZANZIBAR]

ffa cup has become so important in regards to building momentum for players and fans. Really hope we get this first up game in the bag

Wednesday 1st of August at Marden. Kick off 7pm local time.

[RedsUnited]

Tickets for members go on sale on Wednesday. If I remember correctly from skimming the email, it's 12 bucks for adults.

Will they move the game to fit Usain Bolt in ??

Genuine question as you could imagine media interest will be huge, will get a lot of neutrals in too

[Obarizk]

Usain Bolt can go jump off the Sydney Harbour Bridge, I don't want the drug cheating piece of *** anywhere near the A-league.

He is also only trialling with the Mariners so I highly doubt he would play this match unless trialist are allowed to play FFA cup matches. That would be a fucking joke.

I hope not. Even assuming the Bolt trial consists of a short-term registration (akin to the guest player) of some sorts that allows him to play, it would be great to see Marden straining at the seams.

Well that's true..... if he gets to play I reckon it's best to get there early to find a spot

Even if he makes an appearance as a spectator it'll be big. Fox may even put it on TV for exposure.

Pretty sure Marden doesn’t meet the telecast standards for fox sports unless they bring in better lighting.

[flavze]

Marden has met the lighting standard in the past so unless something has changed it will be fine.

[Stuckey]

It's been telecast before on the live stream. My guess would be that Fox would just need to invest more into an actual TV telecast. If it can happen at other local grounds around the country no reason why it can't happen at Marden. If Bolt is present the interest will be massive!

From the Fox Sports website, on Comets' 4-0 win v Gwelup Croatia:
"The lone remaining South Australian representatives ran out convincing winners in the west, slamming home four goals to earn progression to the Round of 16"

hard not to be the lone remaining SA representatives when they only give your federation 1 spot, innit
