No sooner had I said, "you can build a title on this defence" and we'd conceded two.
Be nice to get somewhere near and full, fit squad.


And...Brisbane's shirt numbers were falling off last night. That's how bad they're going.

As silly as it sounds I reckon we had too many inclusions at once. Will see what they serve up this afternoon.

Agreed.

It's quiet in here when Adelaide United win.

I didn't see it, but a good win on Saturday night.
Le's get some consistency going and we might do some damage come finals time.

Getting the full team on the park would certainly help. I think we’ve done amazingly well with the second string side that’s been out there

Big game tonight - win and we get within two points of Melbourne City who are in third spot.

Fair effort tonight coming from 2-0 down and also down to 10 men playing against 12...
The refereeing was as pathetic as Okon’s tactics. Could’ve actually won it in the end.

This squad has ticker and they are playing for Kurz.

Impressive choke from the opposition Saturday night.

3 wins in 20 matches suggests it was more of a choke by the team who came back for the draw.

Say wha? Two goals down, 10 men on the pitch due to inept ref decision-making and it's a choke by the drawing team?

Great fightback for sure, but they were at home to the scrubbers of the competition and were 2-0 down.

This is the first time in 20 plus years of following soccer that I've seen a team with 10 men come back from 0-2 down being called chokers. Soccer nuffie logic

I'm not a soccer nuffie, I take offence to that....

Shouldn't have been 2-0 down to the scrubbers!

One was an own goal

Even I will agree that red card was ridiculous and the Victory player should have got it for his pathetic dive but I did laugh.
The A League is a complete joke atm.

Complete farce. Feel so sorry for Kurz. He must be wishing he never came

FFS.

THE Western Sydney Wanderers have handed their controversial supporters group the Red and Black Bloc a ban after they released flares and engaged in clashes with NSW Police during the Sydney derby.
The club sent a letter to members indicating the closing of their Active Support Area for their upcoming home game against Perth Glory on Sunday 4 March.

“Pursuant to the activities in the Active Support Area at Allianz Stadium last Sunday and in accordance with the letter to members issued on 12 July 2017, the Western Sydney Wanderers Football Club has resolved to close down the Active Support Area for the upcoming home match this weekend against Perth Glory,” the letter read.

“The Western Sydney Wanderers maintains its position that it will not accept offensive behaviour being displayed at its matches and also will not accept the illegal use of incendiary devices.”

The letter also indicated that an investigation is ongoing into those directly responsible for lighting flares, and suggested that this action was made “unavoidable” by a small group.

The active area will be reopened for the following match against the Wellington Phoenix on March 10, but the club reserved the right to close the area down “for a further indefinite period” if any further breaches occur.

The supporters group were heavily criticized over the weekend after once again igniting flares in the stands during Sunday evening’s match against Sydney FC at Allianz Stadium and sporting shirts that read ‘F** FFA.’

Additionally, details have emerged of clashes between supporters and police at the match, with the A-League threatening to dock the Wanderers points owing to fan behaviour.

Good work, Wanderers. Although, they were probably pushed into it.

Why are you posting this, Booney? Just curious.
