First past the post is the only true champion in soccer but being an Arsenal fan I reckon you would like a finals series in the EPL ;)


Don't celebrate if we do win a grand final one day, that would be hyporcrictal.

What a game! That first half felt like it went forever, it was amazing. I went with a Victory supporter, so the result was extra enjoyable.

United have signed 21yo striker Tomi Juric for the remainder of the season.
He has been playing in the top flight of the Croatian league for a couple of seasons

As predicted by h78, after a stirring faux GF performance against Victory, now comes the letdown back to being weak defensively and occasionally threatening up front = average :o

Not his fault that McKain is one of the worst defenders to play in the league and stupidly got sent off once again.
Momentum changed after his send off and the equaliser was always going to come.
Better effort by the lads today, 2 good goals and created several decent chances, impressed with Juric again.
Defence still looks leakier than a Afghan boat, Eugene did gift a howler but also pulled off some excellant saves and afterall I think I can cut him slack the anmount of times he has saved our arse

No, I know. I just figured it was what we do in this state.

However, I do hope they find someone other than V to coach the side.

FEARS are rising that Adelaide United's $250,000 sponsor Unleash Solar is set to collapse, endangering 50 jobs and another 100 contractors.

South Australia's Commissioner for Consumer Affairs Paul White today raised concerns that the company was refusing to meet customer warranties because it could not expect to get replacement panels from China within the three to six month claim period.

Not a bad first half by United, looked a bit shaky in the opening 10 minutes and Eugene pulled off some good saves. Settled after the initial onslaught and created a couple of decent chances. Look good out wide but lacking a bit with the final cross

United win 2-0 and seal a finals berth.
Good result, the Heart have won 7 of their last 9 at home.
United totally dominated them tonight and were probably a little unlucky not to win by more

Good result, haven't seen the game yet, twinkle toes Ramsey usually scores when he doesn't have time to think about it ;)

Very true, Legs.

Good result from us, despite Heart's lowly position.

Finishes 1-1
Referee and the assistants were an absolute disgrace tonight.
Newcastle had 2 goals disallowed in the first half that looked good, they also should of had 2 penalties, McKains tackle was clumsy.
Then Vidosic has an injury time winner disallowed for no apparant reason
