There new slogan should be

Can't do much with the cattle unfortunately. Everyone else strengthened their squad whilst we brought bargain basement hacks. The owners/management are fully to blame, there was a reason Pep and Petrillo left so abruptly and the players are still at loggerheads with the owners.

Haven't seen the advertiser, don't like Dogs fans letting off flares either, don't approve of violence at Unley either.
Did think WSW fans before game seemed normal. I walked through a big crowd of them near the Queen's Head before the game. Looked as though there were families with kids present. I really don't know how they fit in with that mob I described, that was another story altogether.
Just describing what I witnessed after all.

I didn't foresee the advanced progress of Kamau, thought he was a year away from producing what he has this year. No coincidence that when Mauk replaced Jeggo our form took a dramatic upwards turn.
Will stand by my thoughts on recruiting, Babalj was an ordinary pick up and Dugandzic was terrible.
Even through my criticism I still attended week in week out, missed only 3 home games and went to 6 away games also so not sure if that means being "back on board". If only more people were members and not bandwagoners we would be in a far better position financially to keep this squad intact

We started winning towards the end of November. Jeggo left in the middle of January didn't he? He was still there for at least 7 games after the turnaround. Very harsh on Babajl was injured in pre-season and then cops a serious knee injury.

Just describing what I witnessed after all.
My cousin drove over with his family from WS. He has a 12 yo girl and 13 yo boy and wife who go to all the home games. Hadn't seen him in over 10 years and have only been to 2 United games before so took up his offer of sitting with him in the RBB. We were not far from the fence that separates them from the members stands. Went to the Queens Head for a drink before the game and marched with them from outside the Cathedral through to the Bob Quinn gates.
The atmosphere they created was brilliant I thought. The singing got louder when United kicked the first goal. I did a quiet fist pump to myself, not wanting to reveal myself seeing I was stuck on that side of the fence! My Dad and sister came too. I admit I was nervous in the week leading up, but they were harmless and fun. Quite a few kids and all were friendly enough at the pub. They were passionate and loyal. Much like the old end to enders at Centrals.
The two intruders on the pitch were actually Adelaide United fans. They were feral as they got escorted up the race near where I was. The seats were broken from Wanderers fans standing and dancing on them. That was not needed I thought, but wasn't like it was deliberately ransacking the place. There were a few who answered back aggressively to the taunting from the AU supporters on the other side of the fence. I left straight after the final
whistle, but Dad stayed with my cousin and was most offended when they turned their back when AU got presented with the trophies.
All pretty harmless though and it made for a sensational atmosphere. I felt lucky to experience what it must be like at a big time soccer game in my home town. The game itself was highly entertaining as well. A great day out.

Yes we won a few games whilst Jeggo was here but thought we really stepped up once Mauk came in. Mauk just clicked instantly with the team and was a real catalyst for our finals push.
Babalj isn't good enough, if fit and not injured I still wouldn't have him in by starting XI
