Bit of a reverse on week one. Nice to get the win with 2 bangers.
No losses since late November, we're getting in to gear

Starting to play with a big of rhythm as well which is nice. Still think we're a fair bit off of our best form.

I feel this too. We're clicking as a unit now so much better than earlier in the season, confidence across the group is really good.
Its always hard with turnover of players and the coaching was ordinary too. Glad to see things are on the improve. Its a pretty open comp this year. Teams that looked good early have fallen away.
Bit of interest around for Jmac. Hopefully we can hang on to him

30 now, one more roll of the dice overseas maybe.
Or he can chase the all time Australian goal scoring record (NSL and A League combined). Just up to him on what's best for his situation
More squad news
1-0 down at the break, could have easily been 2.
We're getting plenty of the ball but can't find the space in the box to create clear cut chances.
They're giving Talbot space on the right to put the extra defender to crowd the box, so let's hope he can be more aggressive and take a chance or two which should then crack open more central space.
Midfield need to stop the turnovers to help our backline

Through connections, sat in the player family area for the women's game against United. Saw Patrick Kisnorbo at the bar. Wonder if he is thinking about putting up his hand for managing City again next season.
Fair finish from Antonis. Called for him to "hit it" as soon as the ball was squared up.

My missus also bumped into Patty K at our local shopping centre outside Baker's Delight a couple of weeks ago and said hi.

Good luck to Irankunda when he moves to Germany but boy does he need to do some growing up. Got the strop last night when things didn't go his way something bad. Was not doing the team thing and wanted to take potshots at goal from 30 yards out every time.
Not the Japanese striker but the other striker was pretty annoyed with him shooting on sight rather than playing the through ball.
Had a long chat with Jamie Young after the game ended before going to say hello to the travelling fans by himself.

Great for him, terrible for us.
We have struggled since his departure, not coincidentally.

44 days ago, 8-1 in our favour.
OUT: Arslan, Behich, Souprayen, Sakhi
IN: Nabbout, Politidis, Hall, Jeggo
5-1 against.
Arslan suspended and Behich out were really big losses, but I didn't expect the difference to be 11 goals (net).

Hope these 2 honourable draws are a sign we are starting to meld and develop into some wins.

Why the delayed start? We are not the home team.
