There are surely more fans of the code of association football in Melbourne that would gladly rock up for an FFA Cup Final involving a NPLV team than there are CCM fans in the Central Coast, TBH.

Along with PBSC v Fire when they can beat Caloundra.

Quote:The draw for the Semi Finals will be conducted on Friday 31 October 2014 at 7.00pm AEDT at Sydney’s FOX SPORTS studios. The draw will be shown LIVE on FOX SPORTS 1 and 1HD during the broadcaster’s KickOff program in the lead up to the Hyundai A-League match between Melbourne City FC and Adelaide United. Former Socceroos captain and Hyundai A-League Premiership winning coach John Kosmina and Hyundai A-League Championship winning captain and current Sydney United 58 FC coach Mark Rudan will conduct the draw. The draw will see the four remaining clubs allocated numbers in alphabetical order and the four numbered balls placed into the one pot.

For mine Adelaide v Mariners winner is the strong favourite for the title.
Adelaide look the goods and certainly have the edge over Perth after last week.
The Mariners last match before the final is in Wellington. Surely the FFA wouldn't then make them then travel to Perth for a midweek game? Surely? However, with the boot on the other foot, I can't see Perth travelling to the east coast midweek and winning. Would the FFA reschedule some games maybe?

1. Bentleigh vs Adel Utd Tues 11th or Wed 12th, CCM vs PG Wed 26th - Bentleigh and Central Coast/Perth to be at home
2. Adel Utd vs CCM Wed 12th, Bentleigh vs PG Tues 25th or Wed 26th - Bentleigh and Adelaide/CCM to be at home
3. Adel Utd vs PG Wed 12th, Bentleigh vs CCM Wed 26th or Thurs 27th - Bentleigh and Adelaide/Perth to be at home
so it looks like either some short/2 day turnarounds or definite Wednesday night cup semi final action is on the cards
based on my previous post my guess is that Adel Utd vs CCM will be Wednesday 12th November and Glory will play against Bentleigh on Tuesday 25th November just so that one of the semis is on a Tuesday "cup night", it will be rough for Bentleigh to have another month between games if that is the case
