Kogarah is great for me but it is logistically poor for "high risk" Derbies. They have to shut the main gate to all but the few away supporters making it difficult for the majority to get in or out. I would rather travel an hour more, for the same sized crowd at Homebush than have an over policed game wreck my experience at Kogarah.

What a fkn surprise. So sick of our fixture being packed a derby and other high pressure fixtures at the start of the season whilst everyone else gets to cruise through for a comfortable start.

Other fixtures? 

Is anyone able to get past the paywall? Would be interested to see the full article 

Details are:

Victory hosting city round 1 at Marvel.
Marvel's seats will be in for four out of the five Victory home games there
Western united playing away against wellington first round. Playing at home round 2
City's first home game is against Adelaide.
WSW to feature prominently on Saturday prime time 
Fixture out next week, negotiations continue with fox and potential FTA broadcaster

I don’t like the derby at marvel or first round but I’ll still go 

Just a tip

if you have Twitter, find the article and the link usually opens

Not to mention the start of the season falls on international dates, so we'll be without a few players. 

How good was it having to fight for an eternity for international breaks, only to have them nuked after one season?

I’d question whether “fight” is the right word? 

Comments on internet boards like this and Twitter do not constitute a fight - fans have literally no voice in football and, with the exception of the fan boycotts, have rarely been able to fight for anything. 

It remains the one one glaring omission from the recent reforms - the voice of the fans. 

it seems like all the clubs have been complaining about the fixture, so the FFA reverts back to the same template they have been using for years. 

On International breaks
This season games where 3 or more players are selected from one club if they fall in an international break or tournement are meant to be resheduled.

yes Chilly you make a good point.
In that case same scenario at Leichardt as well.
Therefore the Derbies should only be played at the SCG for us and at their new stad obviously..

Foxtel couldn't find the right kind of pointless filler during the breaks last season so they've just gone back to fucking over clubs that have players in the Socceroos.   

Cool, so round 1 MV v MC derby, round 2 MU v MV derby, and round 3 will probably be the big blue

No better way to start the season than with 3 cagey games

It sucks. Basically, the FFA are blowing their load in 3 rounds... make it last.

Now that Nabbout and Kruse are at Victory won't pick them remember?

Business as usual then

Hopefully not. 

the more things change, the more they stay the same...

Oh then MV  away to adelaide...

Apparently draw will be released next week.
Check A-league transfer hub.

Hearing that the A-League draw could be released on Monday sounds very likely that it will be sometime next week if it’s not on Monday

A league transfer hub Twitter is saying fixture will come out Thursday 

It must be fun for fans who want to travel for games that they have no idea where & when they will be on.  

hopefully the release little teasers in the coming days
