Terrible performance by the Reds... not one significant attack after Vidosic went off. Slory is hopeless- surely Coolen must be running out of patience with him.

The other teams in the league seem to look sharper than us. A big shake up is needed or the season is a write off.

Adelaide United FC’s list of impressive corporate partners has grown further with Australia's leading transport fuel supplier and convenience retailer Caltex signing on as the club’s ‘back of shorts’ sponsor for the next two seasons.

The commitment of a high profile and nationally recognised company such as Caltex is a major coup for the Reds and the club is delighted to align itself with a company of Caltex’s stature.

Caltex is the only integrated oil refining and marketing company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange, and its business value chain incorporates operational excellence throughout supply, refining, logistics and marketing.

With Caltex’s high standards and drive for innovation and success, its values fittingly align with what Adelaide United FC sets out to achieve on and off the field, suggesting that the partnership has potential to be an extremely prosperous one.

Caltex Brand Advertising and Marketing Communications Manager Mark Leathan revealed that one of the key reasons behind Caltex’s commitment to Adelaide United is because of a new development the company has set its sights on establishing in South Australia within the next two years.

“Caltex plans to open a new fuel terminal in South Australia in 2013 giving greater security of fuel supply to the state,” Mr Leathan said.

“This project is part of Caltex's overall commitment to develop infrastructure and capability to meet Australia's growing transport, agricultural and mining fuel needs.

As part of this move we are looking for partners with similar values to ours. Our company values suit Adelaide United as a team with a history of success serving and caring for South Australians.”

“We wish the team all the success in the coming season and look forward to our ongoing partnership.”

Caltex will be displayed on the back of the team’s playing shorts for the first time when the Reds take on Sydney FC at Hindmarsh on October 22.

Cassio needs to sit the citizenship test in a couple of weeks, think this deserves a call to the ranga about special circumstances...

This is probably an extra time thing, but it made me laugh:

Didn't half of them cop bans?

Ducky42, whatever happened to the Irregulars group?

Pretty much down to a difference in opinion when it comes to support. The Red Army are basically an organisation, they have a committee and do fundraisers to fund their tifos, etc. We don't really want anything to do with all that, we just want to rock up at games and support our team. All flags and banners come out of our own pocket.

If there's any justice, it should be about $10 with the amount they slug us for the shirt.

Anyone found out how much it will cost to get name & number put on the shirts yet?

Can anyone give me a rundown on the Red Terrace and the story behind their formation?

Davidde82, yes I received one of those emails too, but wonder of wonders, I had my ST a full 3 weeks before the season started..I was a surprised as its possible to be about the timing AND the fact that it worked 1st time on Friday night;)
