But it sounds likely at this stage, he has been putting in some good shifts for MVFC which is very nice to see :)

Looking at the table, only ccm can knock us off 2nd spot (provided we win our next 3) and they face glory and brisbane away in the next two. These 3 games are must wins and se SHOULD win considering ladder positions and current form. Carn u reds

Can anyone tell me if we have definitely signed Jeggo?
Cockerall was going on tonight about it being a rumour. Sure it's Cock-en-all who knows pretty muck nothing unless it's Sydney based, but he sowed seeds of doubt.

Something AU are trying to nurture as they've said numerous times it's hard to get government grants when you're owned by a consortium of some of Adelaide's richest. A valid point mc, but I still hate the " right tie " brigade for paying off SACA's $80 million debt , I bet there are a few blokes with SACA membership that could of paid it off themselves, even a group within could have easily done it. But what pisses me off most is that my tax $ were used for something I don't give a shit about - medical equipment or research is way more important in my book.

Although I HATE the idea of watching & playing on an oval, if I was the club I'd be tempted to tell AEC and the state government to stick their stadium where the sun don't shine.
The club are the only tenants, Hindmarsh got the upgrade via SOCOG because of our code and we're being treated like shit.
Nothing has been done to help our code, but without it Hindmarsh wouldn't exist.
I played on it, and I have fond memories of it, but the handout to cricket and AFL sickens me, so I hope some rich Arab buys the club and either buys Hindmarsh for AU only, or buys land, builds a new stadium and lets AEC incur a huge debt.

This would only happen if a games bid got up tbh where as a small upgrade to Hindmarsh is likely to come from corporate pressure than crowd numbers forcing an increase. interested why you think this? Labours powerbrokers are historically rooted in the corridors of the SANFL backrooms and they have done their big spend on sports by investing in Adelaide oval. Steven Marshall is a football person, has been involved in Adelaide city and his kids are in the junior ranks there though he has been shunned somewhat for his public support of AUFC. Demetriou will be given a safe Labor seat now that he has left the AFL. His reward for the shell game he played for years where he gave money to the ALP who gave taxpayer funds and stadia to the AFL. The icing on the cake was when he sacrificed Essendon to give the government their "blackest day in sport" distraction. Edited by Crusader: 12/3/2014 10:06:15 PM

Quote:Fans to see red at new-look Coopers Stadium after $4m upgradehttp://www.adelaidenow.com.au/sport/football/fans-to-see-red-at-newlook-coopers-stadium-after-4m-upgrade/story-fnii0g1d-1226852039365 COOPERS Stadium will be transformed into a sea of red. Owner Adelaide Entertainments Corporation is upgrading all of the 15,500 seats, all in red, as part of a $4 million facelift for the home of SA soccer. Corporation chief executive Anthony Kirchner also says up to $800,000 per year has been saved by taxpayers since the company had become stadium bosses last year. MORE: TIME IS RIGHT FOR REDS TO LOSE RYAN GRIFFITHS The upgrade will be funded by AEC’s operating profits as tenders for the proposed red seating closed last Thursday. Kirchner says the stadium’s changerooms will also be upgraded. “Projects currently underway include new seating throughout the stadium, new food and beverage outlets in the Eastern Entry plaza,’’ Kirchner said. “And an additional lift (elevator) to service the top level of the western grandstand. “Other projects to be undertaken are a $400,000 upgrade to the player change room facilities and further upgrades to existing food and beverage outlets throughout the stadium. “Coopers Stadium is a significant public asset that belongs to the people of South Australia, not a privately owned football club. “We’ve been charged with the responsibility of improving the stadium’s financial performance and upgrading the stadium’s facilities. “We’re doing both of these things.” Adelaide United has been charged about $481,000 for 13 A-League games this season which is still the lowest rental among the eight other Australian-based clubs. “It’s the best venue hiring deal in the A-League, with comparable franchises paying an average of $66,500 (excluding GST) per event day,’’ Kirchner said. “An independent report commissioned by the State Government stated that Adelaide United paid approximately $32,500 per event day for the 2011/12 season. “So far in the 2013/14 season, Adelaide United has paid an average of $36,600 per event day, which represents an increase of 12.6 per cent.” Edited by imonfourfourtwo: 12/3/2014 05:17:10 PM

Absolutely perfect ball form him. Yep and the others did a good job to play out of trouble there, can see the Welly players sniffing a turn over and over committing a little. There was a lot of worry about Eugene's distribution but he's really grown into his role in this team as have many others =d>

Edited by iridium1010: 2/3/2014 07:58:48 PM Kossie got the kiss of death some years ago. Graham Cornes ( who is the local anti football loudmouth ) said Kossie was a " real, true blue bloke ". Cornes is an ex AFL player, so his knowledge of coaching football is zilch, and although he took up playing football in the Masters league, his knowledge of tactics and off the ball positioning is almost as pitiful. I respect Kosmina, but captaining Australia in the '70's and coaching in a league that is now playing at a much, much higher level, makes a lot of his awareness style wise almost Jurassic.

Edited by vanbasten88: 1/3/2014 08:04:15 AM This sort of crap annoys the fuck out of me too. Still I suppose we have to put up with this uneducated crap, I just wish they could accept the fact that in 154 years ARF hasn't been accepted by any other country because it just stupid, and just enjoy their piddling game without degrading the REAL football. And the worst thing is them saying if there were more goals our game would improve - like some Neardanthal who plays a game that no-one outside the southern states of Australia cares about can improve a game that's played worldwide and is worshipped by billions -pffft! Putting up with the saturation coverage they give their mob is akin to putting up with Jehova's witnesses knocking on your door. Edited by redcup: 1/3/2014 12:10:04 PM
