Sorry boys am off in Sydney this weekend so will miss the meet and greet. If theres one during the ACL i'll be in.

Otherwise I can put my face on the front of the Advertiser like the guy yesterday confirming that Max Cottaletta does exist......just not by that name of course.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.

Join me in a door knock raising Money for the P.A.J.P.S cause/charity.

The charity was established in March of this year by myself. As yet I am the only member but I am sure there are like minded individuals out there.

What the charity is aimed to do is to bring resources to the under priveledged and offer some hope where there appears none. Just by looking around your room at home you'll see that you are spending money helping large corporations such as Sony, Samsung, Toyota, Ford, Carlsberg, Coopers, C.U.B, Heineken etc etc and now its time for those companies to give something back.

If you can spare some time please let me know as this charity aims to help people out and help them not to be embarrassed in places like Asia.

*People Against Jims Plumbing Sponsorship

Count me in MC. I was going to update my shirt and buy Marcus a replica shirt this year until Jims were plastered all over the front of it. There was no way I was going to wear that thing in public. I wonder if when the new owners come in the sponsor will be changed? Surely Coopers have some spare change they can splash across the front of our beloved Red shirts??

We know what you look like Max - isnt that you over to the left in your Avatar?;)

General, all going to plan I will try and catch up for the 442 beer. I've got two kids parties on that day so not sure how much time I will get there before the game.

Haha Unit, the only reason I have Deco on there is because I get crap about being like Deco all the time.....problem is not for the football skills, and these days I think I've eaten a couple more cheeseburgers than him too.

looking at that line up I'm beginning to think we have a pretty good chance.

For me the only question mark is Owusu. Will he or wont he? On one hand he has had a season to forget - on the other hand he knows he is in the spotlight of clubs with big cheque books so may play his bestr games yet.

Speaking of big cheque books - I think it's safe to say that by the end of this ACL ride, Leckie will have some pretty big offers on the table from big Asian clubs. As will Mullen and Eugene.

Happy 100 Pages on the AU Supporters Thread!

Happy 100 pages as well REB!

OK I reckon we can call it the centre bar next to the stairs. How are we gonna know each other is the question? I do not wear AUFC gear but always am in red (not really one to purchase gear - though if we retain Leckie am thinking about one for next season...). You can find me on Facebook easily enough since I am one of the admins of the official AUFC fan page so you can see my profile picture on it - my Facebook page for ease of reference. If need be I am willing to have a "442 beer & greet" sign on the day!

Ahahahaaaa...id LOVE to see someone wearing that sign!!!!!

We can all wear a pink carnation in our blazer's breast pocket like in the movies.

Could always just post a lil' pic of ourselves on this forum. I only ever go on this site at work so facebook is out of the question.

If a coupla people do it then we will at least be able to use them as a signpost. I aint going first though [-(

If we did that though we'd already be able to put a face to the comments and thats pretty much the only reason I wanna come say hello. Am a curious person by nature....

As you can't upload to this site I am a bit stumped for you Davide...

Should be easy to spot all the internet nerds with pasty white skin and red-rimmed eyes. :)

Why not get a big, black texta and write 442 on your foreheads!? Or make badges with my picture on them? Maybe a secret handshake? Or you could all stand on one leg until the others hop up to you (I have some experience of this).

Hope this is helping. :d

Seriously, the General will be there with his "5-5-0 is in" sign, backed with "442 beers here". Should be easy.

Hmmmm....interesting point you raise... :-k

yeah i just assumed coz i always see people posting pictures on various threads
oh well

If you have a photo of yourself already on the net somewhere you can post in in any thread using the 'image' button. But not if it's just on your computer.

I look like a fatter uglier and far less fit and talented Juan Pablo Sorin :lol:

Basically just the hair...
And perhaps some(slightly) less wayward eyebrows :-$

I can tell you how to find Red Eye Rob. Look for the guy so visibly frustrated that he's dropping the F Bomb and slapping his thigh.

You will find me by the chevapachi stand as that has become the highlight...Although I wont be there.

Having said that for $50 I'll turn up in a suit and red tie and convince some young kids im part of the youth league team. I'll just sit next to Alemao while he's signing autographs.

I knew I wasn't the only one...

I reckon that will be the easiest thing to do, but if you are on Facebook PM me your ID and I will add you that way and should be able to locate you. BTW updating my Facebook profile with a slightly easier picture to recognise me from - forgot the current one has me at the Sea and Vines with food in one hand and a baby in the other!

OK Facebook is not letting me upload a new photo so you all will just have to deal with the profile pick ;)

General, I've sent you a message on FB.

Now that we have hints that Flores might play for us this week, and with Griffiths ready on the wings, I'm gonna start posting my desired line-up too.



This is with the ACL in mind.

lol nice one boys.

If i come to the game i'm definitely in for a catchup. As it stands, i've caught a cough and cold the last 2 days. This shitty, humid (and Queensland may i add) weather has killed me with the aircon's on 24/7 at work and home.

Max, I've tried to do the whole chevapachi/burger/hotdog thing at Hindmarsh, but i soon realise i need to spend around $218, trade in my watch, and sign away my mortgage to be able to afford to eat there! Prices are a joke!

Shit, just read the squads and Shin and Monterosso have been dropped this week. Hopefully they get some game time in the youth squad and score more goals. :D I honestly have no idea why the senior squad is going out there with only one striker in the squad on Saturday night.

I've edited my above line-up taking into consideration the current availability of players:

---

Adelaide United squad: 1.Eugene GALEKOVIC (gk), 2.Robert CORNTHWAITE, 3.ALEMAO, 4.Iain FYFE, 5.Daniel MULLEN, 6.CASSIO, 7. Lucas PANTELIS, 8.

You have got to be fucking kidding me right? They have dropped 2 strikers for 1. The two striker they have dropped have scored almost as many goals between them as the entire AUFC first team has all year for a striker who has scored once all season. That is definately it Monty is gone as soon as he can, AUFC have hung a huge "come and get him cause we are fucking blind" sign around his neck.

Dear Adelaide United,

Please win.

Thank you,

RedsUnited xoxo

Agreed. And this stupid team want to take Monte to the ACL!?!? What for? I understand the Baby Reds could probably do with his firepower but the kid will go from NYL straight to ACL with no experience in the HAL? Talking about dropping the poor kid in the deep end!

Was so angry had to have a wee rant on the AUFC Facebook page as well, wish there was a more direct method of yelling at them...

Not according to Val - you can only play for two clubs withing a season and Griffiths has already done that ](*,)

There's a thread on here about it - http://au.fourfourtwo.com/forums/Default.aspx?g=posts&t=26721

Here's a link to the sAdvertiser article - http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/sport/hitch-for-griffiths/story-e6frecj3-1225827009302

Pathetic if true - at least it's a change from hiring players who can't play because they aren't fit and/or are rubbish when they are ](*,)

I'll be there saturday, with the kids, in our usual seats.

Richard

OK will have a sign tomorrow :) Or else will be where I have said until at the most 10-15 minutes before kick off - at which point I will be drinking a beer in my seat!

i heard as well that Griffiths may not be able to play in the Champions League as well..

I want Viddie out...ASAP

what is the point of dropping Monterosso...we have nothing else to gain this season....may as well play the Youth League's top scorer....or is Vidmar trying to win us the wooden spoon for sure....
