Well I know I have met a few forumers here so it will be good to catch up at these member events. Just hope they are not on when Im overseas.

:lol: . Thanks for the post.

Definitely!


I don't know the in's and out's but going purely on dollar amount for stadium hire per game, i am 99% certain we have the best deal in the A-League. We pay a pittance compared to the rest of the country so i was surprised to see the consortium say we pay a "significant" fee.

Promote God Fellowship hey? Are they planning a members function in Rundle Mall on Friday night. One of the worst business emails I have ever read.

](*,)

Does anyone roughly know when the new away strips will be arriving?

Best bet is call the club and ask them mate.

With regard to the cost of hiring, the fee will always be significant - I think this is because we lose so much of each ticket sales to the cost of hiring etc.

I wish all the seats at Hindmarsh were red

I actually wish they were yellow and had AUFC spelt out in red seats in each stand.

either way would be good, This will never happen unless they owned Hindmarsh right? there seems to be little spots of red and yellow ones around.

I would prefer no seats at one end just a terrace like it use to be

Home end able to be changed from all seating to a terrace depending on it being an international or league game would be a massive win.

Imagine the atmosphere with a terrace at the home end with a roof, no roof on the away end so you cant hear Melbourne

I like.

not buying for my seat for the western stand but will try and get in the home supporters bay once on sale after the Melbourne heart game.

Despite the result had fun standing and chanting the whole game although some chants did get overdone.

Want to be there for the GCU, boy do we need noise for this game.

Im sure Gold coasts 3 away fans wont be making much noise, Sydney usually bring more away fans than they did last Saturday, I wonder what there excuse was?

This may anger a few people but women should be banned from singing at football, there seems to be too many women singing in the home end.

I disagree with you, most of the voices you think are womens are actually those whose voices haven't broken yet ;)

:lol: +1

Also, a very strange comment to begin with.
But being a fellow Reds supporter I will let it slide

o:) :lol:

Just bought my Gold Coast game ticket. PAX of 70. LOL

I remember reading when this move of Gold Coast's home game to the Marsh that GC received a % of the gate.

I suppose this may well be the most profitable game this year for them.

Did you guys know about this? Just saw a link on twitter

Vote for Club Player Of The Year Here

Dunno what the player gets at the end

Probably nothing, looks a bit retarded. Players can get votes without playing. Melling and Izzo are doing better than Mullen and Dilevski.

:lol:

I didn't even look that closely

I just pressed the 3 players I thought

Tried to find a link to it on the United website and couldnt see shit all

stopped caring very quickly aha

I'm sure those votes wouldn't count in the end. But knowing how the FFA have fucked up the websites royally since the changeover, I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't fix it up.

For the record I voted

3-Eugene hard to argue
2-McKain tried hard and was flat on his feet by the end
1-VanDijk just coz i feel sorry for how hard he has to work for no reward. Wins almost every header he ever has to when Eugene pumps the ball long but there's never any support.

On that, why has Eugene started booting EVERY.SINGLE.GOALKICK. straight up the field again this year like we did when we came bottom under Vidmar?

Is this an instruction?

If its not has he been told to stop/

Is it coz fullbacks like Malik or whoever is there are hiding and not demanding the short ball

Anyhoo, its 5pm and Im outta here

me:
3- Eugene (could have been very ugly)
2- Vidosic (worked hard, we were in the game while he was on)
1- van Dijk (what Davide said)

I voted

3 Ramsay
2 Cassio
1 Caravella

3 - Hugene
2 - Ramsay
1 - McKain

That members email looked half assed at best but I guess it's best than nothing, keep us in the look somewhat rather than wondering where our $60 went.

](*,) just because the shaker fries are back does not mean we need everything back from the 60s

the more noise the better i wouldn't care if we had a donkey going off as long as it was at our end with a red shirt on. You defiantly prob have more reason why you don't women in the area like because it is what it use to be like and still want it like that.


maby you just cant talk around women ? lol

i thought caravella was shocking.

i agree ramsay
but then i would of chosen galekovic and then mckain played well

Galekovic let two goals in. Granted the Coyne one was probably unreachable, but the Carle one it looked like he hesitated about what to do. Oh and long bombs up to van Dijk didn't help my impression of him either.

McKain did a good job, but his distribution into the midfield was suspect.

Caravella wasn't as good as he was the week before, but neither was the entire team. Caravella provided an attacking impetus along the ground that didn't involve long balls, and he actually took players on. When he lost the ball, he'd also actually chase them down to try and retrieve it. Could have done better, yes, but that is why I only gave him 1 point.

Hell, why am I even trying to justify my votes? ](*,)

Okay, bad form to quote oneself, but I went in today and picked up my Home kit...verdict....I like it..probably my second favourite kit, the first being the original Sekem United Mk1 home kit. Despite being lower quality, that one has so many awesome memories of falling in love with United, this one is clearly a quality shirt. I like the 'shiny' background on the club badge. the shirt just feels good. and sizing....I take a medium Nike Socceroos kit and this one feels about right as an Errea Large. Will be ringing Top Corner to get a quote tomorrow on name and number on the back.....will follow up here with their reply.
Update on Away kits:
expected within 2-3 weeks, will be posted out to those who pre-ordered.

I Didn't get the chance to ask about other merch, t-shirts, hoodies, tracksuits etc, had to bail pretty quickly once I grabbed my shirt.
