ALM - CCM v Western United

[Avoca]

Surprisingly, a very agile celebratory flip by Theoharous. Impressive skills by the Greek God.

He is looking a lot fitter - great work by the fitness coaches and kudos to him for putting in the work. I'm sure he enjoyed the goal against Aloisi.

Also almost like playing in a library based on the noise coming through the effects mikes. Finally getting a home doesn't seem to have done anything to improve their supporter base

The 30 or so Mariners fans made some good noise at least, good on them

 

[Big Al]

Mrs hasn’t watched last couple of games so hasn’t seen Theo’s improvement

Fully bagged him like I would earlier in the season.

I stayed quiet knowing he is playing better and looking fitter.

When he scored i high five her and said that was because you bagged him. I knew he score as soon as she did. I then said have a look at him and she went wow he has lost some weight.

It shows and he is improving. Deserved goal for the hard work and no step overs

 

[Big Al]

Scratchy first half but we suffocated them in the second half and our quality wore them out and should have been 3 at least.

Back to the top. Pressure back on the nix while we go get more passport stamps

 

[JoyfulPenguin]

Wasn't the best performance but took our chances when needed.

First Half was a tad dire and things could have gone off the rails with Danzaki scoring or Balard giving away a penalty.

Did what we needed to do and move on to Bishkek.

Good to see Richard Peil at the ground and he came over and had a chat to the travelling fans at half time. Bryce also ran over to celebrate with Theo after he scored.

One disappointing thing was security telling our small active support contingent to sit down, or go stand in the standing section with the Western Service Crew. Which they clearly genuinely thought was a good idea.

Hopefully Western's contractors learn a bit more about football culture before Victory's active comes to town or they might cause some problems.

 

[Huddo]

Never doubted the boys would get it done.

Second half was a clinic on versatile defence.

2 to go.

 

[bikinigirl]

Apparently the boys leave for kyrghizistan at 5am

. I shouldn't have been ... but was shocked when Maxi mentioned that in the post-match

. very tough gig coming up against the Utters

 

[bikinigirl]

Looks like at 5:15am flight to Dubai. 1:05pm in Dubai (13hrs 50 min).

9 hour 40 min layover in Dubai

10:45pm overnight flight (3 hours 55 minutes) to Bishek arriving 4:40am Monday

Probably leaving early Thursday (5:50am local) arriving back in Sydney early Friday morning before a Sunday afternoon game at Gosford.

. the boys won't even have time to catch a kok-boru match ... imagine going all that way to Kyrgyz-land and no kok-boru

They won’t play City or Victory there. Just don’t have the capacity

 

[Huddo]

That win guarantees us the Club Championship.

 

[Tevor]

That win guarantees us the club championship.

Another bit of silverware I assume there is a trophy for the club.

Told us we could go to our assigned seats “Row 1” and were allowed to stand there.

Couldn’t quite grasp the idea we were standing down the front to avoid blocking people’s view 😂.

Centre trophy.

 

[shipwreck]

Forgive my ignorance, what the f**k is the club championship?

 

[pjennings]

Combine points from the home and away season from the ALM and ALW

 

[Archie]

Forgive my ignorance, what the f**k is the club championship?

basically a ladder which counts the results of both the mens and womens teams in the A-Leagues. CCM has already locked in the most point compared to other sides meaning that no matter what we'll finish first in the club championship.

 

[sydmariner]

the championship for clubs

Is that a bit like irn bru is in Scotland?

 

[Emeriners]

I could not see the game but good preparation for Bishkek 🤌🏻

And on an other subject, thoughts and prayers with people of Sydney 🙏🏻🙏🏻
