Choppers Round 3 - Match Thread

[blakus]

We didnt concede any goals. 2nd time in 3 games. Thats a good effort.

 

[bjw]

People are kidding themselves if they think that wasnt a boring, mistake riddled game of football by both teams. I've seen better football played in park lands. It had me seriously questioning why I'd bother to part again with good money to watch that type of rubish.

Hahahaha, what?  You wouldn't pay to watch the team you support regardless?

Only in it for the good-times aye??
kutgw mate.

The worst game i have ever seen in my life was the FA Cup Final a couple of years ago between Man U and Chelsea; you can't expect every week to have the best football; if you are a true supporter you take the dross with the good because it is the game that gets the bubbles rising in your blood not one particular performance; My neighbour, who I persuaded to come to the ACL games (no worse trio of games has ever been perpetrated at the BlueTongue) has now become a Mariners member and has really enjoyed both home games, he loves the atmosphere, the sense of enjoyment and the excitement on the park; he couldn't give a toss about the so called quality, he just loves football.

Sorry the tifo display failed. It's supposed to have some sort of image or solid block of colour. The little coloured panels are supposed to be closer together, not held up individually. FAIL.

Same ... although I do tend to spout off a bit if I've had a bad day .. which is often, lol

No one is forcing you to pay the $$ and go to the match.

If it shits you that much, pay for a ticket and give it away to someone who wants to go but can't afford it (you'll feel better that way), or don't even buy a ticket at all, sport.

If you really support a team though, you'll ride the bad games through and really rejoice when the team clicks into gear and all goes well in a match.

Why the    ?

 

[fedelta]

Because they actually had tifo, unlike us.
It was far from a fail tbh.

Uh, OK. You obviously are a tifo fan.

But if you are going to do things like that, at least do it properly?

Yes, if the quality of the football played by teams in the A-League continued to be as bad as the utter crap served up yesterday by CCM and Sydney I would stop going.

TBF to the cove;
- They had limited numbers
- They had no access to the stadium before hand (y'know a few days before the game, that they would have for a home game if they were to set up such a tifo displau)
- They outdid us, at Bluetounge, again.

Tell you what, take a proposal to the Marinators and offer to pay for all the associated cost (or do a whip around of like minded souls for tifo) and I'm sure you'll get support for it.

But judging from what I've seen on this forum, the day you nominate as the day for coughing up the money and actually doing some work on the displays, will be the day that suddenly 6 or so of those who said they'd help you, suddenly find they have more pressing things to do.

TBF to the Cove, they have always had the size of their group as an advantage over most other supporters groups, both here and internationally.
I've only seen Urawa Red Diamonds supporters put them to shame at the SFS. No one else has either bothered or been successful.

I don't feel like thats a fair comment at all. In the time I have dedicated to making banners, I have had numerous people from the bay offer to lend a hand whether its funds,input, buying lunch, travelling long distances to paint a banner on a day off just to help out, or even carrying the fkers to games!
There are so many people on this forum and around at games that would offer their services to set up a tifo or spend a day painting because it is actually a fun exercise, but what you need is the ability to DO IT YOURSELF! whether thats making your own banner, coming on here and being PROACTIVE asking for peoples help or setting up a banner making day at your house (watch the pm's fly in) or ACTUALLY hitting up the marinators exec for help with tifo ideas etc, instead of just chucking up a banner idea on here or make the assumption that noone is willing to help when in fact one has never even tried or attempted to make their way around creating a tifo.

When I get back from my holiday I will be asking people to help me make something that the marinators will be proud of.
Can I add you to that list of people Clarence?
