Good luck getting tickets... Semi final was sold out super quick.

Is the game still being played at Hindmarsh? Or are they moving to a bigger stadium in Adelaide?

FFA Media Release:

Adelaide United will next meet Japanese team Gamba Osaka in the Final, also to be played on a home and away basis, with the first leg to be played in Osaka on 5 November and the return match at Hindmarsh Stadium on 12 November.

 

[Mariner Girl]

The final is at Hindmarsh and the members tickets are on sale today through the weekend. General admission tickets go on sale next Tuesday.

We won't get tickets me feels, this will sell out very very quickly. Bandwagoners aplenty in Adelalaide at the moment.

Reckon we should see if we can get the Kendal Bar for the night and watch on the screen and cheer on our "brethren"

I was taking the piss about going guys, f**k sitting in a bus for 24 hours each way

 

[dbryant]

Yes, I wish you luck trying to get tickets. I'm struggling at the moment as well

Hi Gull!

Hindmarsh, ay??  Interesting........ nice to see the second leg is at home though.  ;D

Is it funny that it feels normal cheering them on, and hoping to hell that they win the final?

Road trip to Adelaide to watch the final, anyone?

Pft, you were asleep. 

 

[~Floss~]

I think a lot of us have fond memories of cheering on Adelaide after cheering them to our Premiership win last season

It says a lot that Adelaide United's ACL success thus far has been highly popular not just in Adelaide, but with football fans all over the country. I've spent a lot of time talking with their fans, post regularly on their forum, they're a great lot to get on with.

Im super excited about tonights game! Go the Reds!

 

[Bear]

Great forum name. Are you Jamie McMaster?

I'm grateful to Adelaide for giving me more football to watch on Wednesdays
Plus this will fire up the A-League / J-League rivalry more, I'm loving it! Cornthwaite to smash Endo hahahaha!

I just can't WAIT for our turn in ACL.

 

[Jaza_SFC]

God I hope Gamba smash them a million times over.

I think the ACL will be the best thing to happen to our region EVER - both inside and outside the sports realm. We've just got to keep a tight team and give a good showing.

Haha, no I'm not Jamie...!

I am actually Belinda Neil.

Yeah, but you're an idiot.  If you're so utterly short sighted that you can't see how amazing this would be for Australian football, or because you're so selfish that you want Sydney to "win it first" or some ridiculously laughable thing like that, then I feel sorry for you.  You had your chance - guess that famous Sy-der-knee team spirit went wanting??  Or was it Zdrillic's miss of the millenium??  Or Faulty Bolty being himself??

Enjoy your heroic captain's _beyond_ disgraceful performance this morning??    F*cking scouse twat.

C'MON YOU REDS, DO _AUSTRALIA_ PROUD!!!!!

 

[David Votoupal]

Agreed. I'm giving my wholehearted support to Adelaide United tonight, they are doing Australian football a big favour.

In most places, we would never imagine giving any kind of support to rival clubs, I never would. But here it's different because of the circumstances football has had to face in this country.

Gamba, though, will be a tough proposition because of their aggressive attacking approach. They have two BTG midfielders in Endo and Futagawa, and a strong centre-forward and centre-back who can cause problems in the box, but their defence is easily breachable.
