Mariners V Adelaide United Rd 24

[VicMariner]

It's that kind of shit that ensured we were never a hope of keeping him.

Nicely done, everyone.

We can all call it like we see it.
If Izzo can't stand the comments of the fans maybe he should be a bricklayer or bus driver.

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

FFA, in all their wisdom, decided to interview and promote last weeks' AU game on the website.
Seriously, could they be any more clueless?
We have a game where the match was decided from an act of violent conduct and a grievous referee error from a rather unsporting act. One team's coaching staff is facing possible criminal charges for allegedly attacking the other team's coaching staff, another facing discipline for post-match referee abuse, and the referee was also conned by a disgusting dive, and they not only promote this game as a great sign of Adelaide's 'grit and determination', but interview the cheating scumbag who took the dive to do it?

It's hard to imagine anything more clueless from this mob.

Didn't he play for the Jest last season? I could've sworn he was on the field when Izzo got knocked out. Didn't Roy play in that game?

...So many questions and so few answers

Ok but what's your opinion
Should he play or not?

If he's in the best form on the training track he'll be picked, I expect. He's on our payroll, he'll be expected to do a job. And if he's picked, people who want to put up #IzzoOut banners or boo him should go to the movies instead.

Would you be happy if he gets picked?
I'll definitely boo if he is picked, I won't go overboard and i certainly will have more fun doing that than the movies.
The team will regret it if they pick him and he makes a mistake. I don't think he'd do it deliberately but he will cop a lot of criticism as will the club if happens.

 

[dibo]

I'm happy to let the coaches and players do their jobs, and I think you should go to the movies.

Get of the fence, you criticise others for putting out our opinions, thats fine its a forum but give us your thoughts. None of this political bull. Have an opinion. Just say yeah im happy for him to play i think he'll play to impress or he's better than Ivan even with doubts on his commitment or do you agree he shouldn't play but not with the booing or you don't care if he plays or not you just don't want our players criticised?

 

[dibo]

I gave my opinion. Re-read my post.

 

[Pirate Pete]

I won't be happy if he's picked. I won't be abusing him, but I won't be happy.
I thought Ivan did enough in the Sydney game to warrant another chance.
I would say if Ivan doesn't play that would signal he's not in Okon's plans for next season. Just my opinion

Ok miss read that as not having one.

What movie do you recommend Beauty and the Beast or Batman lego movie

On podcast he seemed keen to play on and sort of felt he'd like it to be here.

We're getting a bit off-topic now.

Well - that's one way of making sure that he won't perform at his best then isn't it? Wtf would you do that for? What exactly would you get out of that?
I mean, by all accounts he's gone any way so he won't be getting picked next season... And bearing in mind that noone's confirmed anything officially yet, on the tiny chance that he isn't actually leaving - that sort of thing certainly wouldn't help anything either.

Thing is though - going on the selection process when Ivan lost the #1 spot, Ivan should still be keeper based on how well he performed against Sydney, no?

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Has there been any official announcement yet as to his departure?

There seems to be a lynch mob here, rushing in before all the evidence is in.

Don't really think it's a "lynch mob" AM, perhaps just two or three. I gave my opinion earlier in the thread, stating that I would absolutely not join in any booing, and defending his right to make the move. My post received 8 x 'Agrees' and 2 x 'Likes' which is not only by far the biggest response to one of my posts, but indicates there are at least ten on this forum that will not be part of any lynch mob.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Ivan seemed very confident on the podcast - referring to himself as the number 1 keeper.
After his performance against Sydney, you would expect him to play and render "Izzogate" irrelevant.

Roys disinterest worries me more

 

[Wombat]

A source told me today that it is unlikely that Roy will be here next season...due to money. He also told me Roy would have had 20 Goals with a proper #10.
He also said we would have made the 6 with an experienced Centre Back.
He also said Paul Okon is a quality coach and reiterated that Paul is many levels above Mossy and Tony who "were out of their depth".
