Round 23 - Melbourne Victory @ Melbourne Rectangular Stadium

[Ozhammer]

Hearing that Golec has fractured his tibia, which is a real tragedy for him, as he is one of the few players who can genuinely hold his head up this season.

I would like to suggest that we need to organise a collection for him like we did for Monty previously.

Ok my anger has simmered down a little finally.
We could ALL see exactly how this game would unfold before it started (everyone except the coaching staff amazingly) and it had been described almost exactly by many on here prior to the match.
So I shouldn't have been so incensed by getting what I expected.

But there was the vaguest hope that it wouldn't be a 5-something drubbing after all.
What hit so hard was that that very hope is/should have been dead.

I've yet to see both of Pain's goals but I appreciate them at least.

All the best to Golec too, hope he is back better then ever next season. A harsh and undeserved end to his season that.

Now to quote myself: "everyone except the coaching staff amazingly" - seriously wtf!? What does it take to learn that fire burn hand, don't touch fire!
No. Learning. Is. Occurring.
Most of us are not A license level coaches. Yet we all know how to beat Okon's team, every single game. ffs.

What does Gatty know what we dont

The Russians are coming?

Well the big fat controller stood there until they were fixed.

Heh, seen the clip, finally know what you're talking about. Yeah, wtf was he on about?
It was a bit of a farce how long it took to fix it.

Though looking at the clip, it seemed like our players were standing around. Why didn't Okon call all the boys over to the bench and have a word? 14min into the 2nd half, we're 3-0 down - I'd say the coach desperately needs to be able to talk to them and this was a golden opportunity for that to happen.
If Okon DIDN'T do that then....fair dinkum.........maybe he should head down to Pluim, or Gavenlock, or James Browne one weekend with a notebook, learn a couple of things.

He was only going to say 'do Plan A better', and the players already knew that

Antony Golec injury update
The Central Coast Mariners can today confirm that defender, Antony Golec has sustained A FRACTURE TO HIS TIBIAL PLATEAU (SHINBONE) and will undergo surgery in Melbourne today.

Golec sustained the injury in the Mariners’ Hyundai A-League Round 23 fixture against Melbourne Victory in approximately the 33rd minute of play.

The 27-year-old centre-back was immediately transported from AAMI Park to hospital by paramedics, where he spent the night.

After undergoing surgery today, Golec will return to the Central Coast later this week to complete his rehab. Unfortunately, Golec will play no further part in the Hyundai A-League 2017/18 season.

Golec took the opportunity to thank those in the football family for sending him messages of support.

“I just want to say a big thank you to all of the Mariners fans and football fans across the A-League who have taken the time to send me messages of support,” Golec said.

“The amount of support I’ve received from fans, staff and players across the whole A-League has been overwhelming, so thank you to everyone who has contacted me, it means a lot,” Golec said.

Commentators said no offer on the table yet for Okon from the Mariners.
Could just be an assumption from fox of course

I dont know why?

 

[pjennings]

As soon as I heard Baro was out on top of Hiariej I knew we were going to struggle more than usual. Then when Golec got injured the rest of the game seemed pointless.

Negatives - plenty
Positives - Liam looked good for probably the first time this season and ...???

Or a kitten, he seems to like them.
Seriously, he's shown his passion for the team, he will be missed.

They're doing up the dunnies though, so...

I think someone at the Council misheard. They thought "The Mariners are Shithouse" ......was...."The Mariners need a new shithouse".

Someone should start a thread for Anthony.

I will chuck in $20 and a free 1 hour massage at either East Gosford or Wyong.
Lord Golec has been one of the few positives this season.
Atomic and Bikini Girl are good at this sort of thing.

I'll kick in too.

There is that.

Our shit football for shitters campaign really worked out.

Assuming he isn’t hard up for the cash himself.. I know that he volunteers at an rspca on the coast, maybe we could donate to them on his behalf since he won’t be there for a while. Or give him a voucher for pet barn or something for his own kitten.
