2021 FFA Cup

[Corsair]

I really enjoy the FFA Cup, but I also understand some fans don’t take the comp too seriously.

Question:

If you had a choice this season, would you rather:

1) See a competitive Mariner’s proudly finish in a top 2 A-League table position.

Or

2) See an average Mariner’s scrape into 6th position on the A-League table, but, also WIN the FFA Cup?

For me, the steely allure of FFA Cup silverware is too beautiful to resist.

Even if we do enough for City to win it we end up in the Asian cup, i think that's probably the real goal for a deep cup run, do enough that we end up in Asia.

Why can’t we have both? I’m not greedy at all…..

Because we’re ccm and we can’t have nice things.

Regardless of whatever lineup we decide to put out against them I am certain our boys will show infinitely more heart than the WSW B team brought tonight.

Exactly what I thought tonight during the game. Our boys will play that much smarter than WSW did. Romero and his other strike partner look better than other NPL front lines we've seen though and if given the chances that the Wolves had we could cop one or two. Especially if we don't play a full strength defence.

Gotta say Apia's second goal could go down as the blooper of the decade

Hopefully we can get the game in pre Xmas, before we have to start travelling interstate.
