Roar v CCM - Grand Final

[MrCelery]

Flights booked

Jester from Newcastle. Sunday 6.20am flight. Returning with the toilet seat and a massive hangover on Monday 2.35pm. $188.

Fired up already!

I reckon we can finally do Brisbane.

Flights booked

+1 (well, 3 actually, eldest and youngest are on this time) but a more cushy hour from SYD where eldest lives and back on the 9am Mon morn - I'll still work in the arvo

STILL PLENTLY OF 'REASONABLE' FLIGHTS THERE PEEPS, GET ON IT (down to $49 if you'll take Tiger on) - if last week was a taster the atmosphere alone at Suncorp will be unbelievable.

I reckon we can finally do Brisbane.

I'd been saying before the 1st leg that if we had to play them three times in 4 weeks and only won the third one, that'll do me!

(It'll be tough) but some points in our favour...

• Great away form this year
• All our A-League wins against the Roar have been at Suncorp (that's 3, but last week it would have been 4 if a head-to-head game, without the 3rd goal to chase)
• 2 of last 3 GFs won by the team that didn't have the week off
• The boys looked gutted after drawing up there last week, they don't want that again. And there's a feeling Wilko, Hutch and Kwas (and Clarky and JC and Lawrie) won't want to revisit a third time either (and f**k it, neither do I)
• All the pressure here's on Brisbane - home Grand Final, full Suncorp, "best A-League team ever", 27 matches unbeaten. We have no burden of expectation - but Arnie and the boys are quality with a big 'Q'

Brisbane fans won't admit this but the subdued, "maybe the dream's slipping away here" feeling in the Suncorp crowd at HT last week was palpable. They're a great side, and demonstrated that in the 2nd half last game but not invincible and each win (or draw), even after 27, is one closer to the next loss. NEXT WEEK

We are driving up. Will have to miss Monday. Why the f is thr GF not on Saturday? does it take 2 days to fix the staduim?

Couple of questions ... how far is it from Suncorp to the airport in time too I guess and the latest flight I have seen returning from Brisbane on Sunday is 17:50 ... anyone have a latter time at a reasonable price ... or pre 7:00 take on Monday morning...

game is 4pm brisbane time so no chance

30mins from airport

the best i have seen is brisbane to sydney on virgin for $88 at 2000 - even still pushing it if it is in extra time or penalties

I'm flying up Sunday morning, back home Monday. Is everyone sitting in the crappy away bay they've allocated us?

 

[Ted]

Here it is, the game I told my mates is the only time I want us beat the Roar if we are going to beat them. With the ACL in the bag can we snag the GF win? I think the odds well in our favour....

 

[Ourimbahman]

Just booked our flights using frequent flyer points - flying up Sunday morning and back Monday afternoon. The question I would also like answering is in which bay is everyone planning to be ?

 

[Nik Mrdjas Disco Bikkie]

Just booked tickets in bay 312

 

[marinerbhoy]

Flying return with Virgin. Up Sat and back Mon.
Have the FFA shafted us into the corner or is there space behind the goal?

 

[garlo]

There is eight of us going up ...bay 312 aswell

 

[cbowden9000]

Just booked tickets in bay 312

Is that the regular away section? I'm pretty sure there are some Catagory A Away seats going on sale tomorrow.

 

[Ourimbahman]

Bay 312 is behind goal Southern Stand. Cat A tickets on sale Monday for members.

 

[midfielder]

Why the F is this game not on Saturday when travelling fans can get back to work for Monday......

Who is there to care about away fans!?

Culprits in order - Fox, Stadium, League, FFA

 

[Jocwa08]

[Atomic]

I want to buy my tickets but dont know where. Prefer to be sitting with as many Mariners supporters as possible. Who's going to be sitting in the away fans bay?

Yellow Army report that the best bays to buy are being sorted today - 'stay tuned'. Rumour that Mariners are lobbying for better away space.
