Yea it’s easily walkable, that’s usually how I get there. Maybe 5 minutes walk down hill.
You mean as a south manager?
Yeah in terms of club achievements for south Melbourne
Its Ange, and his era coaching South was arguably the clubs strongest in general, success, crowds etc.
@Cunningstunt Ange nudges him for me also and his era was uniquely special, but Puskas a close second off aura alone and managing that famous NSL Championship in 1990-91, two Dockerty Cups and an NSL Cup.
I'd have Puskas a close 2nd as well, his stint is where my love of the club as a child started, middle park will always be my favourite ground as well.
I think the NSL went down a few notches in the late 90’s. All the great talent was leaving en masse
A number of high profiled socceroos came through that era as well, Bresciano, Grella, Colosimo (fuck andy cole), Sterjovski. It wasnt as good as the early 90s but it was ok, and the crowds were bigger.
If Im in any conditon to have coffee and cake I might give it a go... thanks for the tip. More importantly where is the closest pub
There’s a few across the road from the nearest station. Ironically the station is called “Carlton”If Im in any conditon to have coffee and cake I might give it a go... thanks for the tip. More importantly where is the closest pub
I must be slightly older than you... Middle Park is the correct answer on any question regarding love and loyalty... watching snippets of how run down and pokey it really was in the Puskas documentary filled me with such a nostalgic sadness... its was Wembley to us as kids...
Your a champion..... despite the fact that this Championship isnt what we all dreamed off 2-3 years ago, it will have to do for now and Im pleased that so many of us are getting excited about the whole thing..... October can't come soon enough.
Gotta keep pushing, keep the pressure up from both sides of the border. These are the sorts of matches we all want more of, gotta support them. The numbers are all the powers that be care about
100% Gotta keep making as much noise as possible until the dull roar can no longer be ignored and full pyramid from top to bottom is the inevitable conclusion.. The "usual suspects" effnikz clubs are starting to chatter which is great, if not expected, but I would really love to see the less storied clubs (no disrespect intended at all) start making a bit of noise leading up to October....
