@MattyWindley@gomvfc@smfc@AustraliaCup@MCG Yes, as a venue safer. But venue management do not want soccer people in there. Don't want to deal with potential issues like broken chairs, flares and all that sorta stuff.
@BoysInBlueTV@Victory19611@victory_tokyo@gomvfc Yea but then someone else finds that 'unacceptable and poor for fan engagement'.
Club can't win. They did a great job with the first two, better than paramount ALW games tbh and just couldn't deliver one that's 3 hours from home. I'll live with that.
@BoysInBlueTV@Victory19611@victory_tokyo@gomvfc Add to this that a local stream provider probably doesn't have an equivalent product and I think the club took a pass on it.
They've streamed all the NPL pre season games, this seems to be a bridge too far. I'll get over it and watch the cup game next week 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
@BoysInBlueTV@Victory19611@victory_tokyo@gomvfc I don't get the logistical thought process here. No other club has streamed pre-season friendlies other than victory and I don't see Josh Pariah voluntarily heading up to Shepparton to stream and commentate a second rate victory 3 hours from home.
@bootsa22@aleaguemen@aleaguewomen All those who have fucked it have left the building with a smoldering mess left behind them and landing with a golden parachute elsewhere.
Those who remain are left to pick up the rubble.
@Victory19611@gomvfc It makes it real tough when you thought you had an extra 100k in the bank for the next season to run that and that evaporates. Very easy to lop those things to save costs, its the unfortunate reality but no one can say that. 2/2
@Victory19611@gomvfc I've asked this question too and the hints I've got is that its a big cost, it's not the bottomless pit that City is that they do every week. The losses compounded by the fines last season means there had to be some inevitable cutbacks. Yes, you still have to engage but man, 1/2
@Morecapsicum @InTheMixer_FM@anthony_mg_ As much as we need more money for women in sport, the expectation for clubs to win still remains the same, no? It's not a charity to let people play any sport they want with no consequence. The club found a player more committed & signed her, good move. I don't get CDs bitterness
@Morecapsicum @InTheMixer_FM@anthony_mg_ Riddle me this. Expectation is for her to play all ALW games in her contract. Week before she's due back for ALW, she does a knee or has a concussion. The team is absolutely fucked without a no 1 GK all for of the season. Season done.
