Despite 100mm of rain in 24 hours, the pitch at Parramatta Stadium passed its inspection at 11am today (Feb 7th) Unless something catastrophic happens between now and 5:00pm, there is no reason to think that the game will be called off. HOWEVER, the Youth League game has been relocated to Seymour Shaw and rescheduled for 3:30pm. There should be a press release soon from the club. |

Apparently SBS have gotten it into their heads that they 'Own' the phrase 'the world game' in relation to football. So apparently nobody else can use the phrase 'The World Game' as a reference to football or the suits at SBS will set the lawyers (Dewey, Cheatham and Howe apparently) on them. Both Crikey and Channel 10 have been targeted recently and both have responded with a resounding 'Fuck Off', metaphorically speaking anyway. The idea that a business, in this case a heavily government subsidised business, thinks that it can own a vernacular descriptive phrase is a joke. If someone were to use those words as a brand, or try to represent themselves as being related to SBS's highly respected 'World Game' brand, I could understand it, but this is just bullshit, overzealous lawyers making a buck and apparently incompetent management making fools of themselves. SBS seem determined to burn through as much goodwill as possible before the 2010 World Cup, a vast cash cow that generate enormous viewing audiences and income for them. SBS suits should remember that football is also known as 'The People's Game' and this misguided attempt to lay claim to what is a universal turn of phrase is not going to go down well at all. I've renamed one of the forum sections on this site 'The World Game', I await my letter with bated breath, I hope its two-ply, and properly absorbent. Jubdal |

| | For the first time since the A-League's inception, Sydney FC have won their first two games. And they thoroughly deserved to pick up the points against Adelaide United, who were under the cosh for much of the game, and finally conceded with thirteen minutes to go.
Vitezslav Lavicka made only one change to the side that had started against North Queensland, with Steve Corica returning to the starting line-up in place of Brendan Gan. For Adelaide, it was an unchanged team.
Byun Sung-Hwan and Travis Dodd had early half-chances at either end in a scrappy beginning. On 11 minutes, a good cross from Alex Brosque on the left was met by the head of John Aloisi, but Eugene Galekovic saved without too much difficulty.
