The Melbourne Victory gravy train will soon be over. Melbourne will have a new club. Its down to 2 bids people, Melbourne Hearts which is a Sidwell,MacManus,Greek Businessmen bid - Unofficial SMFC bid, and Southern Cross FC which is the official SMFC bid. Either way Victory are rooted, The South will rise again, and when you all start getting your pants pulled down at Telstra Dome you will have finally understood the might, the power and the glory that is the greatest soccer club in Australian history, South Melbourne.

Victory will play out of the new purpose built rectangular stadium Ramps and have over 20k+ members. Anyway MV have the first A-League game of the season tonight to worry about. We'll leave the wannabee chirps of a VPL club to another time  .

Is it true that Melbourne Victory fans disgraced themselves last night with a massive punch on in the grandstands.

Don't know as the game was in Sydney but from past experience there is never any crowd trouble at Victory games at the Dome except when they play Sydney FC  .

Good start to the season for the Victory Ramps. A win and a draw from two away games  .

beating the sheep shaggers is no big deal...common come to your senses, you idiots at the Victory have achieved nothing in these years of the A League, the A League has no credibility, no championship in this country can be taken seriously if South isnt in it. If Southern Cross comes in and you win a championship I will give you due credit, but lets be honest all of your supporters are pooting themselves at the prospect of Southern Cross coming in because theyve all smelt the stench of defeat that will encompass them when we start handing out traditional hidings to boys from the Victory- in fact there will come a time, when Victory will need to get sponsored by Unilever coz theyll be needing the vaseline lol.  HAHAHAHAHA

a big no for me.

Sth Melb can stick to Premier league where they belong.

If there is to a second team it should be somewhere like Geelong. Southern cross you have got to be joking it might as well be called Sth Melb Hallas.

A-league will revert back to the glory days of racial taunts and fighting within opposing fans.

The game is going great and Melbourne dont need another club

Victory have flogged Newcastle tonight 5-0
