The new professional A league team will be in the comp here in Oz next season. Since Wollongong Wolves were thrown out years ago, I haven't followed it too much, but got into it last year a bit, following Welington Phoenix, for no apparent reason. BUT .......seeing as Phoenix wear Hull colours, and Melbourne Heart are red and white stripes ( saw it last night), I am urging Stokies to follow your hearts (get it?) and get behind the new team, who will be up against it against their bigger cousins, the Melbourne Victory. Go the Heart !!!!!!!!!  |

Although I agree that the move by the new club Heart to go with Stoke City stripes is one
to be applauded, kidsgrove4, you shouldn't swap your Phoenix allegation so easily.
Unbeknown to most, there is a Stoke City - Phoenix connection, a bit like the time and space one.
On numerous occasions throughout the last 3 seasons both teams have found themselves in remarkably similar situations and both teams suffer from media bias. Though I suppose no one is trying to boot Stoke out of the league.
Plus the Phoenix stripes are Yellow and Black and nothing like Hull's Amber and Black stripes
I must say though that I'm looking forward to going to the new Rectangle stadium for next year's away games in Melbourne.

Heart have also signed John Aloisi! a player that always seemed to score against stoke when he played, and was always a player i wanted us to sign.
dont know why, but he was just one of those players ive always liked!
GOOOOARN HEART!

Phoenix all the way (maybe)! Chrissy Greenacre, Paul Ifill, Leo Bertos & Mark Paston- dream team. Shame they are losing Eugene Dadi!! Red & White does look good though  Heart have also signed Mark Bolton who is a very tidy keeper. I'm swayed- goarrrrn Heart!! ;D  |

As Knowles points out - Chris Greenacre is with Phoenix at present - moved there season before last I think. This amused the Tranmere fan I know when I informed him. |
