The CW Cup: battle of the association football teams

[Steulen]

That cartoon team knocked out PSV ffs.

Yeah well, better to lose to the champion and all that.

 

[Uppercut]

Barca and Tranmere.

 

[ripper868]

Wellington
Partick

 

[luffy]

luffy you are a ****ing ****

All's fair in Love and War.

Barcelona and Tranmere.

 

[biased indian]

need two more votes for barca......sure burmby wont vote for them

 

[BoyBrumby]

& the winner is...

That's yer lot!

Tranmere Rovers secure the bronze for blighty & Corrin with a 13-7 win over Partick Thistle. Would've voted for them too.

In the big one we actually have a tie game! I hadn't noticed grecian had gone back to edit his post to give Barca another vote by registering his preference in the 3rd place play-off, which levels it up at 10-10. I have to vote honestly & if Barcelona were drawn against Wellington in an Intercontinental Cup somewhere down the line I'd instinctively root for the latter. So there it is, Wellington Phoenix have done it.

Thanks to all who voted.

I don't hate Wellington but I get the feeling that this will be the only thing that they will win for a while.

Nicely run battle though Brumby.

 

[Simon]

Cant help but thinking they won the vote as the least hated team, if people were voting along the lines of teams they enjoyed watching or we were voting on the best performing club I'm sure we would have had completely different teams in the last 4 or 8.
Fair play anyway, well run battle Dale.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Hahaha. Brilliant.

I wonder if we'll look back on this thread in five years with the realisation that the Phoenix have gone the same way as the Football Kingz and New Zealand Knights.

Brumby dragged the Phoenix through in 3 contests as I recall. This is surely Brumby's victory as much as the Phoenix's.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Akin to Los Angeles Galaxy winning.

 

[chaminda_00]

Good to see a quality football team win it, not a team of divers.

They won't be in the Australian league for much longer, at least according to the Asian FA President.

 

[chaminda_00]

I think there is a push for a South East Asian side the replace them from Asia, due to that region losing ACL spots.

 

[GIMH]

This is how your favourite Tranmere fan reacted to the win over Partick to secure the bronze:

 

[PhoenixFire]

Wiping your nose on the badge. Not very respectful IMO.

 

[GIMH]

You're an idiot

 

[Somerset]

Hahaha. Brilliant.

Big thanks to Brumby in that case! Huge shock to see the Phoenix win the entire battle, personally didn't think they'd make it past the first round...
