Reddy sure is ready

It's impossible to believe that after seven A-League clubs Liam Reddy still hadn't had an honour next to his name before tonight. Well, it's been a long time coming for the journeyman 37-year-old who began his career all the way back at the birth of the milennia with Paramatta Power.

But good things sure do come to those who wait, and it's hard to pick an A-League stalwart who deserves it more after his sensational ability to come back each season just as strong as the last (and this year, so, so much stronger). 

WORST

Unfortunate timing

'Tis a little bit of a shame, without trying to rain on a very proud parade, that the 17,000+ that packed HBF Park against Melbourne Victory couldn't be there to see the Glory finally become glorious.

Sure they lost 2-0, very unfortunate timing for a squad that hasn't lost an away game all season, but their performances this season deserved a full house tonight. 

11,000, while surely encapsulating the rusted on supporters there from the very beginning in 1995, is a little short of the mark. Nonetheless, the 'You're sh**, ahhhh' chants rung just as loud as they ever have. At least there's that.
