Thank God.....New balls

Finally the federation and McDonalds have done something right by bringing out some decent balls, from what I've seen they look half decent. They a white which is a good start, and they seem as if they will do the job for the rest of the year.

I haven't seen the new balls yet so I'm not going to comment. I hope these balls aren't the same make as the red ones but in white because that would've solved nothing.

we used one wed night in the cup match and they float a bit, the cheaper version of balls seem to be a bit softer...kind of hard to explain..

No better in my opinion...just look more like soccer balls than the other overgrown pimples.

Don't be fooled people, they are still like a Big Mac with a different name, still no good for you

But never the less, at least they have done something about it and replaced them with a common sense white ball!
Well done all involved in changing them

And mattieg, what are you on about lad :?

From a distance the new balls look alright, but when you go for a closer look and a kick you realise there just as bad as before.

those balls are sexxy as love them

go home red maccas balls

pulse · Post by **pulse** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 8:20 pm

They are not that big of an improvement to the old red balls. They are alot easier to control with the extra spungy cushioning. They are alot easy going on the head if you header the ball. When the red balls used to be pumped up to the maximum it was like a rock, couldn't kick it or header it without feeling an effect from it. These new adidas balls are better than before but I still say stick to the ERREA balls. They are good to kick with and when you hit the sweet spot it really goes.

Oh well I guess you got to stick with what you got and the new adidas balls will do just fine to close out the remainder of the season, HOPEFULLY!

For some maybe and for some maybe NOT..!

But what I was saying they will do for the rest of the season. The Federation must come up with something good for the next season. Looks like its back to the drawing board at the end of the season again!

my sons team used them on the weekend, i held one of the balls, what are you guys complaining about, its an Adidas Champions League Match replica ball? You guys will never be happy will you, why not give $50 extra to your club to go out and buy an expensive ball. stop worrying about the ball and just play the game

i guess the ball does play a biiiiiiit of a role in the game buddy
