Unfortunately, it couldn't have gone much worse with Glory suffering a crushing 6-1 defeat on the road against Macarthur.
David Zdrilic has an almighty challenge ahead of him to get his Glory side competitive, let alone challenge for the top six.

Zdrilic might opt for multiple changes after last week's embarrassing defeat.
Mustafa Amini, Nathaniel Blair and Nick Pennington are all questionable with injuries.
Wellington Phoenix Form
Phoenix put together an outstanding season last term, finishing in second spot on the ladder, but they would have been disappointed with their opening outing last week.
Playing at home against one of the teams tipped to struggle in Western United, Wellington were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw.
Kosta Barbarouses put Phoenix ahead on the stroke of half-time, but they couldn't hold on for the win, with Angus Thurgate levelling the scores in the 76th minute.
Wellington arrived in Perth on Tuesday and should be fresh and ready to continue their strong recent record in WA.
