Roar? Or are they so lacklustre they you can only feel sorry for them rather than hate them?

The A-League Men finals are off to a flyer - but can anyone stop Auckland?

The FA need the money. They will publicly declare a $8.5 M loss this week.

A-League Tipping: Elimination Finals - Accidental Adelaide with chance to stun Western

It’s a 30k stadium so filled just over half of that. If WSW want to be the biggest football club then they gotta do better me thinks.

Could be an all Victorian grand final 😂 😂 😂

Not a full stadium at the WSW v Vucks game tonight.

And no live blog on this site. How football has fallen 😱 😱 😱

The articles mentions monies having to flow in both directions so some is debts not paid to FA (write off) but FA also appears to have debts???

FA CEO Johnson stands down, former Matilda named as interim replacement

Yes, because the FA will announce a $8.5M loss when it releases it’s financial position this week.

I don’t think Ange sees winning the Europa final as giving him the keys to the Spurs dressing room next season. He’s most likely been preparing for the exit already. But what he would be doing is maximising the teams chance of winning the trophy and going out on a high. Whatever happens, Fozzie is correct, Ange is an Australian coaching trailblazer and will be remembered and respected. Respect 👍

Slight exageration but I get where ya comin’ from man 😛

Valkanis to replace Zadkovich at Brisbane Roar, Socceroo takes the reins at Newcastle

Is the moaning and pearl clutching over among the Roar faithful? 😂 😂 😂

Bit ruff 😢

The A-League Men finals are here - and they're missing a huge name

Don’t know. What are your football spies telling you?

A-League Tipping: Round 29 - Adelaide, Sydney biting fingernails as three sides grapple for second

Absolute rout of Sydney at AAMI tonight.

Would struggle in the A-league 😛

'Pele-esque', 'world's best already': 17-year-old Barca star dazzles with wonder goal in epic CL semi draw with Inter

“It seems like Mata has been fairly pro about it all and probably an excellent person to be training around in any case.”

This is a key point. If the manager has a certain approach to the team, if the player is happy to fit in, then the player agent needs to button their lips and simply shut up.

Imagine Staj playing Mata when the player is less than fit and other players are being sidelined so that the ‘marquee’ gets a jog on the pitch on game day. Recipe for a disaster with the player agent simply stepping back saying “oh well, it’s not my fault that the the coach can’t coach”.

Alen Stajcic deserves plaudits after being proven right in ugly 'disrespect' clash with Juan Mata's man

Ange’s approach of full throttle and relentless attack is great when you have the best players. You need to score goals and defend your lead. Spurs is not that team, obviously.
Ange will be shown the door.

I get my A-league coverage via The Roar. The Age/SMH seem to focus on EPL and Socceroos/Matildas because that’s where he’ll get the hits. I did notice the weekend’s A-league in The Guardian via an article from the Australian Associated Press.

Auckland FC are premiers - but is that a good thing for the A-League?

Wow, how bad are Sydney FC?

Touching 😊

Call me confused Grem or Grem (338). Which is it? A Roar supporter/member but formerly a SFC supporter/member? Helppppppppppp 😛

We sat in the stand at AAMI last night, gnoring on our fingers for 95 mins watching chance after chance go begging 😱 Will City succumb to a last gasp calamitous own goal and leave empty handed ? 😢 No, thankfully was the outcome. It’s all on the line next Saturday arvo at AAMI against Sydney.

Maybe, but the edge that City have is the pathways from the academies to teams overseas. It would be a one stop shop. Anyway, if City gets its hands on some portion of the lazy $3B, that’ll be good for business 😛
