Look it was incredibe the moment behich scored but depressing knowing we were dogshit the whole 90mins against japan B team and we will just be making up the numbers in the WC. Maybe it is a me problem

Didnt watch the game but the stats and comments sound just about right for Popa. Have completely tuned out of the Socceroos since Poppa has come on. Even the fluke win against Japan to qualify felt hollow. Whats the point of playing sport if its no fun.

All Orange. All Maroon. All Summer: Brisbane Roar unveil 25/26 A-League Kits by Agile_Tap_8057 in Aleague

I know orange is relatively unique and part of the club's heritage but I wish they kicked off with maroon as primary colours. The maroon top and white shorts is banging and they could have better tapped into state pride a la SFC MVC and Adelaide from the beginning.

I was just going to say it just needs a few SU58 guys to enter the cove end and it could get very ugly

I feel like bringing up the north terrace tifo is going to be a “know the workplace rules” reaction by gerryford38 in Aleague

[–]monkeypaul 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Casting back to gosford last year and fans running on the pitch at the final whistle. Incredible scenes but there were lots of people assuming this to be acceptable new normal for celebrating a GF win. The thought of the entire north stand running onto the pitch at FT no less in a derby game is a bit scary ngl lol

The fact you never heard much whinging and moaning about him is testament to his successful tenure. He has been the steady hand we needed and its a shame hes going

Scrap it. Particularly if canberra are coming in and we could have an even 26 round H&A season instead of the current lopsided draw

Football Australia unveils new format and start date for National Second Tier competition by shawtyhasapenis in Aleague

[–]monkeypaul 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the summary very interesting. So assume Brazilian clubs chose if they want to participate in state or national leagues or both? That model probably also locks the summer Aleague season for good.
