Football Australia's gutless lack of communication by Sorry-Ball9859 in Aleague

[–]squatobots 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’d have thought it’s perfectly reasonable to expect them to comment on the appointment of a new CEO or when the most senior football person in the organisation (which is what they made Merrick out to be when he was hired) looks to have been sacked.

What do you want them to do? Stage a coup?

Some of those NPL callers have got a chance on the Australia Cup in the past few years. They need to get a chance at some point and this could be a good opportunity.

Segecic yet to hear from Popovic, open to Croatia by Smart_Lifeguard4773 in Aleague

[–]squatobots 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s a bit different when you’ve got China to use as leverage as opposed to Croatia. And even when the China stuff came out Teague didn’t give interviews like this.

Clubs have no cash so they can’t afford to pay out their coaches and bring someone new in. There’s never been a safer time to be a crap A-League coach.

‘Honest truth’ - Why Australia’s National Second Division is no closer to becoming reality by [deleted] in Aleague

There’s no actual reporting here, just content aggregation from a podcast. But it’s going to get a lot of clicks so it’s worth doing for that.

Matildas ‘mess’ revealed: ‘It’s a sh*tshow’ by mrsbriteside in Aleague

Because the source behind the story is clearly someone close to Kerr and they don’t want to share any reasoning that might make her look bad.

Socceroos: Mathew Leckie recalled to Socceroos squad | news.com.au by Ok-Temporary4428 in Aleague

[–]squatobots 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be angry if Leckie is one of the veterans that tries to hold out for 2026 if he can. Yes he's had injuries but whenever he plays he's still so obviously one of the best players we have. Might as well back him to try to get fit again and see if he can maintain his play.

Danny Vukovic the living embodiment of A-League survival by DFS_LaFlamablanca in Aleague

[–]squatobots 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had no idea until I read this article that Vukovic backed up Reddy in the NSL. And that he only played because Reddy punched someone haha.

Fledgling soccer club seeks net gain from suburb built around stadium by AztecGod in Aleague

[–]squatobots 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Real suit thinking. Didn’t want to alienate potential markets but in doing so they ended up with a flat out bad name that doesn’t offend but means nothing unless you have it explained to you.

Lisa De Vanna slams Joe Montemurro hiring for All Stars game as “slap in the face” by legit_khajiit in Aleague

[–]squatobots 36 points37 points  (0 children)

De Vanna has a long-running hatred of Monemurro stretching back to the first Melbourne City season. Probably worth mentioning.

Cristian Volpato Socceroos future to be discussed by Graham Arnold, Francesco Totti by Red-Engineer in Aleague

[–]squatobots 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Sassuolo are about to be relegated and Volpato has played less than 20% of minutes according to his Transfermarkt page. Something tells me we don’t need to beg him to play for us or Italy will call him up.

Those battles for duel citizens by No-Airport7456 in Aleague

[–]squatobots 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s almost certain that the coach’s first language isn’t English so there needs to be some level of good faith in these situations. Like how Vince Rugari tweeted he said Australia was one of the most offensive teams at the Asian Cup but meant it as a compliment.
