For the third time in four years, Melbourne Victory will host the A-League Grand Final on home turf and for the uptinth time, much like a thorn in Sydney’s side Kevin Muscat had a part to play in the misery inflicted on the home side. His clever ball through the Sky Blues defense to Archie [...]
With the first match of the 2009/10 A-League finals series merely minutes away, I have to admit that this season, at best, I’ve only managed the odd cheeky live stream from my work desk in the middle east and read some pre-match, post-match reports. So today, I ain’t going to harp on about who should [...]
We’re only an hour or so away from the first match of A-League ver. 5 and already it’s promising to be a cracker of a year!Two new teams in Gold Coast United and North Queensland Fury, new and “unique” kit designs, a host of new faces from local and abroad, ex-socceroos and marquee talent the [...]
When an arrogant, loud mouthed player thinks he is above his coach and team, it’s either time for him to move on… or time for him to receive an ego-grounding size 10 boot to the head, Sir Ferg style! (Remeber this?) Yep that’s right folks, Australia’s most outspoken party-boy, Ljubo Milicevic, has, wait for it… [...]
I know it’s a little delayed and by now everybody knows that Melbourne Victory beat Adelaide United 1 – 0 in front of a near capacity 53, 273 fans at the Telstra Dome Etihad Stadium… but I thought I’d post it anyway. It was a little disappointing to see that the red-cards dished out in [...]
Sugar coat it any way you like, it’s still not going to make Adelaide United play any better or bring a trophy to South Australia… 5 games this season alone have proven that! Unfortunately I won’t be watching this match (I know, tell me about it!)… instead, I’ve got a dirty weekend* planned in a [...]
I have to admit, I’m bloody surprised that Adelaide were able to pull this result out of their arses, especially after the week they just had… and especially cause Fabian Barbiero drilled home the winner. Queensland Roar were clearly the better team on the night dominating play, possession and oportunities but failed miserbly every time [...]
Adelaide United will want to put the last fortnight behind them, most notably the 6-0 aggregate romping they were given by Melbourne and especially the much publicised and scrutinised outbursts by their coach Aurelio Vidmar.Queensland Roar on the other hand are quietly sitting back like a vindictive teenage girl planning on how to make her [...]
If you thought Adelaide’s season couldn’t get any worse, you either need to watch the highlights below or think again! They must have seriously pissed off some afterlife gods or some shit cause the nightmare only seems to continue. It wasn’t enough that they were punished 5-0 on aggregate against Gamba Osaka in the ACL [...]
Archie Thompson knows a thing or two… or 5 about finals football yet even though this isn’t the actual final, the Victory are pretty sure they have one foot in it already… and possibly one hand on the prize too.As it stands so far, Adelaide have only manged to score 2 goals in four matches [...]
Danny ‘The not so lemon’ Allsopp, managed to give Melbourne a great advantage going into next weeks major semi final and heap yet more misery on Aurelio Vidmar’s men. Gees, who’d a thought that Australia’s most successful club team (Adelaide… all though some would argue Melbourne or Sydney), would be struggling so much come the [...]
Queensland’s favourite Dijke, Sergio van Dijke, capped off what was an expected win against the Mariners and they can now go to Suncorp Stadium in a weeks time with one foot in the preliminary final… oh and the other stuck in Dylan Macallister’s leg… nice-one Tiatto you chopstick! Go and play Rugby you menacing half [...]
Everyone’s favourite time of the A-League season is here! It’s a time when grown men are likely to become morons, when heroes car quickly turn to villains (and vice-versa), and when Prime Ministers heads are kissed and the nation laughs!Yeah you know it, I’m talking bout the A-League finals series… Aww shit! Central Coast v [...]
Much has been written in response to the nonsensical dribble that was spat out by Rebecca Wilson and her article only days ago. I normally don’t do this here, but I made a legitimate comment about her article and it was never published… so I’m doing what anyone with an opinion on the matter would [...]
The Newcastle Jets have been crowned as A-League champions for the 2007/08 season and I predicted it before the finals series even started… this makes me a genius and Vukovic an idiot! Not only did he think that Central Coast would win, but he tried to convince Mark Shield of it too! “Danny trains and [...]
