A-League Transfers and Rumours

[bulldogmariner]

Daal and Williams have re signed for the Fury. Good to see Daal staying in the league for another season. Quite a quality player.

portsmouth are targeting galekovic

 

[Forum Phoenix]

Think he deserves a crack at something bigger, proved himself to be a quality keeper.

 

[Atomic]

He certaily didn't do his chances any harm against Sydney. I thought he had an awesome game and probably cemented himself above Danny in the socceroo pecking order (if he wasn't there already)

 

[Roy Law]

There is an embargo on Portsmouth buying players until they settle some outstanding debts and Galekovic hasn't got a EU passport and hasn't played enough Socceroo games.

Yeah read about that a bit earlier...
Real pity.

Craig Moore's Brisbane Roar career is over after the club backed coach Ange Postecoglou in a 'him or me' ultimatum delivered by the star defender, according to media reports.

As a Pompey fan I am glad, had he moved ahead of Begovic there would be riots in the stands

Good on Ange. I can't help but think that there was a cabal running the show in there that needed to be broken up for the side to function well. How long til Bob Malcolm asks for his plane fare to f**k off back to Scotland?

While Farina was happy for the players to partake in their own non-football activities, it's believed Postecoglou has no intention of turning a blind eye. Discipline, at all times, appears to be valued higher than everything else.

(I assume non-footballing activities involve getting on the piss a lot?)

LOL @ our libel laws.

Can you imagine what the press in the UK would have uncovered (and reported) by now?

+1 , did himself no favours, nor that of his squad. TBH glad he was given the boot, dinosaurs not needed if the a-league is to progress.

They still haven't published the name of the coach who had a deep and meaningful interaction in the red light district.

Decent young player  - if his knee has recovered he will go alright for them

And Chris Coyne rumoured to be off to China for 4 months on loan (must have seen Colosimo on Weds night and reckons he has a chance)

 

[FFC Mariner]

McBreen to play rest of this season with Perth and Downey to go the other way. WTF?
