Given how one Fozzie treated LM... this is an interesting response by Slatter to Fosters article... Fosters article is http://www.smh.com.au/sport/a-league/magilton-signing-takes-victory-back-in-time-20120114-1q0gq.html?rand=1326545896325

Ok here goes . I am sick of the continual attacks and in my opinion racist comments from @Craig_Foster on British people his article in todays sun herald in my opinion is a racist column and it is beyond me how he continually gets away with these vile articles . Craig, you have disgraced yourself . What a way to welcome someone to our great country and please Jim Magilton do not think this is the way that decent Australians welcome people from other countries . Who Craig do you think you are to tell the victory of who they should employ and of what race . Why do you pretend to know what and who is a good coach. You have never coached anyone and why is nationality important . British people have made a massive contribution to the history of our game and continue to do so just. It is surprising that you dislike the British so much because after all they gave you a career playing in the guess what . The championship . You didn't mind the British then did you ? Good money you earned and you enjoyed it all with the help of an englishman Terry venables . The best you ever had didn't you once say ? a man who saw more in you than anyone else did . What is this pedestal you have put yourself on it is not the one the late and great Johnny Warren stood on he would be ashamed of you ! And who are you to preach with your dark secret well bugger you, you upset my 82 year old father who had a tear in his eye after reading your crap . Yes he is English but back to your secret explain to all your followers why you are the only socceroo to have been to my knowledge effectively banned never to be selected again after a disgraceful incident following a world cup qualifier in Tahiti . Maybe the true legend who got you out of that Tahitian jail should of left you there ! @Craig_Foster hang your head in shame and @lesmurraySBS you should haul him into your office and tell him his comments are unacceptable after all he does work for the excellent multi cultural channel SBS surely They can't be happy with this sort of behavior . Enough is enough ! And that's all I have to say about THAT !

Yours truly, RobbieSlater17

Not a great fan of Forster but I didn`t find the article racist & I was born in England.

I think he danced around the main point which was "Is Magilton good enough to coach Victory".Personally I don`t really care.

The Victory board will ultimately decide if he is or isn`t.As a certified Aussie I say "give him a go".Let his career with Victory be decided by his results like every other coach in the league no matter what his nationality.

I think Robbie has over-reacted to the article but he has opened a can of "whoop-ass"on Forster & the media will ultimately print the whole story of Forster`s indescretion.

It should make some interesting reading in the coming days. :popcorn:

Note : Wiki also notes that Forster did actually coach NERDS FC in season 2..FYI

Best laugh I've had in a while.


Foster really is a snobbish elitist twat with a chip on his shoulder. Hilarious to see where this one goes.

He may be a bit impartial with his commentary at times but Robbie Slater is really one of the nicest guys in football. It must have really upset him to call out foster like that.

I did the stats for fox up here for a few years and the only one I couldn't stand was Andy Harper. I asked Simon Hill what he thought of Foster and he said "one of the reasons I left SBS".
