I really feel for the bloke. One is bad enough, but 3....wow. Mitch Cooper has maanged to get playing again after 3 so it is possible. Or was he 2? Kanta has done 2 i'm sure.

Victory 21,842 Wanderers 18,037 Sydney 9,240 City 8,302 Jets 6,979 Adelaide 6,030 Glory 5,889 Mariners 3,691 Roar 3,333 Phoenix 2,200
Wonder how that looks on a per capita basis...but not enough to work it out myself.
Roar 3333...... Does that represent lack of interest or fans waiting for a second team?
The membership numbers are shit for most clubs no matter how you look at it. And given the fact you can watch all the games on Foxtel in HD for a lot less than it costs to go to a game I can't see it improving.
Many here would say that going to the game is better but there are plenty of people that just don't want to deal with crowds or indeed over juiced seccos. Add to that the travel time and so on... and it's really not a difficult decision for many to stay at home and watch rather than go through the rigors of attending matches - especially when your team has little to no chance of success.
now they are free to join their own splinter groups and become even more ultra... :popcorn:
Jets seem to be getting good numbers at home games but very quiet, Sydney fans very vocal at last home game
What ever happened to the Squadron?
Interesting that the league's two best coaches struggle to keep their jobs.
Kwabena Appiah-Kubi gets a move to K-League.
He's closer to Europe than Hoole currently is.
According to Oztransfermarket Hoole wants a move back to the Smurfs for their ACL campaign.
Is Arnie that desperate / dumb?
You gotta question the quality of the advice Hoole gets sometimes. He either ignores good advice or gets gets a bum steer from people who should have his best interests in mind. Either way it has not served him well to date in his HAL career.
Next stop for Hoole will be South East Asia
How good is the FFA ??
8 rounds to go
Season starting to come to the boil
They put a ****ing split round on
As a result cunce lose interest in the comp just at a time they should be getting really excited
Then they go do it again in another 4-5 weeks time
Good one dickheads
Because like most things they have no idea and like to **** things up
Schedule could have been put together wsy better
We play 4 games in 2 weeks
Now have 0 games in 15 days
Bit of a joke really
And if you use ACL as an excuse
There all going to get pumped anyway
ACL isn't an excuse it's the reason.
And if we make it next year and it assists us, I won't complain.
Additionally, I think we need the 2 week break. Whether we deserve it or not, we play once a week, yada yada, I still think we NEED it in the current context of our season.
I agree the break aint going to harm the Jets and thrir current predicament as it allows Roy and Pato to find better fitness allows Vargas time to draw closer plus will allow the squad a chance to get over minor knocks etc
Whether it helpd the Jets in the ACL in future is irrelevant
The thing i talking sbout here is the FFAs stellar competition it uses to promote the code in Oz
And they have created a schddule to take the focus off the game
It going to be a disjointed end to the season with teams not playing and other teams playing
That is ****ed. They are shooting the code in the foot here for a tournament the Aussie football fan hasnt really embraced yet.
HAL is the bread and butter comp
It takes priority
At least they're even close to attempting to help clubs in the ACL, a thing they've basically done the inverse to in previous years.
So, which of the clubs are going to be the first to announce who will be released from the squads? It's usually after the end of season awards dinners so I expect there will be some this week.
