I like the trivia idea Jeterpool!
When i get to work ill make time to have a stab at them.

Actually Number 3 has to be Parisi being that it is written between the lines in the stats

reading this morning that because biraz has been picked in the all-stars game he will miss the FFA cup game

which game is the glorified friendly? The new cup competition game or the a-league all-nobodies + del piero v juventus

what a disgrace

The irony of it all is that the FFA want teams to take the cup seriously..... And even WSW fans are calling the FFA idiots.

:blink: Someone should be losing their job.

What's to say BK wouldn't have got the nod anyhow?

I take your point though, if Taggart was still around we would be crying bloody murder

The big question is will Perth turn up and refuse not to play.

Perth are only missing Hersi, I believe. Why would they refuse to play?

They walked out of a friendly last night against Sydney Olympic because they weren't allowed to warm up on the pitch

Really!??! Ha ha! There you go

After it had promoted all week as a reunion of sorts from 2003?? NSL Grand Final. Fans had arrived, corporate packages had been sold. 1 hour before kick off Perth left.

The whole thing stinks. FFA charging $250,000 if individual teams arrange friendlies, and taking players away from clubs playing in competitive matches for this meaningless friendly.

What is the big picture behind this? Noone supports the "A-League Allstars". It is pure entertainment fluff. That's fine in its own place, but if clubs are penalised for trying to use a bit of enterprise, or to establish links with other football clubs around the world. The A-League as a whole will be the loser and it undermines the real culture of football.

Personally, I would love it if the Jets established a link between one Japanese team, one Chinese team, one Korean team and one MLS team and rotated a friendly game between the four every four years. The purpose behind it would be to open up and develop real and lasting relationships with four specific clubs in our part of the world that aren't dependent on us getting into the Asian Champions League.

It just seems to me that prostituting ourselves to a big European club is both out of our league and of no real long term benefit.

But if the FFA would demand $250,000 for such a scenario each year, just so their A-League Allstars are not outshone, it paints the FFA in a very bad light. Friendlies need not just be about financial returns.

the 250K was not to make sure the allstars werent out shown, but to ensure ony big clubs come out. stipulating the huge fee means that only clubs with huge drawing potential would even be considered.

its ridiculous that clubs struggling financially arent able to go aftera atracting a club they can afford, and take a calculated risk, FFA fee essentially means they have to take a bigger gamble, lay out bigger capital to get a bigger club here..... or have a pronmotre do it.... thne the profit goes to them not the club.

Id love to see the jets host 3 teams Asia in a four team tournament, far cheaper an exercsie than chasing an EPL team.



but forcing clubs to release players when they have FFA cup matches is absurd if they want the FFA cup to be taken seriously.
