Gypos - lolz go in here

Their CEO is apparently pretty good. Charlesworth is their problem. No outside cap spending, no money above the salary floor... they are only spending what they have to under the CBA. Hard to not imagine Mulvey getting the exact same kind of output next season without money... best they can hope for is dire, rigid but organised football like Miller did with us in his season.

Sorry, got Owner and CEO mixed up.

I heard that somehow they can't even afford to spend the entire salary cap. Not sure how that works given the way the cap is paid by the TV rights deal, but it was mentioned a few times on the CCM forum.

Also, plenty of talk about a drinking culture within the team.


Hurry up and move them to North Sydney.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the club confirmed that Liam Rose, Storm Roux, Jacob Poscoliero, Josh Bingham, Blake Powell, Peter Skapetis and Tom Glover will all conclude their time on the Coast.

[Jeterpool]

Wasn't Liam Rose being courted by City at one point?

Skapetis looked ok the 2 times I watched him but he mustn't have set the world on fire to be released by the then lowly-placed Roar and then last-placed Mariners. Same with Poscoliero - didn't happen for hm in Perth before moving back to teh Mariners.

Roux is meant to be going to Victory.

Glover, back to Spurs I'd suggest before coming back to Australia.

Bingham has finally been found out. Powell has just fallen off a cliff from his Nix form but could see him at the Wanderers.

Love your work Turbo.

Gypos denied re-entry into the W-League. Maybe the men's team could transfer to that and have a (slightly) better chance of not coming last.

Why were they denied?

Why were they denied?

FFA's main reasoning was concerns of a "talent deficit". Also advised their priorities before adding new teams are:

1. Broadcast and live streaming of all WWL matches and
2. Delivering a full home and away schedule

Really though, when the club has come out and said they'll be operating A-League side on the absolute bare-minimum funds to stay afloat it's hard to see why they thought getting a W-League license to add to their expenses would be a good idea.

If they hadn’t already got a few credits in the bank from their consistent finals appearances, surely more people would be questioning their viability by now.

A full home and away schedule, even thought there is a bye round. You might wonder if a W-League team is a requirement for teams that have expressed an interest in joining the comp?

You could then read into it that with Canberra already have a W-League team and the addition of 1 more W-League team from the other (say Wollongong) would fill the home and away season. #conspiracy

[MFKS]

Thought they had a team full of women already??

Called their HAL side

Put them in the W League be about their level

8-2 have to support that shite Mulvey has to coach

Anyone got an update on Hoole's Euro adventure?

Do you think he'd be expecting to play in the Youth Team after only one year in Europe?
