    2021 FFA Cup

    Reports on twitter are that if we lose tonight and have to play Glory in the FFA Cup play off they will book it for 14th June in Perth - i.e. Tuesday night.

    Wait and see...

    Will be good to get the loss out of the way early so the new coach can concentrate on the pre-season.

    If Jets get past WU, we will have 3 home games in the round of 32, all against A League opposition.

    So Olympic put these new lights in a few years ago and they still don't cut the mustard?
    Is it a 300 lux requirement for a broadcast we're talking about?
    Does anybody have any solid knowledge of the light readings on those two grounds?

    FFA Cup would have to be in some doubt at the moment.

    Gee whiz it's good hearing Simon Hill commentating Floreat vs Adelaide. Has there been any word when our playoff game is? The round of 32 games will be finished before we even play our qualifier at this rate.. or have I missed something?

    Also I hope paramount+ puts on a better broadcast than this. The picture ain't great

    Did Olympic sign Roy just for this game or has been playing for them all winter?

    So, the name of the FFA Cup is changing???

    https://www.footballaustralia.com.au...-tv-network-10

    During the pre-game show the new name of Australia’s national knockout football competition, which enables clubs at all levels of Australia’s football ecosystem to compete against one another, will be revealed.

    This new name will signify a new era for a competition that routinely attracts over 700 participating clubs from every State and Territory across Australia.

    Mixed feels.

    If the concept remains the same, giving any club in Australia a chance to win, then I don’t have a massive problem.
    Would be nice to keep building history with the same name.

    Huge problem if they start branding it as the “inaugural” and scrap the last 8? Years.

    huge problem if a team from NZ wins australia's premiere knock out comp. anyway.

    good opportunity to rename it the 'Australia Cup' and re-establish some links with our heritage. First game in each region should be between some of the founding teams - in the Hunter it would be Toronto Awaba v Adamstown Rosebuds.

    Probably like his team had 70% possession, 1 of 16 shots on target.
    Not gonna lie, I’m finding the whole wsw demise as much fun as watching mariners lose.
