    Agree with most of the sentiments on here. Griffiths happy for the Jets to be a fallback option for him if he cant get a gig in Asia, but he is disappointed that he is a fallback option for the jets.. Pot. Kettle. Black.

    Carle is a poor man's #10 as he rarely scores goals.

    I reckon he'll be sticking it out. He signed a two year extension and I don't think ADP will be there next year so he'll have his #10 spot back.

    mariners have got a new CEO - the Roar CEO.

    in the article he said it was ‘‘a really exciting opportunity to work with an iconic brand”. FFS, it's a football club, not a brand. modern sport.

    Soccer: Tuggeranong to appeal FFA Cup decision

    Lee Gaskin

    Tuggeranong United president Jon Thiele says the decision to overlook the Federation Cup champion for the inaugural FFA Cup ''defies all logic'' and will appeal to Capital Football to have the move overturned.

    However, Capital Football believes it would be unfair to the remainder of the clubs in Canberra because they were unaware at the time a place in the ground-breaking nationwide tournament would be up for grabs.

    A pre-season competition will be held in March and April featuring the eight teams in the Canberra National Premier League to determine who will represent the ACT in this year's FFA Cup.

    The winner of Canberra's own knockout tournament, the Federation Cup, will qualify for the FFA Cup in subsequent years.

    Thiele was adamant his club was entitled to secure the spot in the competition and have the chance to potentially take on the big guns from the A-League.

    ''The decision made this year not to allow the current Federation Cup winner to participate is incorrect and we don't understand Capital Football's reasoning behind it,'' Thiele said.

    ''It just defies all logic.

    ''I will write a letter with the expectation of the appropriate response from Capital Football and I don't see any reason why they shouldn't overturn it.''

    The FFA Cup is a knockout competition based on the FA Cup in England and will involve 32 teams from across the country, including the nine Australian-based A-League clubs.

    It is tentatively scheduled to kick off in late July,
    while the Federation Cup won't conclude until September.

    It means clubs which only field teams in the second-tier Capital State League can't qualify for the FFA Cup.

    ''I was disappointed how this was outlined to the Capital Football clubs,'' Thiele said.

    ''The draw came out for the pre-season competition [in December] and it had in fine print the winner of this competition would go through to the FFA Cup.

    ''The FFA Cup was originally designed for a club at any level, so now they're going against what Football Federation Australia had originally established.''

    Capital Football men's competition league manager Alasdair Grocock admitted the situation wasn't ideal, but said it was the fairest solution for the majority of clubs.

    ''At that stage the FFA hadn't decided how the mechanics of the FFA Cup were going to work,'' Grocock said.

    ''When we ran the competition last year, we weren't running it with any premise that the winner was going any further than being announced as the Federation Cup winner for that year.

    ''In hindsight, you could say we could have done it, but we could have been amiss to clubs not saying that the winner of the competition could have been going forward [to the FFA Cup].''

    Based on the FA Cup in England, only involves 32 teams. Yeah, OK.

    Sounds more like a Champions League format than FA Cup.
