inb4 FFA introduce transfer fees between HAL clubs.

9.4
(b) A National League Club cannot transfer or loan a Professional:
(i) (ii)
to another National League Club; or
to a Member Federation Club or Institute during the term of his Professional Player Contract unless the National League Club can satisfy FFA that exceptional circumstances exist. In making its determination, FFA will consider factors such as:

Doesn't even have an EU passport. Technically the rules haven't been broken but clear exploitation of a loop hole. Can of worms for the FFA. Either allow transfers between clubs or bring on a third party club free for all for everyone.

Thank you Sydney own goal

A-League refs make AFL umps look like a brainstrust .

FBK was a dill flicking out a kick but the Perth player did a delayed academy award swan dive in front of the referee like he'd been shot  . It deserved the initial yellow but the linesman feel for the dive and convinced the ref to change his mind to a red card  .

On the game itself, it was always a danger game backing up from Tuesday  . First goal conceded was amateuris and still asleep when their second one went in just two minutes later. Fought back to 2-2 even with 10-men thanks to Berisha  but then topped up a dopey night giving away a penalty.

Melbourne Defeat are Glory Hole's bunnies.

Glory won't make the finals so Victory won't care.

[Diocletian]

I don't really care either, A-League is arse.

I don't really care either, A-League is arse.

tell that to a WSW fan that watched them become Champions of Asia vs. the megadollar Middle East, Asian powerhouses

they would kick your ass and yell at you in arabic



'tis a bit ass and flawed but - we must unite against the Lowy dictatorship and bring in the wog clubs into a promotion/relegation format. 

[Diocletian]

Bring back Wollongong Wolves.

[mightytiges]

Moronic RBB giving the Rebecca Wilson's more ammo to throw at the sport.

Berisha  .
Vuko's save  .

[mightytiges]

Argh! Finished 1-1. We didn't back up and close down the space and gave away an equalizer from outside the box with 7 mins to go  .

Spend less time worrying bout bec wilson my boy

Statement from FFA CEO David Gallop on fan behaviour

Football Federation Australia Chief Executive David Gallop has released a statement following last night's Hyundai A-League match between Melbourne Victory and Western Sydney Wanderers.

"The behaviour of some fans and in particular a section of the Western Sydney Wanderers fans at last night's match was unacceptable and will not be tolerated," said FFA CEO David Gallop. "FFA is currently compiling all reports from Victorian Police, stadium security and both clubs before deciding what action to take.

"This is a clear reminder of the type of people we do not want in our game and that will be reflected in the final outcomes of our enquiries.

"FFA is currently undertaking a review of the security and banning procedures to ensure a fair process for fans who are identified as misbehaving but will not waver from protecting the safety of spectators.

"Finding that balance during the banning process is central to our review but last night's events should be a reminder that the actions of a minority can damage the reputation and image of the game. That is why we will continue to identify and ban troublemakers."
