Yeah, nah - a thoroughly disappointing performance! Didn’t even know Irvine was on the pitch until the 45th minute when he botched a shot. Still second in this Group with Bahrain 🇧🇭 losing to China.

Pathetic Ch 10!

Australia's attacking tactics/strategy/imagination etc. is virtually non-existent. Considering Arnold was a striker in his heyday, I don't see him advocating a high-level attacking game plan, which he should be capable of. If we can't beat Bahrain, then they have Buckley's chances against Japan and ...

It seems to be aligned with Seniors divisions with a few exceptions.

It's always been rigged in favor of the bigger clubs.

They have too many juniors as it is and then they create extra JSL teams to fill their pockets.

Worst manager came second which is complete muscat.

It really worries me that the FA will give Southgate a contract extension .

Would be a sad situation if they re-appoint Southgate.

That 1st red card for Macarthur the other night was very soft.

Soft, or wrong?

The whole game has gone soft.

Well they rescinded the red card this afternoon, so they decided it was wrong. He can now play this week.

Elder hasn't been great at A-league level.

Irankunda is not to blame for the debacle.

He wasn't selected in the first place.

Adel United would have pressured him not to go when he eventually got a call-up.

Red faces all around, as AU still failed to get anywhere.

If the club management is not strong-willed enough to remove that underperforming coach, they should remove themselves and let others step in to run clubs professionally.

What about stopping real crime instead of this petty insignificant rubbish. Wasting Police, legal system and media resources is such a waste of people's time and extremely costly. real crime, like BLM protests, locking people in houses during covid lockdowns??? All a waste of Police resources.

I'll pick a coach with playing experience at a senior level every time.

would you pick Maradona or Wenger as a coach?

Probably not at EPL level, but at other senior level competitions I'm sure they can deliver more than most.

Licences don't matter. Just revenue raising by FA/FSA. They do matter in the Competition Rules. FSA are quite strict on this at NPL, SL1 and SL2 level. Clubs who dont have a licenced coach at that required level are fined, thats why every club just lists the person who has that particular licence ...

Where's he from?

Well done.

A Ref that actually played the game.

Depends on where you live, since the time and effort required with kids football is energy sapping. Cumberland, Birkalla & Para Hills have on average over the years had very good junior teams and support. No guarantees though that you will end up in an enjoyable, good coach team. It changes year to ...

Do not go with the big clubs if you want a fair opportunity.

Rideout decision justified. It was always a good decision, Ant's a good coach, he get's Dad's advice when he needs it and it keeps Alex and JJ happy, wins all round in my book And a shout out to Pete, get well soon mate, you're going to need a strong heart to watch Leeds in the Championship ...

Rideout decision justified.

If a team comes bottom or near to it, then coaches should walk.

Too many excuses.
