A-League and Australia Cup 2023/24

Upset in today’s Australia Cup Semi Final with NPL side Sydney United 58 came back from being behind twice to defeat Brisbane Roar 3-2 aet. They become the first NPL finalist. Now if Oakleigh Cannons can we do the same to Macarthur on Wednesday.
I'd presume if Macarthur win then the Final will be at CommBank Stadium in Parramatta. Unsure how they decide if Oakleigh win. Toss a coin?

Probably AAMI if the Cannons fire and win the toss for venue although wouldn’t be surprised if Football Australia wangle it to be held in Sydney as they’ll get a larger crowd as it’s Sydney United/Croatia. One thing is certain if Macarthur are in the Final there will be far more opposition fans than Bulls fans.

Didn’t realise the AFC U17 Asian Cup qualifying tournament was on until it popped up on my YouTube recommendations. Australia in same group as Cambodia, China and Northern Mariana with all games being played in Shepparton. China beat Cambodia 9-0 in the early game. At HT in the late game it was Australia 10 Northern Mariana 0. After 83 minutes it’s now 21-0.

FT 23-0

Never knew this was happening.

Interesting that a few of the clubs involved are below level 2. West Torrens Birkalla finished bottom of the NPL SA Premier League this season so will be level 3. Caroline Springs George Cross (VIC) used to be Sunshine George Cross and played in the old NSL from 1984 to 1991, Kevin Muscat started with them. They are a Vic State League 1 NW (level 5). Think Wyndham Wolves is Wynnum Wolves, QLD Premier League 2 (level 4).

The APL proving they’re as competent as the FFA/SFA/SPFL by announcing a 3 year deal to host all A-League Grand Finals in Sydney. They will be hoping it’s not Perth Glory v Western Utd and at least 1 Sydney or NSW side makes it. Bunch of useless cûnts.

Fair to say this has universally been condemned, and quite rightly so. GFs featuring no Sydney teams will have pish attendances. Hell even if Macarthur qualify it'll be a poor attendance. Here's hoping the sheer weight of criticism overturns the decision.

Victory and Mel C fans supposedly going to do a protest walkout at 20 minute mark of this week’s derby. 
 

Canberra and Auckland as new A-League clubs? Canberra yes but another NZ side?

You'd have thought Auckland could put together a team if Wellington can, and it's a good bit closer to Sydney, say, than Perth.

During fan protest at the Melbourne derby some idiot has hit the City goalie and ref with something.Wasn’t watching but think game will be abandoned. Any positives from the Socceroos World Cup campaign just down the dunny.
