Did anyone actually ask for penalty shootouts after draws? Or is this just another case of administrative incompetence?

There has to be at least 1 Korean Tottenham fan that supports South Melbourne because of Ange Postecoglou.

I read the report was around 900 pages long. It must have been very thorough. I can't believe nobody has leaked it yet just to embarrass the Federation.

I would bet there are a number of Asian gamblers that have become Hellas fans over the last 12 months due to the club's success :cool:

The only thing football administrators in Australia excel at is incompetency.

When are they extending it to 28 rounds? Or is is just one of those aspirational goals Capital Football has but never does anything about it?

Yep. I don't know why they don't extend the seasons a little bit, they did it during the Covid year so it can't just be about ground availability. Canberra starts late and is also too short. Very common complaint among juniors and seniors as well where they pay a lot of money to sometimes not...

I always found it weird how seasons ended by mid September. Some of the Championship teams will be complaining about lack of match fitness too with a month of no real matches.

Why are they playing finals on a Wednesday night in NSW? They can't extend the season an extra week?

Has anyone released the Baggio report?

Pendlebury had more than $2m invested in the Western Melbourne Group which has blown up. This is highly unlikely to be recovered and as a result he needs to continue playing. Gold Coast offered him a 4 year deal (2 years playing + 2 years coaching), something even Collingwood would not offer...

Kind of wild that one of the effects of the A-League pushing for a third franchise in Melbourne is that Scott Pendlebury is going to play for the Gold Coast Suns.
