So the goss is that Bonada after the semi at the OFC went up to Messarouni and said "we made the finals, do we get the bonus?" Messarouni told him to piss off and that they have contracts and that's all they will get.

Messarouni then told Sinisa not to play him in the final and Sinisa did so everything kicked off from there and he was fired.

Yeah I heard the same... AND to top it all off he was trying to spread the rumour that Sinisas has been swearing at players and THATS why they sacked him.... lying prick, the players I have spoken to would walk through a brick wall for the guy.

Precisely .... and to add to that, did you see Bonada performance against Hume? Busted his arse off AFTER this all happened.

AND was then frozen out of starting line up against Altona... only to force his way back on when we needed some grit....

Think about it, 1 player asking about bonuses shouldnt cause what happened. A normal president would have handled it with 0 disruption.

I told you all its the same reason we didnt get Anastasiadis in 2024 this guy went nuts and botched the deal.

I've had a gutful of this club being hijacked by fuckwits. This bloke should be kissing Sinisas feet for giving his hack son 20 minutes every week. Thinks he can tell the coach to drop a key player before the final, fuck that for a joke.

Messouroni wasnt ont eh board when we approached Johnny A mate, he had resigned for a while remember?

Ohh so it WAS over player payments, EXACTLY like i said! Your players AND coach were promised bonuses. This is why shit hit the fan, i told you all, my direct source is my cousin who is a board member who confirmed it to me.

I figured it would all come out eventually but now you know, yes i can confirm it's true.

Bonuses moron!! Not owed payments like your feeble mind alluded to time and time again.. i get you cant speak grk but to have trouble with english is a real tragedy of our times and the education system in this country!

Who is your cousin, the particular board member who was on transfer market the day after the final trying to find a "marquee" or was your cousin the cock sucker who has single handed destroyed our youth program and sent all of our best players to other NPL clubs to make way for the kids of dumb fuck parents who pay him under the table?

Heard it aswell and am both dumbfounded and shittybas at how each of them acted and reacted

First and foremost, the Egotistical prick half in charge for not having the mindset in the least to deal with this post final.

Secondly, Sinisa for coaching how he did bc i cant bypass the subs etc and throwing in the towel from one point onwards when he shouldve taken the opp to fire bonada and the rest up to win it all and rub it in their faces!

And lastly Bonada, professionalism dictates you dont act like that and if the above is true, and he also looked to take advantage of the team when Manny was no longer available then he can fuck off along with the president...

No one is above the club!

Disagree mate. Any player has every right to negotiate a contract and ask for more money.. especially someone like Bonada who has put his body on the line for our club over and over and over again.. For that malakismeno to get involved with who can and can't play in the final and then sack a coach 3 days after the event in a hissy fit is UNACCEPTABLE.... there are 3-4 lives left for the balcony bros before the call to sack the board comes out, lets hope it doesnt come to that.

He has every right to ask for a pay rise at start of season and i dont have a problem with the asking for the 10k ... but You dont ask for bonus before a final is what im saying... taking advantage of the employer is his perogative if he asked for money but its also the clubs to handle that accordingly, just has to be int he right way!

The way I heard it was that 2-3 players asked if they would get a bonus for winning the OFC ...thats ALL.
 
Souk said:
Yeah i'm not really sure what Bonada's apparently done wrong here lol
Not like he refused to try after he didnt get the bonus as happens in Europe frequently

The bonuses depended on us winning the ofc. All Messourouni had to say was "lets win it and everything will be taken care of". How thin skinned do you have to be to lose to plot just on that?

I have no issue with any player asking about it, its a simple convo, it should not have affected anything going into the final.

I'd assume Mesa Sr is looking for a bone to pick with any player that plays in a similar position to his son
Watch him accuse Swibel of parking in his carpark next week

But they were owed the payments from the bonuses...

During the early days when this had all come out, early sources were saying it was like 14 weeks wages owed, i never said it was that, i was just saying hmmmm interesting, maybe its true because a few people online are all starting to say the same thing, such as that guy who performs as a clown for a living.

It wasnt until later when i ran into my cousin whos on the board, confirmed and told me the actual real story. Now it's out in the open.

I hope no one is shocked, it's just an unfortunate situation due to ignorance and misunderstandings and people with egos who think they know better.

My cousin has said, he feels for the players, hes on their side but he also understands the reasoning why payments werent made even though promised. Just a shitty situation but hopefully for your teams sake, everyone forgets about it, and operates as a collective.

Hi, as someone who has represented current and past players at South Melbourne. I can assure you the club has had a habit on unpaid wages for some time now. This might not be the news you want to hear, but unfortunately it is true. Incompetent president and DOF unfortunately have no idea how to run a club that deserves much better.
