He probably believes it, but that doesn't make it true.

I've lived in Western Sydney for 40 years and in my experience while people have their preferences it's always been both/and for league and football (not an either/or). The Eels owned Parra Power in the NSL at one stage and the NRL/football have lobbied together in NSW for better facilities...

So pumped for Ange. Europa league champions. First Aussie manager to win a major European tournament.

I haven't been watching much this season, so this is a question from genuine ignorance - but why hasn't Noah Botic come up as a potential in any discussions? He seems to have delivered at youth levels and is currently the top goal scorer in the A-League. Surely we should be at least bringing him...

Heartbreaking mistake. Hope it doesn't decide the game.

Spurs fans starting to turn more and more on Ange. Pressure definitely mounting.

Don't think I've ever gone so quickly from so miserable with a draw to so happy with a draw.

How did they balls that up? Come on lads!

Great work Gauci.

Had to do better.

Lost it again playing out from the back. It's not working!

How the hell was there no foul there?

Popa making the same stupid mistake that Ange did of insisting on playing out from the back no matter how the opposition are pressing. This idiotic belief that it's bad to ever kick the ball to halfway is going to cost us big time and drives me crazy.

Glad Balard was finally chosen. Those "forwards" though are a sad indictment on the state of Australian football.

I was just talking about the peak of Bosnich's career i.e. he was the only one to make it to the absolute top. In terms of longevity in the top league, Schwarzer obviously has it over everyone. But it's not as if Bosnich was only a 1 hit wonder. He played 179 EPL/First Division games with...

Yeah, I wouldn't have him #1 on that metric. For that, Schwarzer all the way.

Don't know how you can go past Bosnich. While we will always lament the wasted career and wonder what might have been, he was the starting goalkeeper in the Man Utd when they won the EPL in 99-00. No one else has reached those heights.

Which shows the flaws of the metric. 230 games for 1860 Munich, including 121 in the Bundesliga and 13 games in Europe is far more significant than 2 x 25+ game seasons.
