Aloi$i now for Sydney FC

[Jesus]

1.4m is a shitload of members, Jesus.

How valuable he is to them really depends on the marketing department. If they use him well enough, in a place the size of sydney, wether by merchandicing, people going to games, members, people watching on tv, sponsors dollars, he is of big enough profile to make that money back for them.

Yeah I know what you mean Jesus, memberships is only a minor thing, commercially he'd be worth a bit, especially if we had him in the ACL........but if we spent $1.4 we'd be in a lot of financial trouble lol

Agreed. He is worth more to them than he would be to us. Purely on market size.

As i said on the chat, I would rather watch Mrdja return from injury whilst Dylan and Sasho bang em in, instead of wasting 1.4 on that dumb f**k.

He does less than he thinks.

 

[Arabmariner]

"Can't grow any more" ? LOL, he has no idea then.
Don't you just love proving people wrong.
He's going to eat those words along with his antidandruff shampoo!  verhead:

Every time this Aloi$i opens his mouth he gives us more reason to bag the shit out of him.

Can't wait to see us shut his trap in front of a close to full house at Bluetongue and then in front of an empty(apart from the away end) SFS! :

All fair points and you're right.

Serious doubts over the mangement acumen of that club to make it work though. Will be happy to be proven wrong. For the good of our game, I hope they can convert their investment instead of taking the Sydney public for granted and treating them with contempt. And I'm not talking about the garbage they dish up on the pitch.

First chance to bag this guy is gone! Not surprising though.

[serious14]

Hahaha, he'll play 10 games this season at most...... karma is a bitch like that.

He won't do much good as a lone man up front for Sydney anyway - that heinous 4-2-3-1 shit is likely to rear it's ugly head again.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Hoooooooooooooooooof

Well, thats Kossies tactics taken care of

 

[marinersman]

Agree with Serious. Be lucky if he plays a dozen games this season.

I think his knee injury is far more chronic than is being let on.

Money aside, I bet it was a big reason in us not going hard to re-sign him.

 

[scottmac]

I think we did go hard he was just never going to sign for us. His wife wanted to move to sydney.
Whipped. ;D

Whether we went hard or not I get the feeling we have been lucky in not signing him.

Aloi$i plays less than half a season for Flying Circus and struggles.

Mrja gets over his dodgy ticker and is a-league top scorer.

"The 'Marinators' will probably give me a bit of stick, I expect it," he said. "But I really enjoyed my time there, and I think a lot of their supporters respect what I did. At least that's what they told me before I left."

Yes John a couple of us told you that at the end of season preso, but that doesn't mean we won't give you shit!  verhead:

 

[Paolo]

WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY! WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY!

 

[RADINHO]

WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY! WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY!

Thats a definate chant when John Aloisi takes to the field.

 

[bjw]

Backs turned even?

 

[priorpeter]
