GA and the Russians

[scottmac]

Sounds promising.. Maybe an announcemnet soon then??

you'd hope so, we may only have it in our hands this weekend and a timely shot of reassurance would not go astray

Meat head kids and fat kids with no ability to play Football....that's who play league.

My son has played Football and League and enjoyed both but it's still cooler as a kid to play league. But don't fret when I first came to Oz more than 20 years ago NO kids played football. You would never see kids with a round ball the beach or picnic area. We would start kicked the ball around 5 a side and after a while a few chockos would ask to join in. Now it's more common than Seeing kids with a rugby ball.

Football has come a long way in a short time....in time it will be the dominant code.

I agree that the times, they are a changin'(albiet slowly).

My daughter's school, who has a pro-rugby league principal, has no trouble fielding many teams that want to play football, but for the first time ever, cannot find enough kids to field a rugby league side. This is in so-called 'rugby league heartland'.

Not only that, some of the teachers are wearing shirts with their A-League club logo on it to class. OK, it may be the Scum logo, but it's still football, not the Newcastle Knights.

Music to the ears and eyes!

These are the fans of the future that need to be groomed on loyalty to our code so that child football Club loyalty translates to ongoing adult fandom.

Or he's checking his account to see if it's there yet... A lot like a centrelink pay day.

GA and Mossy also seen with a spring in their step and grin on their faces carrying some documents

 

[Marquee]

Smile and wave, boys. Smile and wave.

 

[nero]

Now for 3 points on the weekend and a point for the scum.

 

[dibo]

They're smiling.

Walking with a bounce in their step.

Holding documents.

At *our* club.

The pessimist in me thinks they've just come to favourable terms on mutual releases, but the optimist in me wants to break out the vodka.

 

[Marquee]

Heard from a very good source that the Russians were due in town today to sign the documents.

 

[nikko]

Looks like both these statements are not true.

GA is waiting for final word about the Russians.

From what I understand a contract has been signed for a takeover. Mind you the Mariners will hardly go and pursue a court case in Russia if the deal gets broken.

last week you said the Russians are gone!!!

it must be the 15th lol

I was at Soccer 5's at tuggerah tonight.

Arnie, Mossy and Peter Turnbull were there and no mention of any takeovers.

And just to let you know as that as a player now .....Arnie makes a great coach!!

Clarky scored an absolute screamer.

 

[Wombat]

Also Mel Mac from Foxports is hot and looks really young in the flesh.
Mike Cockerell has a pole up his arse and is not much of a player.
Adam Peacock is a decent player.

 

[MrCelery]

Mel Mac all sweaty in football kit. Put her in front of the Russkies and we'd have our cheque!

 

[Nathan Byrn]

Nearly as hot as the reception girls

Two of the Russians were there however.

Understand that they are property developers with no experience in running a football club.

Well obviously something changed dramatically in negotiations

That is good news.

The set up there is first class and lots of vacant land surrounding the area, hopefully, would get them excited.

Those five aside courts are fantastic! Even WeeMac was casting envious glances and saying that he hopes they will be allowed to train on one.
