Bosnich turns heads in cameo

Mark Bosnich has done his chances of a contract with A-League club Central Coast no harm with an impressive 30 minutes against Queensland.
The Mariners made it back-to-back Pre-Season Cup wins, scoring twice in the space of three first-half minutes en route to a 2-1 win over the Roar at Perry Park in Brisbane.
While the Roar were wasteful with a bulk of possession, neat finishing from Ahmed Elrich and Dylan McAllister gave the Mariners a 2-0 half-time advantage.
And despite the home team's best efforts and Michael Zullo's 51st minute strike, the visitors were able to keep their noses in front.
Comeback keeper Bosnich didn't make an appearance until the 64th minute but he made two vital contributions.
Bosnich first beat out a sweetly struck Charlie Miller shot as the Scottish midfielder raced in on the Central Coast goal, then snaffled a 'slips catch' from an otherwise goal-bound Matt McKay flick.
With Melbourne and Wellington having already qualified for the final, the match was effectively a dead rubber. But an entertaining match belied that fact, with the second half producing plenty of talking points.
Two minutes before Zullo pulled a goal back, Roar skipper Craig Moore was giving his marching orders for what referee Peter Green adjudged to be a studs-up challenge on the influential Andre Gumprecht.
Miller showed he would be one of the league's best recruits, with an energetic display notable for some deft touches and an impressive range of passing.
Earlier, the Roar dominated possession for the best part of the first half-hour, only to come up empty on the scoreboard.
With Danny Tiatto generating substantial drive down the left flank and Miller dictating proceedings in the middle of the park, the Roar had plenty of half-opportunities but weren't able to capitalise on time spent on the ball.
The danger of that predicament was emphasised in the 29th minute when Elrich ghosted in behind the defence to rifle home with his right foot.
The former Wellington and Fullham player had earlier headed wide from an Adrian Caceres cross when unmarked and in perfect position to score but he needed no second invitation with his second opportunity.
In less than three minutes it was 2-0 this time through the agency of McAllister. Sasha Petrovski broke free down the left side and when his attempted chip came back of the bar, McAallister was there to take advantage.
The Roar could easily have found itself three behind inside 40 minutes, as the increasingly prominent Petrvoski's deflected shot skimmed the bar and went behind for a corner.
Much to the relief of the home crowd, the Roar regained its composure as the first half wound down. Tiatto regained ascendancy down the left side and Miller very nearly had a goal when his well-struck shot was brilliantly parried by Danny Vukovic.
Miller had been teed up by a cute backheel from the promising Tim Smits.

The Central Coast Mariners have warmed up for the new season in the best possible fashion by downing Hyundai A-League rivals the Queensland Roar 2-1 in their final 2008 Pre-Season Cup fixture at Brisbanes Perry Park this afternoon.
Ahmad Elrich and Dylan Macallisters first goals in a competitive fixture for the Mariners were enough to see the Mariners claim a rare win over the Roar just their third in fourteen official outings.
Michael Zullo responded in the second half for the home side, who were earlier reduced to ten men after captain Craig Moore was shown a straight red card for a harsh challenge on Mariners midfielder Andre Gumprecht.
The Mariners will now set their sights on the opening fixture of their Hyundai A-League Premiership defence Round 1 of the Hyundai A-League 2008/09 season against the Newcastle Jets at EnergyAustralia Stadium on Friday, 15 August. Kick off is at 8pm.
The Mariners will return to their Bluetongue Stadium home the following round, where they will host southern rivals Sydney FC on Saturday, 23 August. Kick off is at 7pm.
Tickets for this fixture will go on sale in the near future from all Ticketek outlets.
Mariners Memberships for the Hyundai A-League 2008/09 season are now on sale at www.ccmariners.com.au.

I have been advised the original comment was in relation to season proper
He's implementing a fine print "ESCAPE" clause apparently...

. after the fact? definitely not mentioned before .... in fact i think he was getting a bit worried a couple of days ago
. the only 'out' would have been if it had happened in the 2009 part of the season
. and we all know how good it worked out for the mariners when they tried to change gumpy's contract conditions

Bear did say to me in conversation that he was talking about was season proper.
Sorry to Bex and others who were quite looking forward to it.
Kind of glad though, don't want to see him eat his shirt............. yet
