R21 Glory vs CCM

[true believer]

glory making announcement at 2pm .

Fergie might be getting some more time to work on his golf swing.

 

[true believer]

2 dollars on cullina signed as coach and junior sook going with him.

 

[dibo]

That would probably be the smartest thing Perth Glory have done in the last 8 years. A midfield with Burns and Culina sitting behind Liam Miller would be pretty bloody good.

He's been in the National Under-age setup for yonks.

 

[true believer]

so which , a league, nsl or other did he coach?

 

[Scotty]

Yep, Fergie goooone.

Former Socceroo Alistair Edwards, coach of the Australian under-17s, will take over as caretaker role of the Glory for the rest of the season.

He didn't but that doesn't mean he's a nobody. Everybody starts somewhere, and his resume is better than Aloisi, Mulvey, Valkanis... etc. Plus he's a former Glory player and a Perth native. Good signing.

Bugger. Teams always lift when their coach is sacked. Look at Adelaide. Bad timing for us. But we have the quality to deal with it this weekend.

. not being part of the facebook generation i can't "like" that comment ... but i can agree

. no doubt perth will have suddenly jumped up several rungs on the sbs love ladder ... without having even played a a game under their new coach i am sure they are already playing an attractive brand of football

Definitely, would have been a lot better for us had Sage waited just one more week. Could have claimed another manager's scalp too.

I reckon we have, they just wielded the axe before instead of after.

 

[Dutch Wives]

I'd say you are right haha

 

[Gratis]

with how the boys are playing they'll still dismantle them. the new coach will have his own ideas and as such they'll be inconsistant over an entire game

 

[Gratis]

poor guy, someone has to be at the bottom of the ladder. Fergie was good at the Mariners though in fairness never really did all that much with NQ Fury either and this was a shot of faith by Perth to give him a solid go. with their players they should be doing better
