cadete Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 but the league is going so well that the FFA can lift the salary floor & the PFA can threaten strike action if they don't get a 40% increase in the salary cap (which if it happened would surely mostly go to foreign players)As I have mentioned before there is clearly now despite the Cap a gap between those who can spend and survive and those who are struggling to keep things moving along at a decent pace... we are one of three (four if you include The Nix) clubs who have had a uninterrupted preseason which means no more excuses for JVS.

Deluka Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Aloisi has just pulled out of a pre-season friendly against the Young Socceroos as a number of players are either injured or match fitness.Squad of 19 and unable to field a team three weeks out from the season, losing an opportunity to gain match fitness for players. Imagine if they were still in the FFA Cup?Wish we had them round 1, should be an easy win for the Wanderers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of turmoil around them right now.surely you just fill up the squad with youth players? We have 9 out and can still field a side.

pattyd89 Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 What's this I hear about Luke Brattan getting signed by Man City and then loaned out straight away? What's the benefit for Man City? He would never play for them, would continually be loaned out - Man City wouldn't make much money off him for loan signing fees every time he gets shipped out... we have Mooy already so he wouldn't fit here, New York have Pirlo... maybe Yokohama?

We literally had this conversation every match. I never denied he was playing shit, I always argued that he was a good player who had been broken by JA. All the good attributes he had when he came to us (and were seen when he displaced Bolton) quickly dissappeared under JA and that shitty GK coach we had at the time. Redders went from a keeper who would make saves and hold the ball and play out from the back to a keeper who made shitty attempts to punch the ball away and always go long. I wont deny that Brisbane won purely because of him last night however the roar have always played a certain style of game (regardless of whether they have implemented it well in a particular season is a different matter) and the roar fans that KSK highlighted were attributing this style of play to JA purely because he made some good comments a few weeks ago (talking seems to be the only thing JA is good at). It was this the style of play I chose to comment on and not the reason they won. I chose to do this because of large similarities with Heart in that I believe JVS style of play legacy stopped people realising how shit JA was early on as even though JVS is shit JA is significantly worse.

Young Polak Posted May 30, 2016 Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 http://www.goal.com/en-au/news/4021/a-league/2016/05/30/24074142/whats-going-on-at-brisbane-roar?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=enaufb The Bakrie Group are again in trouble at Brisbane Roar with Football Federation Australia threatening to take back their A-League licence Reports suggest Football Federation Australia (FFA) has given the Bakrie Group until 5pm AEST on Monday to prove their commitment to Brisbane Roar or lose their A-League licence. The past 12 months have been a mess for Roar, with players and staff regularly paid late in the lead-up to the 2015-16 season, and administrators coming and going. Despite that Brisbane performed strongly on the field this season, just missing out on the premiership before giving up a 3-0 lead in a semi-final to lose. But with reports the Bakrie Group are baulking at investing more funds to allow Roar coach John Aloisi and director of football Craig Moore to recruit for next season, FFA has seemingly lost patience with the Indonesian conglomerate, which is run by Nirwan Bakrie. It could be the end of the Bakrie era at Roar, with Brisbane having been under their control since late 2011. Brisbane Roar's roller-coaster year June 23, 2015 - FFA slam Brisbane Roar's "unacceptable" failure to pay players and staff on time. July 9, 2015 - Roar chairman Chris Fong claims Bakrie Group will sell the club. July 24, 2015 - Queensland Rugby Union make an application to Queensland Supreme Court to wind up Roar over nearly 12 months of unpaid rent at Ballymore - the A-League club's former training base. August 17, 2015 - Roar players and staff paid late for the second time in three months. August 28, 2015 - FFA give Bakrie Group ultimatum to sort out financial situation or risk losing Roar. Midfielder Luke Brattan terminates contract with the club over outstanding superannuation payments. September 15, 2015 - Bakrie Group inject approximately $1 million into Roar, staving off FFA's threats of losing their licence. November 29, 2015 - Roar appoint David Pourre as CEO. December 31, 2015 - Roar meet FFA deadline to pay all outstanding superannuation and bonuses owed to players, avoiding an A-League points penalty. April 9, 2016 - Melbourne Victory hold Roar to a scoreless draw in the final round of the regular season to effectively deny Brisbane the A-League premiership. April 24, 2016 - Western Sydney Wanderers come from 3-0 down to eliminate Roar 5-4 after extra-time in the A-League semi-finals. May 9, 2016 - Pourre quits as Roar CEO but remains at the club as part of an advisory board. May 20, 2016 - Roar chairman Rahim Soekasah and director Demis Djamaoeddin miss appointment to inform FFA of owner Nirwan Bakrie's future plans after meeting with him in Indonesia. May 30, 2016 - Reports that Bakrie Group given until 5pm AEST to outline plans for the club or risk losing their A-League licence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hedaik Posted May 30, 2016 Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 Considering an A-League club would be the one of the worst investments possible, its no surprise we end up with so many dickhead owners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesla Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Lol, clearly the FFA are just trying to steal a licence from another owner so they can sell it for a few mil later on. They'll probably want like $10m for a Brisbane club. Ez money. But hedaik is right, it's hardly a good investment and the FFA constantly looking for an opportunity to take back a licence doesn't make it any better, so you're only going to end up with idiots or nutcases owning anything outside of Melbourne and Sydney.
