Thats  A FKN DISGRACE. 

Anther unproven and inexperienced senior coach is NOT what we need 

Well until we know who it is, we can't say he is inexperienced. He may well have managed in Europe. Although it is preferable if they know the league they are going to, it has been shown with Adelaide it is not imperative to hire someone who has A League experience.

What is stupid is keeping JVS on for next season. Hopefully he won't be making the match day decisions.

wonder if cfg would try move lampard to us, (don't think we'd want it) clearly hasn't worked out for him there and got booed when he came on today (finally)

With CFG opinion of FFA in its current state I highly doubt he'd ever come here as a marquee. Only chance he could come is as a guest player.

Personally I think the league has outgrown the whole marquee concept.  It devalues the other players and can be a like a 'poisoned apple' when you get a 'Koren" type player who fails dismally.  Also, as soon as a player has a stand-out season (like Bruno), then the only way to keep them is to make them marquee, which the FFA doesn't actually support ... i.e. Bruno is not good enough for the FFA marquee handout.

I keep saying the answer is to exclude foreign players from the salary cap.  Also allow for one senior and one youth Aussie player outside of the cap as well.
