We've got the bottom three sides in the next three games. Lick your lips now.

Outrageous. Do we have anything to be worried about come FFA Cup?

Brisbane fans are so disappointing. A tough year and they abandon their team. Not sure who i want to see win this game, maybe a 3-3 draw

I don't personally know any Roar fans but I didn't read one fan on social media say that the sacking was deserved.

Great news!

Apparently Manny Muscat and Jaliens are going to miss games just in time to face AU!

Just proves my earlier post that Millishambles is the most over-rated defender in the league.

I heard Muscat got 2 and Milligan 3.

Yeah you're right - Muscat's was 2+1 and Milligan 3+2. Presumably the +1 and +2 are suspended.

Erm, how does that prove anything? At best, it proves he's a prick (even then that's a stretch) but it says nothing about his ability.

It speaks volumes about his ability. He knew he was beaten so he crashed his elbow into his opponent's face. It was worthy of MustKill at his worst.

Good players don't need to take their opposite number's eye out. Gary Lineker was never booked in his entire professional career, either domestically or internationally and became England's all time highest goal scorer. That was despite being hacked, kicked, pulled back, elbowed and even punched by opponents. The good players rise above it and don't resort to stupid and pointless violence.

On that logic, was Zidane a poor player?

No, but it meant that ZZ made some horrible mistakes of judgement. Similarly with Thierry Henry - I had the highest respect for him until he intentionally handballed against Ireland and thereby knocked them out of the WC qualifiers.

Regardless, Millishambles doesn't deserve to be spoken about in the same way as the really top defenders, because he's just not talented or cluey enough. When he gets run past, he starts lashing out.
