First red was a straight red for the keeper with about 30 to go. I was at the other end of the field waiting for my fucking steak at the time but it looked harsh from where I was standing... everyone said it looked pretty harsh. The keeper seemed to make the save and clip Vidaic as he made it. I was shocked when we got the penalty let alone the red card to go with it lol

The second red was with less than 10 to go... Vass copped a yellow and then said something to the ref and immediately copped the second.

LOL....no i dont think parra are playing the best football in the league......but i do think that comment is very funny......

i take it your a sydney united fan??? a draw against apia at home isnt so bad.......given the ref's usually help apias home record.......

there are a few problems over parra way......but thats football....

our first half was very good and IF we had taken our chances we would have made a game of it....the scoreline didnt reflect the game....once again thats football......a few injuries that forced some changes at half time and with a squad with minimal depth your options are limited.......the second half was painfull...really painfull, over 17 freekicks tp parra but no yellow cards to marconi.....geez he ref's are average.....

remember its only a game and there's always next week......

good old ref's eh.......in the 20's game between parra and marconi, there were 2 marconi players sent off....apparently. spoilt the rest of the game

Do you recall last season's relegation battle?

parramatta coach has resigned

Was most likely pushed due to poor results.

No T uNIT tell me about it

Hope Morelando doesnt take over

A experienced coach is needed to help Parrammatta

New coach will be who

mate at this rate, the game will definitely be off due to the weather.

speaking on injuries, we have a few of our own, most importantly sash tiroski and kosta lagoudakis.

sounds like both teams could do with the extra week to prepare.

anyway, im hoping the games do go ahead. i hate rescheduled fixtures.

Lagounakis has he played this year
Cant recall him playing since the trials
What injury has he got
Any news when he will be back

Tirovski same as him
When is he back

Told you at beggining on the year your
srikers werent good enough to score more than 5 goals
for the whole season

Monie hard worker but wont score you many goals

I believe that Rockdale arent help with the pitch they
play on heavy pitch and the pitch is terrible

Ive played on the pitch its always been in a terrible state

You guys dont play long balls and try to play the ball on the
ground the pitch doesnt help

More rain forecast today but rest of the week will be ok
Few showers

Our game tommorrow has been called off and the pitch is like
carpet

Looking forward to the Bonnyrigg ground with one of the better
pitches around

I want summer soccer in 10 away games

The following pitches where worse than some
park grounds


Lets see South Coast terrible
Sutherland good
Manly terrrible like normal
Parrammatta terrible
Apia was good for once
Bankstown was okay
Sydney United ok but could be better
Marconi a discrace
Rockdale a discrace
Bonnyrigg we will wait and see

How do u expect people to pay 15 dollars when the pitches
are terrible

What are everyones thoughts

You are not in Europe mate.

Clubs don't have millions to spend on the pitch.

I am sure they all do the best they can with the money at their disposal.

Grass doesn't unfortunately grow or recover well in winter.

Have a look at some of the NRL pitchs? Even ANZ Stadium is shocking.

Such is life - deal with it and stop whinging.

It frustrates me when every week coaches complain about the pitch, how about they all take pay cuts and the money can go towards relaying new grass every few weeks?????

Edited by ralerasic: 31/5/2011 05:41:17 PM

Seriously, Rockdale's pitch was horrible. Did you see the sand/dirt kick up every now and then when the balls was kicked etc.

have you tried that recipe heineken...????? something you whip up after uni for the girlfriend???.....LOL.

LOL..........

Didn't he resign after Round 1 or somthing?

Yeah mate he did.....but they didnt accept his resignation and he continued...

problems at parra arent on the pitch, they are in the boardroom, so now he has resigned or been pushed, whatever the case its not good for the players.....hopefully we can replace brian dene and move on and get a few wins......

Brian Dene parts company with Parramatta FC
31.05.11 20:43


Outgoing Parramatta FC coach Brian Dene
NSW Premier League side Parramatta FC were dealt with the news that Brian Dene has tendered his resignation as head coach of the first team squad effective immediately which was then accepted by the Parramatta FC board.
Brian indicated that due to increasing work commitments he had to resign his coaching position with Parramatta FC.

Brian went on to say that he wished Parramatta FC every success for the remainder of the season and thanked the club for the opportunity to lead Parramatta FC back into the NSW Premier League competition.

Brian’s assistant coach Pat Marando will take charge of the 1st grade squad as caretaker until the Parramatta FC board meets to decide who will coach the team for the remainder of the 2011 season.

The Parramatta FC board would like to thank Brian for his time spent with Parramatta FC and wish him well for all future endeavours.

Parramatta FC are currently accepting expressions of interest from suitably qualified coaches for the 1st Grade coaching position. CV’s to be emailed to Michael Briggs manager@granvillesoccer.com.au.

-Parramatta FC Press Release

How much is a coach at NSW Premier League level going to earn?

Really depends, ive heard that bomber is on $80k at bonnyrigg, and he pays for his assistant out of that.......

I've heard the same.

but bomber would be at the top, i have heard of coaches getting around the 15K mark....but im sure it changes from club to club.......

That is preposterous? Are they crazy!

Spending that type of cash on a part-time coaching team is bordering on studpity.

Clubs like that are the reason why player wages have gone crazy.

If they can afford it, then why not?

It is not about that mate.

All NSWPL clubs are broke or nearly broke - NONE are making money.

That is a fact.

Paying a coach that much naturally means all the other coaches expect better wages and inflates peoples expectations.

For example - BWE go out and sign as many players as Man City and inflate wage expectations throughout the whole competition.

When crowds are an average of a few hundred, how long do you think clubs can survive like this?

Also mate, your boys will win the Minor Premiership this year and collect 30k.

Not much cash, is it?

Will be lucky to page 2 weeks wages with that.

Do you see my point?

No TV revenue or any other income for the clubs OTHER than gate takings.

Even if a club gets 1000 people and say a maximum of 500 would be full paying which equals 7.5k, still not enough to pay an average clubs wages for 1 week.

Football NSW doesn't help but clubs like BWE going berserk and paying silly money does not help either.
