Seeing as there's already an Official trouble Thread The A-League’s silly season is in full swing, and while the mounting off-field issues at Western United and Brisbane Roar have taken centre stage, Adelaide United’s impending ownership change has come as a surprise to many. Long regarded as the most stable club in the league, United supporters were aghast when news broke to the media that local South Australian identity and convicted criminal Kalpi Prasad is nearing the end of negotiations to purchase the club.

The idea of promotion & relegation by introducing a 2nd Division A-League sounds good but it has become ridiculous how much a it costs to keep a club alive in the A-League. In reality relegation & promotion has really worked very well in England, Germany, Spain, Italy & maybe France. There is fanatical support in those countries of their football club no matter what division they are in. They love their club because it has been part of their life from the day they were born & have gone through good & bad times where every loss hurts.
Now in Australia we create teams overnight & expect fans from that region, city etc to fall in love with them. Clubs need time to grow a history, tradition etc.
Don't look at the WSW because that will not happen anywhere ever again.

Doesn't look great for Guillermo Amor. Where was the three game limit stated? -PB After the loss to City...

Three game limit has isn't true. Dom Rinaldo said that he thinks Amor will have 3 games on DFS during the week and people thought he meant that Amor has so little time. I will try and find a link so you can see what I mean.

Carrusca did start on the bench and only came on for Mells at about the 65th minute. Having said that he still didn't do much.. Edited by GrandPappyOfFunk: 13/11/2015 09:28:21 PM

Griffin is backing Amor in the media, but I wouldn't put it past him to stab him in the back at the end of the season despite the club's #TrustInAmor pre-season social media campaign and hire JVS when he gets sacked by City. Fuck it, put money on it.

I'm owning up to some egg on face here. I really really rated Adelaide pre season.
