Been   reported   that  a   Saudi   club   has   offered   Ronaldo  200M   Euro  /   season .

I   wonder   how   the   APL' s   "proposition "   is   coming   along ...

Is Ronaldo coming to join his grandparents in a nursing home here?

No seriously if this does eventuate why not to one of the smaller clubs-Glory,Jets,AU or Roar.Even WU or MacArthur.My club,CCM,might be too small and we want young players to come to our club.

What franchise league is that?

I think we should have a narrow definition of eurosnob

someone who puts nothing into the local game, follows some big european club despite having no geographical connection (ie their parents werent born in loverpool) and trash talks the a league, npl and possibly the socceroos

no qualms with people who invest in the local game (at bare minimum eyeballs, or at least not trash talking it) and supporting their favorite overseas club

Maybe it's comprehension things with you.

I follow my local premier league team, I follow Manly United in the NPL, I follow SFC in the A-league, I follow Derby county in div 3 in England (one day they may get back up to the EPL), I follow Ronaldo in the EPL & now hopefully in the A-Leage & Real Madrid in the Champions league & la Liga. I follow Australia & Portugal in the World cups & any other intercontinental cups.
I follow football I don't earmark people for what they follow.

Well cut my legs and call me shorty, chasing Aussie Ron hey? Next they'll be going after Crocodile Lionel!

First   it   was   the   "Sugar  hit "  35.

Then   it   wasn' t .

Now  suddenly   it's   a   bid    for   Ronaldo  .  

You   can' t    make   this   up .. . 

Ron  Isuzu  Truck  al  do.

Playing in a franchise league what about Ronaldo McDonaldo? 

Tell you what Robbo, I will when you do.... Fair?

well I couldn't believe Pignata convinced ADP coming to our outpost @ 38yrs.
CR7 @ 37 and in good shape, the PR wagon pre WC is cooking in the colony, it would take Europe and the USA freezing over before he thought of this unique outpost let alone giving him a offer he couldn't refuse lol.....

Stop putting everyone into boxes mate, we all like football, just enjoy what you have & let others enjoy what they have.

He would then be called 'Our Aussie Ron!'

You forgot to put spaces in between the words paul 

Oh, so Aleague fans ARE the Eurosonobs now? How conflicted you all must be :)

No its Portugal actually..... VIVA Portugal WOOOOO HOOOOOO love it.

What crap you talking about?

Every A-League fan I meet in the stands talks about Haaland's goals, Ronoldo's sagas, Messi's brilliance & all have teams they follow in Europe.
Like I said you just make up crap to suit your agenda.

I love it when you lose your cool & start throwing around insults & rant that no one understands what you saying.
I love football & it comes in all forms, it's only people like you who differentiate football fans.
Enjoy your world cup, is it Poland or Serbia or was it Wales, I can't remember now. I just know it's not Greece or Australia.

You CAN buy this publicity and that's exactly what Danny Trashcan and Co are trying to do you senile old fool... hahahahah What crap am I talking. Are you not able to see the funny side of the fact that if it wasn't for so called "Eurosnobs" nobody in Australia would know who the fuck this primadonna even is???
You cant have one without the other no matter how much you want to try... Ronaldo is only "the most famous athlete" ( I think he is a flop personally) because of his enormous success in England and Spain so anyone that would even be insterested inw atching him live is a EUROSNOB - loud and proud... hahahahahahah 

You just make up crap.

The A-League & suddenly there is talk of the most famous athlete playing in the A-League (I know this will not happen) but you still find negativeness.
You can't buy this publicity.

He would fit right in with the NRL players... just another "alleged" rape story to add to the nightly news.

So just to be clear, the biggest "enemy" to Australian Football is the so called "Eurosnob" yet the APL wants Wella Woman to come down here and pick a team, any team? HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH this is hilarious, Hope it happens.

Hopefully buys Sage out & turns Glory to Perth Sporting Club :^) 

A Lot of begging!!!!

He can own a club 

Given he is 38 next year, I think we can assume he is out of his national side.... and would struggle to make one of the say top 30 sides.... 

What we can offer is safe harbour for his family, pleasant climate, relaxed lifestyle, fans not following him around....

Depends what he wants....

What   do   you   think   the    APL' s    "proposition "  to   lure   Ronaldo   here   consists   of  ?  (aside   from   visiting    his   grandparents)

I know it's a long shot but you don't know if you don't try.

It would be epic for the AL. Euro snobs would start going to AL games and then realise the AL has some quality to appreciate 

gee that would be handy for the a league. It needs a few bums on seats to watch some of the fantastic football being dished up this season
