An update on matters here at Les Rosbifs. Transfer Gossip: In amongst all the megabucks deals for
Kaka, Gareth Barry and, um, Nathan Dyer, there have been plenty of rumours flying about too. One of
interest to Les Rosbifs is the possibility of Byron Webster, currently of FK Most in the Czech
Republic, moving back to the [.
Everyone's favourite time of the A-League season is here!
It's a time when grown men are likely to become morons, when heroes car quickly turn to villains
(and vice-versa), and when Prime Ministers heads are kissed and the nation laughs!
Yeah you know it, I'm talking bout the A-League finals series.
And so it begins. The Queensland Roar got the ball rolling last night with an all-important 2-0
away-from-home win against the Central Coast Mariners (report). Attention now turns to tonight's
affair in Adelaide. Melbourne have had the edge over Adelaide all year, with three wins from three.
That may, as Kevin Muscat suggests, give us a [.
Number 1 meets number 2 at the Telstra Dome tonight, as Adelaide United and the Melbourne Victory
go head to head to determine who takes the top of the ladder. A win for Adelaide, giving them a
4-point lead at the top of the table with a game in hand, would all but guarantee them the [...]
Danny 'The not so lemon' Allsopp, managed to give Melbourne a great advantage going into next weeks
major semi final and heap yet more misery on Aurelio Vidmar's men. Gees, who'd a thought that
Australia's most successful club team (Adelaide... all though some would argue Melbourne or
Sydney), would be struggling so much come the end of the season.
First of all, I hope that you and your friends and family have all remained safe this weekend. My
deepest sympathies go out to anyone who has lost a loved one in the bush fires. It didn't feel
quite right to start this blog post without pausing to acknowledge what's currently happening in
our fine [.
If statistics are anything to go by, things aren't looking good for Adelaide United. They haven't
beaten Melbourne since the Pre-Season Cup. Melbourne has won all of its last 6 games at home. And
Adelaide has a 2 goal deficit to make up for; meaning, in short, that it must score at least three
times [.
Sugar coat it any way you like, it's still not going to make Adelaide United play any better or
bring a trophy to South Australia... 5 games this season alone have proven that! Unfortunately I
won't be watching this match (I know, tell me about it!)... instead, I've got a dirty weekend*
planned in a remote corner of some dessert.
We're only an hour or so away from the first match of A-League ver. 5 and already it's promising to
be a cracker of a year!
Two new teams in Gold Coast United and North Queensland Fury, new and "unique" kit designs, a host
of new faces from local and abroad, ex-socceroos and marquee talent the likes of Robbie Fowler,
Jason Culina, Mile Sterjovski, Chris Coyne, Jacob Burns etc.
Perth Glory showed down away against traditional rival Adelaide United at Hindmarsh Stadium.
Perth...
They Think It's All Over... is well and truly pissed that the referee denied Wellington Phoenix a
win against Adelaide, but can draw some consolation from the performance of the Kiwi side.
Archie Thompson knows a thing or two... or 5 about finals football yet even though this isn't the
actual final, the Victory are pretty sure they have one foot in it already... and possibly one hand
on the prize too.
As it stands so far, Adelaide have only manged to score 2 goals in four matches against the Victory
this year and well they're currently down 2-0 on aggregate going into this all important decider,
so much like the ACL final, this match is not really about if they can win the game, it's about how
many goals they'll try not to concede!
Aurelio Vidmar, the coach of Adelaide United lost with cool following his teams 4-0 loss at the
hands of Melbourne Victory. In the post match interview he blamed politics for the loss and
although he didn't name any names, it was very clear he wasn't happy with what was going on behind
the scenes in [.
Another embarrassing thrashing of Adelaide United in a finals series, another coach's outburst. No
evil forces conspiring, just the city of Adelaide, a "piss-ant" according to Aurelio
Vidmar. After Vidmar's hissy-fit, it's hard to see how Adelaide are going to regroup for their
semi-final against the Queensland Roar, who put the Central Coast Mariners away 4-1 [.
If you thought Adelaide's season couldn't get any worse, you either need to watch the highlights
below or think again! They must have seriously pissed off some afterlife gods or some shit cause
the nightmare only seems to continue. It wasn't enough that they were punished 5-0 on aggregate
against Gamba Osaka in the ACL finals, they missed out on the Premiers plate to Melbourne by a
point, got drilled in the two legged major semi-final 6-0 and now their coach Aurelio Vidmar has
spilt the beans on in-fighting and.

Adelaide United will want to put the last fortnight behind them, most notably the 6-0 aggregate
romping they were given by Melbourne and especially the much publicised and scrutinised outbursts
by their coach Aurelio Vidmar.
Queensland Roar on the other hand are quietly sitting back like a vindictive teenage girl planning
on how to make her cheating ex-boyfriends year even more humiliating than it has been and stomping
on his nuts while he's down and out too.

Adelaide put some demons to rest on Saturday night as it beat Queensland Roar 1-0. Disappointing
for Queensland fans, and a surprising finish for many who wrote off Adelaide after the hiding in
Melbourne and Aurelio Vidmar's rant. Adelaide now get a chance for redemption. I thought I'd take
the occasion to compile a bunch of [.
Call me crazy, but I think the only thing that could undo the Melbourne Victory tomorrow night is
complacency. Melbourne faltered at times during season 4 of the A-League - especially against teams
propping up the ladder. For the latter half of the season, this became the pattern: solid wins
against top of the table sides, [.
On Saturday night, in front of a packed house of over 53,000 at the Dome formerly known as Telstra,
the Melbourne Victory became the first club in A-League history to win the Grand Final twice and to
win all three trophies in a single season (Pre-Season Cup, Premiers and Grand Final Champions). It
was far from [.
Robbie Fowler got off the mark on his A-League debut last weekend, although his North Queensland
Fury fell to a 3-2 home defeat against Sydney FC. Fowler, formerly of Liverpool and made club
captain, converted a penalty after an hour to level the scores at 2-2. However, former Portsmouth
man John Aloisi scored a winner [.
Adelaide v Gold Coast United, Friday night.
Should be a cracker and a great test for both teams.
I'm expecting a fast-paced game with the Gold Coast forced onto the back foot in front of the
Hindmarsh faithful.
But will Jason Culina, Shane Smeltz and Joel Porter pounce again.
The Victory are back at the top of the table, with their third win over Adelaide United this
season. Nice one. It was a top-of-the-table clash, with first place up for grabs, but I was still
surprised at crowd attendance. Over 27,000 on a Tuesday night is a great turn-out by any stretch of
the imagination, [.

I have to admit, I'm bloody surprised that Adelaide were able to pull this result out of their
arses, especially after the week they just had... and especially cause Fabian Barbiero drilled home
the winner. Queensland Roar were clearly the better team on the night dominating play, possession
and oportunities but failed miserbly every time to convert.

I know it's a little delayed and by now everybody knows that Melbourne Victory beat Adelaide United
1 – 0 in front of a near capacity 53, 273 fans at the Telstra Dome Etihad Stadium... but I
thought I'd post it anyway. It was a little disappointing to see that the red-cards dished out in
the match grabbed more headlines than the actual win itself, but never the less it was a win and
Melbourne successfully completed the Pre-season Cup, Premiership and Grand Final treble.
Since returning home from his Euro trip and well earned holiday in Bali Mitchell has been busy...

Round 4 of the Hyundai A-League wrapped up yesterday, with the round producing some mixed and
surprising results.
Adelaide United vs North Queensland Fury
Hindmarsh Stadium 10,733
3-3
10,733 people braved the rain, and the majority watched in horror as North Queensland went ahead
first after Robbie Fowler timed a run perfectly to score off a James Robinson wonder-cross, to the
delight of the captain.
A goal from Fabian Barbiero gave Adelaide a much needed win over Brisbane Roar.
