Are we surprised? Perth admit they may lose trio

A seat at the A-League 13 November @ 04:48 PM EST
Mile Sterjovski, Jacob Burns and Chris Coyne may temporarily leave Perth in January to 'prepare' or desperately try to convince Pim to give them back a spot.
Not great news for Perth fans and perhaps why MItchell thinks top 6 is so great. Click to continue reading...

Interlull - Glory contracts, Todd and the WC semi finals

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 11 November @ 11:08 AM EST
So we are still midway through the interlull, but there is still a quite a bit of Perth Glory news about town.
But before we get to that, just a bit of an update of what the Glory are up to this week.
First of all, FP just got word that the coach Dave Mitchell will be holding a press conference on Friday as part of his "midseason review". Click to continue reading...

Perth draw with Wellington and Mitchell's words

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 08 November @ 07:14 PM EST
SO Wellington Phoenix haven't lost at home in 13 games, they have won their last two games there with nine goals scored - so after Perth Glory came away with a draw yesterday, is that a good result?
Of course it is.
It was the sort of match where a couple of moments of brilliance were need to notch a goal on the board. Click to continue reading...

Burns, Petkovic, Gold Coast United in tatters and one dedicated Victory fan

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 27 October @ 11:00 AM EST
MORNING all, hopefully this blog finds you well on 'hump-day'.
Just a quick note on yesterday's post on the void of Perth Glory news. Apparently, Monday was a rest and recovery day for the players - which is understandable, considering they have been on a two-week road trip of Queensland.
So yesterday there was a bit of news coming out the Glory camp, but the first official media gathering for this week, will be a presser just before training today. Click to continue reading...

Mitchell on Neville, Burns on not seizing the top spot, and the gaffer on Wayne

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 21 October @ 10:09 PM EST
SO Perth Glory are about a day away from taking on Fowler's Fury. With the jam-packed nature of the league, it's a game they really need to win - just to keep them up there.
FP knows it's very premature, but just to prove a point this is what the first week of the finals would look like if the regular season had already ended. Click to continue reading...

Glory disharmony, Howarth, Sterjovski could return and Shoddy state of refereeing

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 20 October @ 10:29 PM EST
SO Perth Glory take on North Queensland Fury this weekend - is it FP or didn't we just play them a few weeks ago?
Seriously the fixtures are extremely screwed up and FP doesn't buy the crap about "venue availability" which is seriously just . . . crap.
Anyway onto the latest Glory news and views. Click to continue reading...

Miron wants to entertain, Burns' presser and 4 Blokes on 4 Chairs

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 14 October @ 01:04 PM EST
IT's a pretty quiet Thursday in terms of Perth Glory news.
The club decided, wisely, not to challenge Andy Todd's suspension, but since then it's been a bit of a lull.
However, there's a bit going on here and there, so let's get into it:
- SO most people who follow football regularly will already know this - Gold Coast United Miron Bleiberg is a media man. Click to continue reading...

Sage willing to let Socceroo hopefuls leave before finals and Todd gets suspended

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 12 October @ 07:32 AM EST
SOME very interesting news from The West Australian in today's paper - Tony 'James Bond' Sage has revealed that the three Socceroo hopefulls, Chris Coyne, Jacob Burns and Mile Sterjovski, would be let go on loan BEFORE the A-League finals if it helps them get a ticket to the World Cup.
Now this isn't actually new, we heard about this when the trio we snapped up on free transfers back in August. Click to continue reading...

Mitchell on LTF, Chris Coyne and the Glory's great crowd

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 04 October @ 09:35 PM EST
BEFORE we get into today's juicy blog, should give a mention to the guys at Glory Football Tees and the new shirt available from their site (left).
The joke obviously refers to the antics of Chris Coyne against Brisbane a couple of weeks ago.
These guys aren't guys who live in China, these are Perth Glory fans (the type of guys who don't know what a bandwagon looks like) who use the profits for the creation of Glory banners and the Perth Glory fanzine - which always gives FP a bit of a laugh. Click to continue reading...

Perth 1 v Nth Qld 1: Instant Karma

A seat at the A-League 03 October @ 04:35 AM EST
Ha. Who would have thought it would come so quickly? And by former Roar player Chris Grossman! Perth player Chris Coyne showed it is OK to hit the keeper with the ball. So North Queensland got their goal.
And Jacob Burns got his 5th yellow suspension. Pity Talay got a 2 yellow red for diving. Click to continue reading...

Pellegrino's live chat, Glory boys left out of the Socceroos, Mitch on Burns and Fury boss

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 30 September @ 09:17 PM EST
SO finally we have some juicy news to get our collective teeth into. But firstly, FP should mention that Perth Glory winger Adriano Pellegrino will be doing a live chat today from 1.30pm (WST) on the West Online.
Now this sounds pretty cool, but it'll be interesting to see how it works, and more importantly, whether there is a good response from the fans – but knowing the Perth Glory faithful, FP is sure that shouldn't be a problem. Click to continue reading...

Faith in the system, Mitch's words and a question of tactics

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 28 September @ 11:21 PM EST
AFTERNOON all. FP's just come home from a good old fashioned walloping in badminton (worryingly no one there was under 45). Hopefully this isn't some mystic sign of his future.
We can only hope.
Enough of my dodgy badminton skills - onto Perth Glory news for today.
For those of you who aren't privy to FP's Facebook page, Perth Glory captain Jacob Burns 'escaped' sanction for that 'headbutt' on Friday. Click to continue reading...

Kids get to see Fowler for free, Mitch's Socceroo issue and Bobby on LTF

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 27 September @ 11:49 PM EST
HOPEFULLY this blog finds you all enjoying the public holiday. The sun is somewhat visible through the clouds, but it is still a pleasant day.
Moreover, there are only six days left until Perth Glory take on North Queensland and Robbie Fowler.
There's been no talk of injury to the former Liverpool striker, so FP expects him to make the trip to Perth. Click to continue reading...

Jets game, Mitch's post-game words, Burns' 'headbutt' and Fowler

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 26 September @ 10:11 PM EST
IT'S all a bit confusing. On one hand Perth Glory, after two successive away wins, are on top of the ladder - something which has probably never happen in the four years of the A-League. On the other hand the manner which those victories came were unpleasant.
No wonder some Glory fans are happy, while some are still discontented. Click to continue reading...

Fitness claim disputed, Mitchell's the ref, Tando and 'no-show' from the Glory

Home - Football Perth Blog - Perth Glory News 16 September @ 12:30 AM EST
SO it's Wednesday, and hopefully by now that bitter taste in your mouth has dissipated somewhat.
The sun is out, and it's starting to look and feel like spring again. Could it last? Apparently not.
According to the boffins over at the Bureau of Meteorology, this is the wettest September since 1915, and more bad weather is on the way. Click to continue reading...

Mariners game reaction, Mitch's words, Gold Coast hype and Burns

Morning y'all. Hopefully this finds you well. As some may have noticed, FP has deliberately stayed away from posting for a couple of days after that tragic loss to the Central Coast Mariners on Friday.
He could have throw something, choked someone or kicked anything after that game. Click to continue reading...

Perth going for the hat-trick, Inglourious Glory, Reggae time and the Sleeping Giant

by Usman Azad, Football Perth Editor
Here's a bit of a fun fact for Perth Glory fans.
Apparently Perth has never won three games in a row since the Glory opened it's eyes in the A-League.
Why this is could be anything from the ridiculous scheduling from the FFA, the mismanagement of the team under certain regimes and coaches, or the power of some voodoo witch doctor. Click to continue reading...

WELL, all in all, it was mixed weekend for FP. Arsenal self-destructed against Man United, but Miron's mob Gold Coast United were finally brought back to earth with a 1-0 defeat to Newcastle.
And due to a couple more results in the A-League, the Glory climb to fourth position on the ladder after their win over Melbourne - though Perth fans shouldn't be breaking out the bubbly just yet - there's still 23 rounds to go, plenty of time before the ladder really matter.

Who's next to leave the A-League?

Football in the Capital 10 August @ 03:09 AM EST
Aussie Agents up to their neck in it?
You can almost smell the greed of the Aussie Agent. An Agent who seals the deal for the likes of Brendan Santalab to get a gig in the A-League only to work his socks off to move him and any of his other players as quickly as possible to North Asia, the Middle East or even Europe.

Adelaide 1 v Perth 0

A seat at the A-League 07 August @ 08:03 AM EST
It was the right result. Adelaide dominated the first half. Clearly Adelaide missed out on a straight forward penalty in the first 2 minutes as Jacob Burns had his first touch on an Adelaide leg entering the penalty box from the right. Later, justice was made when Chris Coyne pushed/pulled down Robbie Cornthwaite for a linesperson's decision. Click to continue reading...

A-League leads to World Cup

Football in the Capital 13 July @ 07:28 PM EST
Too young, too quick, too slow, too fragile, whatever the reason, whatever your code I'm sure you've heard the criticism of the A-League.
But with the Socceroos heading to the FIFA 2010 World Cup few fans would expect to see the squad without a pack of A-League players.
Yes that's right the A-League will be sending a host of players to the World Cup,to one if not the greatest stage in World Sport. Click to continue reading...
