perthglory.com.auThis season truly is a race to the bottom between Perth and Brisbane
85
Every time I realise how bad Brisbane is run, I look at Perth and realise that we aren't alone.
49
Ye but imagine you've been going through it 3 times longer and the controversial things that happen are almost unheard of in football anywhere
13
We're honestly just a worldwide search or 2 behind you at this point.
5
The worldwide search thing pisses me off. It's not even top 50 embarrassing Glory moments
2
Same. hugs
Although I'm hoping you smash the Vic tomorrow!
11
Iâm laughing but very uncomfortable looking at the table
16
Sounds like Perth has a discipline problem..
CCM Fans - "Maybe that's why we beat em in football nearly half the time huh"
16
I was saying Boo-urns
4
That is top shelf.
2
Amazing
2
Surely off to Western United given they have struggled massively without Prijovic.
Personally think itâll be a great shame for a club to sign him given his age and drama to put him ahead of an Aussie youngster.
44
depending on how much he wants I think most teams will offer him something considering he doesnât take a visa spot
28
Unless youâre in the window for a title and need a striker, I donât see why youâd bother. Let someone from India pick him up.
11
Perth Glory are a pub run team in a nation comp, like Fitzroy before the merger.
40
Yet we're above you on the ladder after you've taken Ikonomidis, Brimmer & Daggers off us...
Not being able to play at HBF, one of the better stadiums in the league, due to delays in developments, doesn't help our image.
We'll be fine.
29
Also, Spiranovic, Geria and of course Popa himself.
Vic are just a team of Perth Glory rejects.
13
Not sure Geria counts lol.

I said it in here the other day that the Glory have never been the same since Nick Tana sold the club.
Perth were the absolute benchmark under his ownership.
4
I mean since he sold in the club in 2006 we've made plenty of finals appearances, a couple of grand finals and a couple of FFA cup finals.
Sure we fell short in all of them but pre-covid we were a pretty well run club with exciting football, fans & players.
Honestly these comments from Sydney fc & Victory supporters talking down about us is a bit funny. Sure we're in a shit position currently but covid hit our club wayyy harder than the clubs in the eastern states.
17
Melbourne was one of the most locked down cities in the world.
-3
That's why I specified "clubs". How hard is it to read words?
6
A touch oversensitive aren't we? Who's talking Perth down? Just stating the bleeding obvious that the Glory are nowhere near the powerhouse they were in the NSL era.
As far as my own club is concerned I'm still pissed off with the way things are at the club at present.
The whole Ninkovic saga pissed me right off.
The bloke was a legend and a hero to most of us and seeing him in the colours of our arch rivals deeply hurts.
If I'm honest that hurts me a hell of a lot more than it did when Alan Smith left Leeds for Man United in 2004.
The whole Ninkovic affair felt like it would seeing the ex gf who you once thought of as the absolute love of your life in the arms of your worst enemy.
-4â
Just stating the bleeding obvious that the Glory are nowhere near the powerhouse they were in the NSL era.
Yea, but that was so long ago it's bizzare we still get compared to then, instead of previous multiple successful stints since then when the club were well run and played good football.
Fair enough I did get a bit over protective there. I guess I just don't like seeing the club get kicked when we're down.
Yeah Ninkovic saga must of sucked for you guys. We went through similar pain with Castro. Guy easily could have gone another season and got the send off he deserved yet we went with Garcias lads...
13
Glory supporter since day dot here. Weâre an utter clusterfuck. An absolute shambles of monumental proportions. Iâll stick with them because thatâs what you do as a true supporter, but theyâve been bollocks since the A League started.
2
Itâs a bit like your ex only went to your worst enemy after she put on a few pounds and wasnât that hot anymore⌠you can just look your enemy in the eyes and say âyou may be fucking her now, but I was fucking her when she was the hottest chick aroundâ
-1
Sage must be a smart man as you generally don't get rich unless you are.
But the club is probably the worst run in the league. Has been for a long time. Such a decline from the old NSL days.
0â
What's Clive Palmer's excuse then? That bloke is loaded and he doesn't have much between the ears.
Agreed on your other points though.
14
Claiming it's been all doom & gloom like you are since the NSL days is a bit ridiculous. We've got a premiers plate, made 2 GF's and 2 FFA cup finals. (Yes, I know, we lost them all đ˘)
But from 2006-2019 we had some greats seasons, great memories & great times as a club. Some shit/unlucky/cursed times too, but hey that's the a-league!

Coughs in Indonesian

Zadâs Lads only

I always told him not to take any shit
14
Hah! Name checks out.
5
Fuck you Zads dad
3
You must be JAYFC!
4
Reaction to this will be extremely calm and rational I'm sure
24
Inevitable after Sage's comment this morning saying "look for players with character and ability. But remember, character comes first." Obviously a dig at Bruno and no player is going to stay when the owner calls them out publicly.
In terms of on the pitch, we did look a lot better on the weekend without him but I do wonder how much we will miss him and his ability to get us out of trouble by drawing fouls.
24
Sage has a long history of potshots at departing players
18
They need to turn this into an Aleague All Access ep
21
Bruno Fornaroli signs for Melbourne Victory
16
I do not like this
9
Same

Horrible decision by the club, which sadly seems to be common these days.
10
What alternative do they have, pay the wages of a player who won't play?
2
As if you'd want a proven A-League goalscorer in your team.
Serious though, I still think he was hacked.
7
What's the reason?
I'm out of the loop
7
Full details unclear. Refused to play after being named on the bench, said he was fit on Instagram, seems like the club didn't want to renew his contract for the same money and he doesn't fit into their plans.
17
Tony Sage is such a wannabe
5
come to Adelaide
4
There's a flight from Perth to Adelaide this weekend he could catch
12
Do the Reds have the cap space to afford him? The only clubs I could see him at is one of the three Melbourne clubs.

1
For cheap cheap, he and Ibusuki can fight to who will be on the sideline that week
5
No thanks
4
Take him. The guys cooked, and we looked better without him on the weekend.
Love him but it is what it is.
-1
Have you been a Glory fan for 5 minutes? How the fuck can you see yet another absolute cluster fuck of a situation under Sage and blame the latest person or thing at the centre of it?
5
Probably the mot predictable news coming into this weekends fixtures.
4
Sadly I donât think his going to be remembered as the legend he was
4
Three good years in Perth but in three pretty poor teams, long term I don't think he'll be up there at legend status.
11
Not in the same sense Harnwell/Smeltz/Keogh were as strikers for sure.
7
Not a surprise after Sage ran to the media yet again to take a potshot at an unhappy Glory player. Can't wait to hear how this is everyone else's fault yet again.
4
Fuck this club.
3â
Can he sign with a new A League side straight away?
3
I think he's technically a free agent now (ie. no transfers necessary), so I'd say yes.
12
Surely the window is now closed?
2
Only applies to transfers between clubs.
10
Nah, not if you werent a free agent at the time of the window closing (which he wasnt).
If Bruno Fornaroli is eligible to move clubs now then the concept of a transfer window clearly doesnt exist at all in Australia.
2
I think he is just injured đ
Hacked and injured? Poor bloke
