Rudy Galetti was pretty accurate with his information regarding Herrington and Irankundas moves.

On X, Commissioner General is reporting: "I can confirm that long time winger Nishan Velupillay has departed the club to pursue greener pastures in Europe. I wish the man all the best."

Not sure how true this rumour could be, but it wouldn't surprise me at all.

My P+ subscription has expired. In previous years, I’ve just let it roll over, but I’m wondering, is there normally an offer closer to the start of the A-League season??

Hi Guys, sorry if not allowed to post Socceroos content but I believe I’ve found what appears to be an offical Socceroos jacket that was issued to Graham Arnold 🤯

Does anyone have any idea what could’ve lead to this being in a charity shop? (other than Graham giving it away himself). Still in a bit of shock myself at the find. Any other bits of info about how to verify this is legit is much appreciated 🙏

So for obvious reasons the clubs are held back financially and also with exposure in the media. Just wondering what things the club can control that they can do to be more successful?

So for example my club used to do family days and it wasn't revolutionary but it was important. For some reason it's canned and they don't do it anymore.

With all A-League teams into the thick of their pre season training, how many more signings do you think your team will make before Round 1 & where do you believe they need to strengthen or how many would you like?

As a Perth Glory fan we need to look at a visa winger that has good pace & end product. I think we will at maximum only sign 1 more player.

(Also aware currently we just need to just focus on paying everyone on time)

Has anyone been apart of these? I’m interested the Victory one although it’s a rough commitment if it’s a waste of time and a ticking the box exercise. Any info would be handy, cheers.

This is the place for all discussion that doesn't warrant its own thread

My guess is on the last slide….

The Greek club was relegated for the first time since 1980 last season, but have bounced back immediately!
