Megabonus, I cant promise you, but what I can tell you that a very experienced and technical person is now involved in the program and is a major step forward. He has the expertise, knowledge, understanding and communication to deal with our future young players. So it's fantastic to see the FFSA gi...

Let me be quite clear in this matter once and for all. RA is not the right person for the job. He has lost respect from current and ex players as well as local clubs. If you believe that a coach can humiliate and verbally abuse players to get the best out them, then you are in need of communication ...

Hi Boutsi,

It looks like you don't read up on previous comments. May be if you look back you might see a couple of names.

I wish I was a disgruntled parent but as I have no child and luckily because I would not have her involved in that environment.

Hi Boutsi, Firstly, this is about women's football in SA. I am not interested in the men's league. The mens A league and so on are established and rewarded with highly paid contracts. Secondly, the Mens A league is a business so winning is at all cost. So yes they will select the best players from a...

NTC girls did play very well. The front 3 combined really well, and there movement off the ball was exceptional. I am very glad and sincere the team did very well. It is what we would like to see. However, it does not mean these players will get the opportunity to play for the lady reds under RA in...

Hi pvfc I understood exactly what you were saying. It was clear. My question now is who is actually in charge of the NTC while RA is away. Apparently the assistant coach is to busy with coaching his boys team that he does not have time for the womens NTC. I hope the FFSA are aware of this as the NTC...

Hi Paul, In relation to your comment, "Is the women's prem league strong enough to produce 20+ players of national league quality?" Yes there are current players that are strong enough to play. One classical example is Isabella Scalzi who has been a great and consistent defender in the pr...

Absolutely we are not men and we will not be able to compete at their level. Therefore we should be treated as women and coached to the best of our ability. :lol: And then complain later that you're not treated equally. I see where Sportsbird is coming from on this one Mers. There's no one approach...

Hi sportsbird I have also heard that players are are wanting to leave because they are unhappy in the environemnt. Some are staying only because they dont want to miss the boat. Its unfortunate. bambam, I agree with you, whilst RA is head coach, these players will not be given the opportunity becau...

Im sorry otto62
I dont need to talk to them in leaving. There leaving on there own accord.

Rumour has it another two players are considering leaving, not happy with current situation.
Unable to say who until it is confirmed.

Monique Ianella leaving lady reds to Melbourne Victory.
The question now is whos next.
Should be RA.

http://m.adelaidenow.com.au/sport/football/lady-reds-saved-from-extinction-at-the-11th-hour/story-fnii0g1d-1227249621561 Great to see the lady reds continuing with the help of AU for the future of women's football. Another setback for the lady reds, Jenna McCormack leaving the lady reds. It is belie...

It's great to see Adelaide United help out the Lady reds from distinction. The rumour has it that a particular person involved with the lady reds refused a pay cut which could have saved them earlier. There are three Coaches in the premier league who have great football credentials who are willing t...

Hi rouojundtp I agree with you whole heartedly and I don't disagree with you. Just not sure what point you are trying to make. The question raised previously is that RA should resign because he is not fulfilling is job description with the FFSA, Lady reds and NTC. Hope the FFSA has stopped or reduce...

Hey socca
Does it matter how money is given. The fact is they are.
The real and important issue here is that RA should resign and the FFSA should appoint a new head coach as previously discussed for the future of womens football.
RA is only interested now in the matildas and only the matildas.

With all due respect to you paul merson, It means AU will increase attendance which means increase in revenue. More bums on seats. The FFA had scheduled approx. W league games prior to the A League in previous seasons and was been proven to be successful. They found the attendances increased as with...

Hopefully, these issues will improve immensely once the Lady Reds are under the umbrella of Adelaide United. The FFA are in the process of incorporating all W League Clubs in Australia to be in partnership with the Men's A league by 2017. This is a significant move forward and a fantastic idea for ...

Sorry Hooch, regardless what he has achieved as a player , what record has he achieved with the lady reds other than going backwards and causing several players and ex players to have no respect for him as a coach as well as his deputies. 2013/2014 Pos Team Pld W D L GF GA GD Pts 1 Canberra United 1...

The fact is the players are training without a head coach. So much for the development squad. Again SA going backwards. Some players have elected to withdraw from development squad and train with their respective clubs as they can see they are not going anywhere. These players will wait until the se...

Has anyone seen Ross A? His players in SA haven't. If you have, please let him know he still has a development squad back in SA are training in his absence. Maybe Ross A has decided that being the best coach in Australia is more important than developing the players in SA. Maybe it's not a bad thing...

Hey socca,
I forgot
No comments on the table.
Amazing how facts don't lie.

We must applaud RA for his appointment and the fantastic job he has done with the lady reds in 2014/2015 compared to 2013/2014 as seen in the table below. All coaches should follow RA leadership and success and one day you could be an assistant to the Matildas Coach just by going down the ladder. 20...

Mr boutsi13 Firstly, sorry if you misunderstood what I meant, I wasn't referring to RA's big shoes that need filling. Secondly, the players will be really, really, really ecstatic that RA is remaining. In conclusion, your announcement that RA will stay next year and if this is true, it will be the b...

Mr boutsi13 you can take it either way, as a question or a statement. However, if you believe in your own mind that all current players are happy with the coach and have a lot of respect for him, then how can we argue with you. How can I also argue that the coach has been proffessional when he has d...

Hi Mackem Lad,
I'm glad that we have you on this forum as there is no need to use spell check in future as we have you.
Thanks for the free innovative service.

Hi coyr98,
Unfortunately your comments are incorrect.
Maybe you should read between the lines a bit harder and you may get the right answer.
Hint: Players and past players are absolutely happy with the environment they are in and they way they are being coached, or are they?????????????
