I wonder if he'll find the culture as toxic?

I think this whole farce is suitable for investigation by ICAC or a Royal Commission.

This is a National Team supported by Federal Funding and MUST be Accountable for how it operates.

Bonita M was punished for doing the right thing.
And we keep getting told it's the wogs etc who are the corrupt ones.

And get the Canberra leso mafia interogated in the process.

The Matildas were nowhere near as fluent as they were under Stajic last night against NZ - the media was tipping a whitewash before the game but it was more of a finger painting in reality.

Sam Kerr was way below her best and was subbed in the second half, along with quite a few other 'stars'.

This Heather Reid needs to resign. Totally incompetent. Almost destroyed Stajics career


Football Federation Australia (FFA) board director Heather Reid has publicly apologised for implying Alen Stajcic was sacked as Matildas coach for misconduct.
In a stunning twist in the ongoing saga, FFA and Reid on Friday issued statements regarding the controversial sacking.
Reid, in a statement, apologised for privately suggesting to media and others that “if the whole truth could be told, Stajcic would never work again in women’s football”.
Stajcic’s contract was terminated by the governing body on January 19 in a move that rocked the Australian football community, and saw speculation regarding his potential wrongdoing fill the media.
“FFA by this statement wishes to make clear that Alen Stajcic’s contract was not terminated on the basis that he had breached his contract or had engaged in any misconduct,” the FFA statement read.
Any inference that has been drawn about these being reasons for Alen’s contract termination is wrong. Alen’s contract was terminated by FFA exercising its contractual right of termination by making a pre-agreed payment in lieu of notice. FFA’s decision to do this was reached simply because its Board formed the view, following a process undertaken by management that the Matildas would benefit from a new coach for the FIFA World Cup in France.
“FFA acknowledges that some of the speculation about the termination of Alen’s contract was caused by statements made by one of its directors, Heather Reid.”
Reid meanwhile issued her own statement to ‘apologise unreservedly for the damage, distress and hurt’ caused to Stajcic.
She acknowledged that: “my conduct in making public and private statements may have caused serious damage to Mr Stajcic’s reputation, both in Australia and internationally.”

The women’s football pioneer who was appointed to the board in November also withdrew her statements ‘entirely and unconditionally’ and stated that she regrets the comments. Reid also apologised ‘for pain and suffering… caused to Mr Stajcic’s wife and young children.’



FULL REID STATEMENT:
I apologise unreservedly for the damage, distress and hurt that I have caused to Alen Stajcic as a professional football coach and long-time servant to, and advocate for, Australian and women’s football. I understand that my conduct in making public and private statements may have caused serious damage to Mr Stajcic’s reputation, both in Australia and internationally.
On 22 January 2019 The Sydney Morning Herald published a story about the termination of Mr Stajcic’s contract by Football Federation Australia (FFA), in which I was quoted as saying that if people knew the actual facts about Mr Stajcic’s behaviour ‘they would be shocked.’
I also, at around this time, sent personal communications to a number of people including various members of the media, in which I suggested that, if the whole truth could be told, Mr Stajcic would never work again in women’s football. I understand also that these communications ended up in the hands of other journalists who have used my words to compound the speculation and innuendo as to the reason why Mr Stajcic’s employment was terminated.
I withdraw my statements entirely and unconditionally. Mr Stajcic’s contract was terminated by FFA, by a decision of the FFA Board, of which I am a member. FFA elected to terminate Mr Stajcic’s employment contract by it making a payment in lieu of notice. Mr Stajcic’s contract was not terminated by FFA for breach of contract by Mr Stajcic, or because of any misconduct on Mr Stajcic’s part. I accept that I was wrong to imply otherwise.
I regret making these statements. I apologise also for pain and suffering that I have caused to Mr Stajcic’s wife and two young children.

A bit late to apologise now, the leader of the Lesbian Mafia got her way by making her statements and an apology should be followed by her axing. :evil:

The Matildas appear to be struggling under Milicic, just like every other national team he's been involved with, losing 3 - 0 to Netherlands last night and it could have been a lot more.

They had a few chances but failed to take them and will have improve massively if they are to even make it past the group stages in France.

Milicic has tried to make them a more defensive team who move the ball around and keep possession, which is almost the opposite of the style Stajic had them playing and it does not suit the players he's got.

Be prepared for a quick exit unless he restores the Stagic style of play.

Once again the ruling body of Australian Football has managed to stuff things up just as something great became possible and appears to snatched Defeat from the Jaws of Victory, making the game the laughing stock of the AFL & NRL supporters.

The game needs another Federal government enquiry to sort out why this continues to happen and ensure that those with any connection to the sacking of Stajic are banned from any future involvement in the game and be stripped of any honours they have been awarded.

Congratulations to the Matildas for getting themselves out of a deep hole (for now) but I notice their Milicic enforced tactics changed after the half-time break, as they came out fired up and started to look more like the team Stajic put together.

I doubt it came from Milicic but I feel it more likely came from the women themselves who decided to go and play their game and win.

Not overrated, the fact they defeated the US just last year in the Tournament of Nations with head coach Stajcic shows that this team deserved more.
FFA should be held accountable
