I’m not even mad that George’s agent is doing what he’s doing.
The guy tore up the league and the ACL.
He’s 31 and came from some backwater leagues so it’s not like he was racking in the cash before hand.
Of course the bloke will take the best offer presented, chances are he won’t get this opportunity again in his football career.
I’m pretty sure his family was still in Europe during the season so it’s not like his family was attached to the city or anything like that.
At the end of the day, if there was no salary cap I’m quiet certain the Vuck would’ve been able to sign him up mid season at a much better wage.
Anyway I’m trying to think of who we can sign as aussies moving forward, seems like our options are diminishing.
WTF is going on? All I see in this thread is players and members dropping the club like a hot potatoe.
If George wants to **** off, he can **** off. The club gave him an opportunity and this is how he shows his appreciation. Yes he helped us win a trophy, but now the campaigner thinks he's Christiano Ronaldo. **** him. The club will always be bigger than the individual. Same applies to Berisha and his departure disappointed me the most. But just like Real Madrid will live on after Ronaldo, Melbourne Victory will live on after that fat campaigner and Betisha.
And to those in here who want to drop the club too, hang your heads in shame. Who cares where you live, your club is your club. Two things in life we never exchange, our offsprings and our football club. I moved to Melbourne in 2000 yet I have never stopped following Port Adelaide. So what if I am 750kms away from Alberton? I used to drive to Adelaide every second week to see them play at that craphole in Westlakes, I was driving 8 hours to get there. Admittedley I stopped going once I got married and had kids, but I have never stopped supporting them. It was drummed into me as a kid in Adelaide to kick a Vic, but yet Melbourne Victory is the club I dediced to invest my emotion and money into when the league formed, and I'm glad I did. I don't live anywhere near Liverpool but it has always been my EPL team. No matter where you live and where you've come from, if you get on board a club, you stick with them and ride the journey, good and bad. Otherwise take up the arts or something, but this is football, it is rivalry based.
Yes MV has annoyed the crap out of me with its treatment of certain fans at times. It did nothing about losing the best ASG in the league, but it's had the FFA, stadium management, the media and the police on its back since the NT became the NT. It was damned if it did, damned if it didn't. It was trying to keep all of its stakeholders happy, an impossibility in the football industry. But the club has also given me a lot of joy too. 7 trophies and 4 championships in 12 years. They must be doing something right. We have hit a bit of a rock bottom with the exodus, ironically as the current champions, but football is cyclical, before you know it we will be star studded again, you just gotta ride the bumps and when your team gets back up again, that's what makes it all worthwhile.
Seriously, people changing their minds about which football club to follow as if they were looking at a menu in a restuarant is as plastic as it gets.
MV TID
That is all.
I think us winning the premiership has papered over a lot of issues within the club. I'm hearing that not all is well.

explain? are you referring to the off field stuff or on field? or both?
From my understanding when we undertook the review of the football department prior to signing Kev on again there was some issues that stemmed from that. Some of the younger guys also apparently were getting frustrated at what they felt was Kevin favouring the older players when they were clearly not performing. I'm not going to pretend I have some inside info from someone high in the club so can be taken for what it's worth.Winning champs when this is happening....watch out when there is some harmony in the group

Victory still linked to Keisuke Honda....would be a great get

I'm sure all of us remember the Muscat Out time this year when we were not only playing horrible but some of the tactics and subs (or lack of) were mind boggling.
