I don't expect too many changes by Foxe, he is only a caretaker manager not going to change everything.

Not the first time. Probably scouting for Ange or youth team.

It may have only been one game but the interim gaffer is already attracting groupies...

Hayden Foxe, Undefeated in the A League

[wswtragic]

The big question - will Milicic be onboard before the Derby? Regardless of result tonight, it's a logical juncture to break with the National team.

[tardotz]

It's a hard call to ask someone to just ship just before the possibility of going to the world cup.

In most cases it's an opportunity that may only come once.

[DamnedUnited]

Milicic it is then. 

[Jukes01]

As long as they don't give it to Ange. 

[DinoPresinger]

Os there a Popa Watch thread?

[btron3000]

Ange won't want it. It's a terrible move for him. It's a step back, he wants to give Australia a name on the football map which means moving to Europe, and there's a fair bit of bad blood around between him and the football community at the moment.

He's better off going overseas. If he succeeds, happy days. He can come back if and when he wants. If not, he either comes back with tail between legs or just packs it in.

Of course, there is family and that might affect his desire to relocate.

Did I remember correctly but did he already say that post Socceroo's he has ambitions of coaching abroad?

According to The World Game, Postecoglou is aggrieved at David Gallop  (who isn't) after the retrimand he got over players pay.

He also could be miffed that Popa beat him to Europe.

Going o/s, lets see Andrew Hoole, Mitch Nichols

[coachcarter]

I'm not so sure I want Gombau after seeing this photo.......  I don't think it would be good for team morale.  (Although I bet Goodwin plays for Australia soon).

[luisenrique]

Nah, they'll just keep picking Brad Smith instead.

Adam Peacock just mentioned the the rumour is that WSW will have finilised the coach before the Derby.

[wswtragic]

This makes a bit of sense, but clouds the issue for us:

"Milicic in strong contention to replace Postecoglou at Socceroos"

Why would they allocate someone unproven in the top job. 

[Paul01]

Anyone who sits with will be anointed i reckon

[tardotz]

If we do make it to the world cup, (and that's a big If) they would want someone who has world cup experience not somebody that has not even been a head coach.

[ManfredSchaefer]

So...where are all the Foxe-Friends now, especially after he brought on Santa and Fat Head to help out Biscuit?

Remember when folk on the PopaOut crusade wanted that kind of late in the game attacking football?

Finally Dougie delivers the goods and dead silence.

Have to say Haydo was out-thought by Okon...which is a scary thought.

He's not Robinson Crusoe there. Okon did the same thing in our last season game against the Mariners when Okon used a 4-1-4-1 formation when we lost 0-2 with Popa in charge.

[matty]

Yeah I don't think it's a disgrace that a career assistant gets out-coached by a head coach 

[theguyyouwishyouwere]

i also have no issue with Foxe bringing on multiple attacking players to win us the game either. at least he didn't leave it till the last minute like popa did.
