lol Cahill's sook about being booed might inadvertently get him a big fine and MCFC some difficult questions...

http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/sport/soccer/tim-cahill-faces-ffa-fine-for-using-mobile-phone-during-match-20161218-gtdokb.html posted:

Tim Cahill might have landed himself in hot water after revealing a possible breach of Football Federation Australia's strict anti-sports corruption protocols by using his mobile phone during a match.

The FFA confirmed they will launch an investigation into whether Cahill was sending text messages in the middle of Melbourne City's 1-1 draw with Sydney FC last week after the marquee said during an interview he had contacted his family during the half-time interval.

Speaking with Fox Sports on Friday night, Cahill ramped up his criticism of fans booing and verbally abusing players and said that he used his mobile phone to text family members during half-time at ANZ Stadium asking them to leave early due to the jeers and heckles of spectators.

"I think the hardest thing for me against Sydney FC, sitting on the bench for 80 minutes, was when your kids are sitting behind you and your nephew and niece," Cahill told Fox Sports. "I think that hit me harder personally because it was verbal abuse and direct. I went into half-time and texted my missus telling her to go home because I had a four-year-old sitting in the crowd."

If true, it could be deemed a breach of the strict regulations that prohibit players and coaches from using any communication devices upon entry of venues until after the end of games. Players are required to surrender their mobile phones to a club official before the start of games in order to prevent any possible influence of match fixing or spot betting.

The regulations were introduced at the start of the 2014-15 A-League season in response to match-fixing allegations in the Victorian state league.

The FFA confirmed they will launch an investigation into the claims and did not rule out disciplinary measures, including a $500 fine.

"We are aware and will be looking into it on Monday. We will be in touch with the player and the club to find out whether what was said did actually occur," an FFA spokesman said.

Fairfax Media contacted Melbourne City but the club had not received any communication from the FFA on Sunday.

Cahill has publicly criticised fans for booing him during the match against Sydney FC after being jeered when brought on as a late substitute. The veteran forward scored for Melbourne City in Saturday night's 2-1 derby defeat to Melbourne Victory. He suffered a minor injury during a goal celebration in which he ran into Victory's substitutes who were warming up on the sideline.

Aaaaaaaaand while I'm triple posting like a motherfucker, some of the bogan comments about all the nil all draws got me thinking about how many we've had this season.

We've had exactly one, in round eight, Adelaide vs Sydney. All the more reason to ban both clubs imo

It's kind of a weird signing, nixs forward options are some of best around and it'd be more obvious if it wasn't for the 6 or so spuds that make up the backline and guts of the side. Although this is probably gonna further exacerbate the annual gutting of the side come international rounds

I think what the nix have been missing is a proper center forward à la Berisha and Fornaroli. Krishna and Kosta are wide players, Gui, Roly & McGlinchey are midfielders but we haven't had anyone to chill out in the middle. We've been starting Watson who seem to do alright but there isn't any depth.

I think out back line is a bit better than last year, the Italian guy seem pretty good and one or two of the nsl guys have promise but Dura, Lia & Moss are getting past it. Smeltz hasn't been selected for the AWs for a while now but either way we are hosed when the window rolls around.

Hello everyone,

You might remember me from my posting a year or two ago as the lone A-League fan in the US, after the A-League rights ended on our Fox Sports channel there was no A-League in the US. Today I found out that ESPN got them and have been showing them on ESPN3 which is their internet channel. So without further ado here is the weekly Official A-League games of the week on ESPN3, right now it's Wellington Phoenix vs Newcastle Jet and later tonight at 3:50am EST/2:50am CST/12:50am PST it's Sydney FC taking on Adelaide United. It's great to be back guys, also what have I miss in the last 2 season?

The Mariners are still poo poo, just not completely poo poo.

Tim Cahil is playing for Melbourne City who are trying to buy a title and have one cup this season to their name.

However Sydney FC are the form team of the comp, who also have money but also have a pretty good coach in Arnold.

Daylight is third to the rest.
