And he isn’t happy! Read on to see what he has to say about Australian football and Australian supporters in general.
“To all that seem to care, yes that sums up most of you!
I could go on and rebuke all your comments towards me, but if I do so, I’m wasting my time and energy. You simply do not have the mental capacity to understand where I’m coming from, so why would someone like me bother with most of you?
I don’t, I won’t, and believe me, I don’t give a f— about your opinions! Comprehend that? Ha!
I left Oz in search of good football. No disrespect to the A-League. I think it’s marvelous, so many positives, too many for me to mention here, I have enjoyed being a part of it. I have to thank the FFA and various other people like Brendan Schwab at the PFA for making it viable for all of us!
But …
Until we get rid of the dinosaurs that are stuck in many of the clubs, you will never truly see Australia’s best talent. There are better players out there not being picked because they do not fit the “Anglo” stereotype needed to succeed in this country. Sorry to offend but its true.
The NSL was a better standard because there were more “Wogs” involved. Do not be offended by the names I’m using, they are after all, the labels you gave us!
So just accept the fact that we’ve accepted your monikers and are quite proud of where we came from. Most of you have no idea what you are? What you stand for? Or what you believe in?
Just follow your blood line, you will be more ashamed than any of us (Croats, Serbs, Greeks, Italians, Asians, Africans, Arabs etc).
You so easily ridicule us, with each generation of immigrants, we are to blame for all that is no good in this country.
The funny thing is your quick to eat a kebab, order a pizza, gobble down a souvlaki or admire our talented sons and daughters, such as Mark Viduka, Bernard Tomic, Jelena Dokic, Mark Phillipousis, Alan Didak, Peter Daicos, Nick Giannopoulos, Vince Colossimo, Eric Bana to name but a few!
You pick and choose when to like us! So for lack of better English words: “Jeebus”!
I’m sure you will all voice your opinion now, it’s your god given right, just as it is mine, to look at you and laugh! If only you knew…
Dare to be different.
PS: I love you Iskra Galic!
Lubes, Keeping It Real!”
