I understand that an announcement may be made as soon as Monday.
That is apparently what the club is hopeful of.

I am of the understanding that Phil Stubbins is in the box seat.
I can't verify the validity of that tip but it comes from someone who has had quite a close relationship with the club in the past.

We love a Dutch coach in Aus. But maybe a little less after SA2010 :oops: .

Not sure about this appointment. He has a reasonable pedigre having coached FCTwente in the top teir of Dutch football.

Time will tell how he goes. If we finally beat bloody **** fc, he'll be aa hero in my eyes!! :lol:

Interesting choice. May have to import a couple of Dutch dudes now too. Maybe Robben and Schneider.....

Hopefully he decides to put more than 1 guy up front..

even though im not an AUFC fan, would be nice to watch some of their games and actually see a few shots on goal...

Apparently he likes a 4-3-3 formation which would be good.
