Pelligra has already bought the Adelaide Giants (baseball) and the Adelaide Lightning (WNBL), and is believed to have held meetings this weekend in Melbourne and Adelaide seeking overseas investment in his multi-sport ownership project. Exciting times for Adelaide sport.

Horrible news for Josh Cavallo.@10NewsFirstAdl @10FootballAU understands he has ruptured his Achilles tendon.
Surgery later this week will keep him out for at least nine months.

Wishing him well!

Excited for this next chapter. I’m grateful and honoured for every time I’ve put on the United shirt and to Captain the club and represent the incredible people and fans associated with it. But I am hugely disappointed with how this was handled. pic.twitter.com/dYzsyeNoiI

The fee will be a little less than first reported, but still a landmark night ahead for Australian football.

As for the $$, I understand the number is healthy but not astronomical because Irankunda is in the last year of his contract.

Still, it’s a proper Aussie “Here We Go!” https://t.co/hVT4qXhRnm

Sounds like the Irankunda deal is being announced tonight.

That is a classy appointment. Hope they agree to play Phoenix at the Addington Temporary Stadium for a Sister-City Derby, while we are waiting for the real stadium to be completed.

Red Army AUFC

Finally, safe standing.

For many years, the Red Army have been advocating for safe standing to be installed at Hindmarsh. We believe this will help grow our active support and improve atmosphere on gamedays.

Thank you to past Red Army presidents, committee members, Adelaide United and Adelaide Venue Managment. With out all, this wouldn't have been possible.

We can't wait for October 26.

We hope to see you all there as we enter a new era together.

Stand up. Be loud. Be active.

One of the best stadiums in the league. Good size, smart looking, pristine playing surface

Rated basically equal 1st with the ROF by ALM players, for mix of pitch quality & atmosphere.

I guess with Hindmarsh being effectively single use (football only) they could put in handrails to make a almost purpose built, designated standing only area. Impossible obviously at all of the other multi use A League grounds.

They have it at both Commbank Stadium and Allianz Stadium in Sydney.

They put them in for WSW and Sydney FC matches (in The Cove and RBB bays) and replace them with regular seating for any other match - so definitely is possible elsewhere

Very cool. Though quite different to Sutts & Wootton.

Both the Spaniards are retiring from football fullstop, and Isaías is a bonafide Adelaide United, if not ALM legend.

10 seasons in South Australia, including a belter of a free kick in Adelaide's sole Grand Final win. He was MOTM in the GF. Crowd 50,000
