Yeah interesting signing. They must be sooo close to the cap... 

Maybe there's a loophole that says if you have McFlynn as your captain then his wages actually give you more space in the cap..

Press release lists 23 players, so that appears to complete the roster. 5 of those are outside the cap.

This is Sydney. The cap doesn't apply and never has.

Didn't realise that you can have more than 1 youth player's wages outside the cap.

There is an $150k allowance for Homegrown players outside the cap, this can be spread over 3 players. Minimum youth wage is 40k a season, so basically means your 3 u20's players can be basically excluded.

Yeah, not the youth 'marquee' it was pitched as originally.

sponsors ruin so many kits.  That away kit looks decent then you realise that is has a cartoon airplane on it.

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight

Sydney FC is happy to announce the signing of Serbian defender Nikola Petkovic to complete Head Coach Frank Farina’s playing squad for the Hyundai A-League 2013/14 season.

The FFA didn't buy the injury replacement argument (*cough*Salary Cap rort*cough*), so they signed him up for on a full season deal instead.

Ouch. Shame we couldn't keep him. I thought he looked quite useful.

Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

Rumours are that he did it filming a Fox Sports promo.

They have also lost Triantis for 4-5 months with osteitis pubis. Adding to Gameiro, Bojic, Antonis & Janjetovic on the injury list.

Ah, so he definitely wouldn't have suffered that injury had he re-signed with us.

To be fair he wouldn't have been in the fox sports promo had he been a phoenix player.

That's what I told him. He didn't find it amusing.

Sydney will no doubt sign some foreign CB 'under the cap' as i guess they finally realised their D is crap. Need a LB and CB tho for sure

Because they have a lot of cr*p squad filler players. Given Bosschaart has been injured for so long, they probably have a clause in his contract to get out of it cheaply. Otherwise they would use an injury replacement.

Now, I know the RBB can be pretty annoying at times, but this... this is just OFF from the Cove.

Some truth to that. But still stupid to say, because people will take it as a personal attack on fans - which it kind of is to an extent.
