ARE Gold Coast United looking at a former A League player to take over the coaching reigns? The Sniper is back again to unearth all the goss in Gold Coast football.
UNITED MAKE CHANGE
With NPL coach Sean Lane to leave at the end of the season, Gold Coast United are now looking for a replacement for next year. Rumour has it there is a former A-League player and prospective politician in their sights for the 2019 campaign. It seems like
they might also be looking for a new CEO to replace Troy Bingham, but what do I know?
’YOUTH’ SENIOR TEAMS
I love seeing comments from clubs stating that their teams are made up of primarily
players aged 16, 17 and 18. When you watch these teams, you will struggle to count past three players who fit that bracket. Time to wake up and just say that this year did not go as expected — not because of age but because of incompetence!
COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION
There are a lot of people that care about football here on the Coast, but how far are they willing to go to aid its development? It’s easy to write a post or comment on Facebook, but actually implementing something has been near non-existent from any of these people. Preferably, fix the issues within your own club and space before tackling the issues up top. This is where the problems start.
BULLETIN’S ROUND BALL ROUND UP PODCAST
WARNING ISSUED
Levi Hilton has decided to give up coaching Murwillumbah next season to return
to the playing field. Although he might not be an impact player in the Gold Coast Premier League, whoever signs him is also a good chance of snagging brother Matt Hilton. Phelo, are you ready to take that gamble? It might just be a 26-plus goal gamble after all!
FIELDS AREN’T KILLING FOOTBALL — WE ARE
It is easy for everyone to blame the fields for the lack of quality across all our
divisions and age groups. It is the easiest scapegoat for a lack of attention from
our clubs, coaches and officials on what have been deteriorating competitions for
years. Everyone is to blame for this, but nobody wants the blame.
