I
There already is the Johnny Warren medal though, calling the FFA Cup after Les Murray seems perfect to me.
There are plenty of past famous Aussie footballers we can attach the Cup name too before Les imo if we want to connect the competition with the community and past history of the game then surely we can come up with a past footballer, Socceroo etc..
Charlie Yankos, Paul Wade, John Kosmina, Alex Tobin, Mark Viduka, Harry Kewell, Craig Johnston even (I know he never player for the Socceroos but he had a Brilliant career in England) that's just to name a few, plenty others..
I like the sound of 'The Charlie Yankos Cup' rolls off the tongue nicely.
Les was quite pivotal in growing the game with Johnny Warren. I’d be happy to have it named after himThere are plenty of past famous Aussie footballers we can attach the Cup name too before Les imo if we want to connect the competition with the community and past history of the game then surely we can come up with a past footballer, Socceroo etc..

Not too sure how to feel about this. Hopefully more defensive reinforcements mean we see less Ingham.
How about the 'The Rale Rasic Cup'? Great interview by Bozza what a legend this guy is!
I used to work in the media department there. You are 100% correct.Horrible photoshopping! Glory really needs to stop hiring 15 year old graphic designers!
Looks like the eoi is closed on the aleague broadcast rights. 9 bidders fox sports and Stan/nine are pretty much confirmed, and are said to be both domestic and international companies (so probably also includes optus and Amazon). Also they are happy to spread the content between providers)
Nine ‘world class’ bidders in market for A-League broadcast rights, says Lederer
Nine leading broadcast players - both domestic and international - are in the mix to tie-up the A-League’s TV rights, with a decision “very close” to being finalised.theworldgame.sbs.com.au
MUFC want to buy CCM = good
MUFC then wanting to move CCM to Sydney = brain dead.
Why do the worlds dumbest people buy sports teams?
Sydney doesn't need another team. They barely support the ones they have in relation to the population of the city. Really, really stupid ideaBrain dead? It's been in the works/talked about for a long time and would unlock a huge chunk of Sydney without a team. I know for instance that a lot of my friends and myself who currently have a reasonably passing interest in going to A-League games would go a whole lot more, and the train from the Central Coast into Sydney is 30-40 minutes so CCM fans would still be able to get there reasonably easily.

If it's only a 30-40 minute train ride why don't the fairweather Sydney-based supporters travel rather than making the decades-long supporters do so?
Couldn't disagree more re: Sydney crowds to Melbourne. There's a reason Melbourne makes claim to sporting capital of the world...Do they? Reckon Sydney supports their teams better than Melbourne does.
North Sydney has a much bigger population catchment than the coast.

Alienate your current fanbase costing you fans then hope a notoriously fairweather city picks up the slack isn't the way forward IMO.
A-League just keeps dwindling down to nothing anyway, none of this will matter in 3 years
