ADELAIDE United fans will have to wait until a press conference at 2pm to find out the fate of coach John Kosmina, as speculation mounts that he will lose his job.

Cant act like that and expect much more. Good to see the owner(s) wont take any crap...wish the Sixers were as strict...Farley anyone!

Says in the advertiser online that a decision HAS been made

Rumour is that he's gone, CEO too?

Not sure what the CEO has done right/wrong but the club cannot allow their head coach to act like the way Kosi did this year. He must be gone

pardon me whilst i continue laughing, this forum is full of people wanting to sack smyth for a lack of passion??...now "coaches cannot act like that"...isnt what kosi did "passion" ?

Kosmina and Aloisi to be sacked.

me - I think those people are suggesting that a compromise is best. Al Westover last night was a good example of what I gather some would prefer.

Got inside word - Alosi will be sacked as Captain with Costanzo to take over - find out in 10 minutes

Or sounds like a job waiting for someone in Sydney :)

Word is that the board voted heavily against Kosmina. Was offered a role with a lot of restrictions and resigned without a payout.

Vidmar is in on an interim basis.

Aloisi stripped of captaincy.

Told that Rech, Qu gone, possibly Petta too.

Isaac, no payout......are you sure?

Surely change of employment terms and conditions would constitute a new role and therefore redundancy if he did not accept?

If all of that is true, then well done Nick Bianco. It was smart as even though Kossie is a great coach, he got banned twice last season. John lacks discipline and got what he deserved. Qu, Rech i agree with getting rid of.

Word is that Petta wants to stay now Kosi is gone

Sack Aloisi too. I think its gonna happen since he was stripped off the captaincy.
Constanzo is an excellent leader.

Good news for Adelaide United tonight though, as Michael Valkanis has been cleared of all charges against him.

Who do you guys think will replace Kossie?

Vidmar?

Someone else?

seeing all the press in the press conference today cheer when he announced his reitrement was one of the greatest karma treatments i have ever seen.

what goes around comes around kosi, people have been witing for this day!

It's a shame if Qu leaves. I know he was injured all year that guy was a champ.

Good news about Valkanis.
Hear hear, Doctor E, but is he going to be worth having around if he's injured? (bit like Wheeler)

Very sad to also see Greg Owens go as well.

Loved Qu as well, if he gets healthy will be a great asset.

Aloisi, Veart past their useby date.

The best policy for A-League clubs is to bring home Australian players (not the "world cup" stars) that are playing at second tier clubs or leagues in Europe and can earn similar or slightly less money by coming home. Melb Victory started this by brining home Milicevic, Adelaide rumoured to be brining home 30yo Agostino is also the right move in this direction.
