    When all you have to comeback with is a typo, spelling mistake or grammatical error (might want to check the spelling on that one for me also) then you have already lost.

    As far as retorts go it’s the Hail Mary pass that is fumbled, intercepted and ran back for a touchdown.

     

     

    he's clutching at straws and arguing the toss about a managerial appointment for a team which plays in a league his team doesn't play in about a manager he seems entirely ignorant about even though he lives in the country where he made his reputation. Oh well.

    What I said was "The team Ange assembled lost 2-1 to France and drew 1-1 with Denmark. If your Gran has had better results, then getting her UEFA licence should be no bother and coaching the old firm should be a breeze ;)"

    I didn't say that he was the manager in the World Cup. Do you not know about why he resigned?

    You might want to bring that to the attention of your man who's trying to credit him with the other results in the group then. 

    He made that squad. They played his style. He walked away as I said previously due to pressure from the press back home, which doesn't bode well.
    Do I read right that you are in WA and don't know all this?

    Yes, those footballing powerhouses of Saudi Arabia and Iran. And then you further prove my point by saying he managed them to a defeat and a draw in the tournament. What a fantastic achievement. 

    wow, just wow.
    Suffice to say you have no idea about football in Asia or Postecoglou's past efforts.
    I'm glad you feel confident that your gran has a chance in World Cup Qualification and/or winning the highly prestigious SPL.
    Australia did indeed lose to France by one goal (2-1) which was the same margin that France had over both Belgium and Argentina before they won the thing (i.e. nobody beat France in WC2018).
    Australia drew with Denmark who lost out to runners up Croatia AET in the Round of 16.
    I cuts me deep to say this, but I only wished Scotland had that level of success in recent times. Here's hoping we beat up the Czechs, Croats and smash the English at Wembley on our way to the future.

    If people could stop saying Postecoglu took Australia to World Cups like it is some sort of incredible footballing achievement, that would be great. My gran could manage them to victories over shite like Bangladesh, Tajikistan or Jordan. 

    Doesn't sound like you have much of a clue about how AFC qualifying works then. Japan, Iran, Saudi Arabia and South Korea are the real challenges. They have two group phases as opposed to UEFA's one. The teams you mention were well beaten in the first group stage.
    Just the geography of AFC qualifying is ridiculous, not the mention the playoff against Honduras in 2017 under Ange's watch which involved about 60 hours of flights all told, not just a wee jaunt over to the continent...  My observation has been then European teams doing UEFA qualifying have a much more pampered experience. No massive issues with sabotage and unplayable pitches. like in Bishkek and Dushanbe which make your average SJFA pitch look like Hampden.
    The team Ange assembled lost 2-1 to France and drew 1-1 with Denmark. If your Gran has had better results, then getting her UEFA licence should be no bother and coaching the old firm should be a breeze ;)

    In short you're saying : He's an excellent manager who won't get results in the short term so will be sacked and that's a shame because if you give him enough time (with the biggest budget in the land) he would eventually win things.

    Sounds like a real find. 

    The biggest budget in the land isn't exactly massive by European standards though.
