Where: Suncorp Stadium
Preview:
The Roar showed some good signs through Khalfallah and Maccarone in the early stages of their match against Adelaide United last week and were unlucky not to be 2-0 up within the first half hour. The Italian striker opened his account for the Roar at Suncorp Stadium and his touches are classy and reflective of a player who has experience at the top European level.
These are the games that Newcastle must win if they are to settle into that top 4 position on the A-League table. The combination of Nabbout and O’Donovan is working well under Ernie Merrick with O’Donovan going at better than a goal a game and Nabbout providing excellent supply to the Irish striker.
FINAL SAY: What value do you put on the executive level crisis at the Roar? Whilst Khalfallah insisted midweek that it made no difference and he didn’t care, when issues about payments start surfacing you’d be hard pressed as a player not to take some interest.
