from a-league.com.au:
And while the Mariners are welcoming a new player, the Roar are farewelling Michael Baird, who is headed for Romania to take up a contract there. Baird said his side's 5-0 win over Perth showed it had the potential to make the final four next season.
"I think we have shown that we are a good team and we have threatened a result like that for some time now. Stuart McLaren coming into the side added that extra bit of steel and maturity and I think we have benefited from that," Baird said.
"We all wanted to make the top four but we left our run too late. We responded well to the added pressure of those crunch games recently and it’s a shame that we don’t have the finals to go for this week with our form as good as it is. We're determined to finish the season well and give something back to the fans this weekend," he added.
"It's going to be a big game for me and certainly I’ll be sad when the final whistle goes. Everyone at the club has been so supportive about my move to Romania and despite the fact that I'm following my dream to play in Europe, I am very sad to be leaving. I'd love to sign off with a goal for the fans who have been great to me," he said.

I think as part of our songs for Queensland we should have something for Baird.
I cant remember who the other one earlier in the season, but that's now TWO Roar players that have made ridiculously stupid moves to crappy European clubs. I think he is going to a second tier Romanian club.
It is essential for the A-League to succeed that the best players stay in this country but I dont think there is much the FFA can specifically do besides what they have done, put on a successful league with a big future.
It's up to the players to realise that they can be part of something special here, stay in the nicest country, where their friends and family all live, and get probably a far greater chance to break into the socceroos now that we have loads of asia games.
So whether it's something about Baird being stupid, or Romania being inferior to Australia, lets get one back for the A-League!
Also, some other song ideas for up there?

On a roll there dibo  Maybe just a slight adjustment to the last one, yellow bonnet instead of yellow 'n' blue bonnet... just a bit easier to say, expecially after a couple of drinks ;D |

reading the roar forums...apparently RM is going to be supporting the yellows next year. maybe he could clarify on this?
lucky we have a whole bus trip to work out/practise new songs on, i say preparation for some good new materials for the finals will certainly be done on the marinator convoy.
