If you haven't stumbled across it already I highly recommend taking a look at the 84th minute. This new e-zine, put together by Neil Zimmerman of Victory in Melbourne, looks good and Neil has roped in quote a few other bloggers to help him with content.

Victory have finally released details of probably the worst kept secret in A-League history (I know it is only a short history) when it confirmed the signing of Costa Rican international José Luis López Ramírez (Pupy Lopez). Joe Keenan has been released and is expected to take up a role with Scottish Premier League team Hibernian FC.
To give you an idea of how long this has taken to be officially announced I went back and took a look when the Melbourne Victory forum first caught wind of the signing. The first post was on 14 April 2008. That is three months ago ! Of course the need to find a home for Keenan was the major factor in why it took so long to be official but still three months is still a long time.
Lopez is a holding midfielder who by all reports should bring a touch of class with his passing and ability to create out of defense. With Melbourne struggling to maintain possession and play the ball out of defence so often last year his signing should hopefully be a huge step forward for Victory
