Embattled A-League club Brisbane Roar will return to the training base they were evicted from last year to host an FFA Cup tie next month.Details for the knockout tournament were confirmed on Tuesday, with the Roar locked in to face Perth Glory at Ballymore Stadium on August 10 for their first-ever home FFA Cup match.The Roar trained out of Ballymore for several years, but were kicked out last year when the Queensland Rugby Union took legal action against the club due to unpaid rent.It has long been favoured as a football venue by supporters because of its smaller, more intimate nature in comparison to the cavernous Suncorp Stadium - but a tense relationship between the two sports, and a reluctance shown by previous Roar administrators, has meant only pre-season matches have been staged there during the A-League era.The Roar are currently in a state of flux following news last month that the club would be sold by owners the Bakrie Group to a new mystery consortium, headed by Melbourne businessman and former A-League club sponsor Daniel Cobb.Meanwhile, the third edition of the FFA Cup will begin on July 27, with last years semi-finalists Hume Citys clash against four-time National Soccer League champions Marconi Stallions the marquee opening match, along with games in Darwin, Cairns and Sydney that evening.The tournament will continue on August 2 and August 3, while the Wollongong Wolves high-profile clash against Sydney FC is also set for August 10 at WIN Stadium.

Now, correct me if Im wrong but I saw one official distinctly pointing at the net indicating a good goal but after an inconclusive review they overturned the goal. Shouldnt the ruling on the ice (good goal) stand after an inconclusive review? Why was this overturned? James Veaudry Pembroke, ON -- Hey Kerry, Youll get a lot of these, but why was the Montreal goal against Nashville Saturday night overturned? Eller puts the puck on net and the on ice ruling from the ref behind the net is a Montreal goal. Corey Davis Womens Jersey . -- The goal posts lying flat on the field, Arizonas fans lingered on the field, congregating around the locker room entrance nearly 30 minutes after rushing out of the stands. Tennessee Titans Jerseys . The recently retired Stern was elected Friday to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and will be enshrined with the class of 2014 on Aug. LeBron James made his third championship-celebrating trip to the White House on Thursday, welcomed as he was for the first two such trips by President Barack Obama.If James returns in the next four years, it may seem very awkward.James is no fan of President-elect Donald Trump, and -- after a most divisive presidential campaign ended this week -- athletes and coaches are dealing with the same emotions as those in everyday walks of life. And many in the sports world havent been shy about expressing their disappointment over Trumps election.I cant say Ive ever been ashamed of our country, Detroit Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy said. Until today.James openly backed Hillary Clinton for president, and it just so happened that he and the Cleveland Cavaliers were at the White House -- part of the standard reward for winning a championship -- on the same day Trump was. Obama met with Trump in the Oval Office to talk presidential transition as the Cavaliers were getting a tour, then Obama greeted the NBA champions on the South Lawn about two hours later.There was no mention of Trump during the Cavaliers ceremony.There have been many, many mentions of president-elect in many other realms of the sports world.All of a sudden, youre faced with the reality that the man whos going to lead you has routinely used racist, misogynist, insulting words, Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. Thats a tough one. Thats a tough one. I wish him well. I hope hes a good president. I have no idea what kind of president hell be because he hasnt said anything about what hes going to do. We dont know.Its rare that one topic can be the primary discussion point in locker rooms across different sports at the same time.This is one of those times.New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady were peppered with questions Wednesday about their preferences, after Trump indicated he had their support. But in college football, Alabama coach Nick Saban said -- somewhat unbelievably -- he wasnt even aware of Election Day.It was so important to me that I didnt even know it was happening, Saban said. Were focused on other things here.Chicago Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta tweeted that its time for Hollywood to pony up and head for the border, what appeared to be a reference to some actors and entertainers saying they would move to Canada if Trump won.dddddddddddd. Trump also had support from others in sports; Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Richie Incognito used Trumps signature Make America Great Again phrase as a hashtag.Los Angeles Clippers coach Doc Rivers has golfed with Trump, though didnt support his candidacy. Rivers said if people truly want change in the future, more should vote.Right now, we have a president in office who is terrific, Rivers said. And we have one coming in that has done nothing yet, and youve got to give him a shot. Hes going to be president. Thats a guarantee.Trump and sports are often intertwined, including earlier this year when the PGA Tour announced that his Doral course near Miami would not host an event for the first time in more than 50 years. Part of the issue at Doral, though not the entire problem, was that Trump made plenty of caustic comments during his campaign and that made finding sponsorship for a PGA Tour event on one of his courses difficult.The Doral tournament, somewhat ironically, is headed to Mexico -- the country that Trump wants divided from the U.S. by a wall to combat illegal immigration. On Thursday, Mexican Formula One driver Sergio Perez ended his relationship with one of his sponsors after that company, Hawkers, made a joke that Perez thought was in poor taste about the planned wall.I would never let anyone make fun of my country, Perez said.But the frustrations are certainly not limited to minorities in sports right now. Kerr and Van Gundy, two of the leagues most outspoken coaches about many issues, are white.Van Gundy said he couldnt figure out what was bothering his team Wednesday, before Pistons forward Aron Baynes -- an Australian -- spoke up and suggested that the team vent about the election.And after that talk, Van Gundy let his anger out. He said he lives in Oakland County, Michigan, an area that voted primarily for Clinton.At least I can look around, Van Gundy said, and say we werent the ones putting that guy in office.---AP Sports Writer Tim Booth in Seattle contributed to this report.
