Melita Eagles/Parramatta FC Legend takes over the helm.
PlayStation4 National Premier Leagues NSW Men’s side Parramatta FC have parted ways with head coach Franco Cosentino with the club appointing former club legend Marshall Soper as the new man in charge until the end of the season.
Cosentino was appointed in 2014 as he led Parramatta FC back into the top flight but the club has found it tough in 2017 as the senior squad currently sit in twelfth position with five points as well as sitting in bottom position in the club championship ladder.
Soper, a former NSL legend, who made his name in the Australian game as a lethal marksman with the then Parramatta Melita Eagles, has taken over the reigns and will have the task of bolstering the club’s position on the table.
Mike Quarmby, CEO Granville Soccer stated, ”We thank Franco for his passion and dedication, and taking the club into the highest competition in NSW .We wish him every success. In moving forward. Quarmby also stated “we are very excited to have a man of Marshall’s credentials join us and look further to supporting the goals and targets he is setting.”
