Viddy's outburst - reading between the lines

ALL this;

• one of the best and most experienced defenders in Australian football - Angelo Costanzo - suddenly becoming surplus to requirements half-way through the club's most successful season, one built on a solid defence, which Costanzo was very much a part of,
• arguably the best holding midfielder of the first seven rounds of the season - Jonas Salley -suddenly lost without a trace,
• an aging club veteran in Mike Valkanis who hasn't been a part of things of late, mainly because he just isn't good enough any more, gets his odd chance and really struggles,
• the decision to suddenly release arguably the team's best player over the past two seasons - Diego Walsh - from his contract,
• the clamour from the likes of Ognenovski and Younis to seek out opportunities in Asia,
• players who were once first team regulars - the likes of Spagnuolo and Beltrame - no longer a part of things,
• a marquee player in Paul Agostino who is struggling for game-time makes little to no impression when he does get some game time,
• skipper Travis Dodd being left out of Pim's Verbeek's A-League selection,
• the clique that has apparently surfaced around the the Brazilians at the club,

...and no-doubt plenty more (who knows what's going on in the management office and boardroom). While it in no way excuses Vidmar's outburst, it's little wonder, with so much bubbling beneath the surface, he snapped.
