We’ve taken the hot poker to our printers to get them working extra hard so that NSW readers get their copies of FourFourTwothis Friday, February 29.

It’s an issue we know you’ll want to get your hands on straight away. Our 42-page season review will let you re-live all the twists and turns of A-League version three, including five pages of analysis and photos from the Jets and Mariners’ Grand Final showdown. We also reveal who’s scooped the coveted FourFourTwo Awards, including Player, Manager and Young Player of the Season.

Elsewhere this month, we talk exclusively to big Josh Kennedy about his curious rise to Socceroos stardom. We also evaluate the challenge facing our teams in the Asian Champions League, chat with Les Ferdinand, remember Busby’s Babes and look at how Real Madrid have prospered after Ronaldo’s departure.

All this and much more this month in FourFourTwo – on sale on Friday in NSW and Wednesday March 5 for the rest of Australia.
