Glory and Roar fans will have unprecedented access to Australia’s most prominent football commentator, Les Murray for Sunday's A-League decider via the globally successful live sports social network, PlayUp.

PlayUp is the first ever mobile-based sports social network that enables sports fans to follow live scores and stats while being able to easily talk and banter with their mates and other fans all from the one App.

Co-sponsored by Australia's football fan netwrok, GGArmy, this is an opportunity to talk direct to Australia’s “Mr Football”, Les Murray during the game, where he'll offer his own unique insights and commentary during the highly anticipated A-League final.

Les says the unique feature of PlayUp is that fans will be able to the A-League Grand Final in a way that they feel closely connected to the game without having to be there in person.

“What mobile phone technology has done for the game is that it allows anyone to share their opinion about all the crucial big game moments,” says Murray.

“During the A-League GF I will be there at the game and I hope to be able to add something different to the commentary so I’m hoping to hear from the fans on questions they might have during the live game as we reach the crescendo of the season.”

To join the conversation with Les, sports fans can download PlayUp for free from the Apple iTunes Store or Google Marketplace (http://app.playup.com) and select the GGArmy Hangout against the A-League fixture.
