Soccerroos boss Farina quits job
Frank Farina has left his post as Australia coach.
The Australian federation announced today they had 'mutually agreed to end their association' with Farina, bringing an end to his six-year spell in charge of the Socceroos.
The 40-year-old said: 'Ever increasing speculation on my position is not something that I want to see affect the performance of the team and the potential for that happening has led to this announcement.
'We have the players and the backing to get us to the World Cup and no single element of our approach should be allowed to undermine that.'
Australia lost all three of their games in the recent Confederations Cup in Germany, including a shock 2-0 defeat to Tunisia.
They will play an international against Colombia in August in London ahead of World Cup qualifiers against the Solomon Islands in September. They then play Jamaica in London in October before the final World Cup qualifying hurdle - a home-and-away series against the fifth-ranked South American nation.
Federation chairman Frank Lowy said: 'Frank Farina has been a dedicated coach over the past six years who has given his all for Australian football and we wish him well with his future endeavours.
'However, it is important to now move on and focus on the World Cup campaign; our responsibility is to do everything possible to ensure that Australia will be competing in Germany in 2006.
'We have said that we would be leaving no stone unturned to qualify for the World Cup.'
Technical manager Ron Smith will take over as caretaker coach.
