Brisbane Roar veteran Jade North has hailed the resilience of John Aloisi as the coach's battle with under-fire managing director Daniel Cobb continues.
Aloisi and football director Craig Moore are involved in a tense stand-off with Cobb, who claims to be the leader of a consortium that is ready to buy the Roar off Indonesian conglomerate, the Bakrie Group.
Cobb says he is stabilising the A-League club before the sale process can begin.
However, Aloisi and Moore are unimpressed with Cobb's two-month reign and are understood to have lost confidence in the Melbourne-based businessman.
The Bakries have sent club chairman Rahim Soekasah and another representative to Brisbane to work through the situation while Cobb is scheduled to meet with Football Federation Australia in Sydney on Friday.
North said the Roar's playing group has been insulated from the crisis by Aloisi and Moore's leadership.
"Obviously they're strong characters and they believe in what's right for us players," North told reporters on Friday.
"We all keep it together here at training.
"It's out of our control, we leave it to John and Craig to fix."
Cobb's meeting with FFA is to discuss marketing and promotional plans for the new season but it is inevitable the focus will turn to the club's general health and his relationship with the football department.
Aloisi and Moore have been pushing for the Roar to move from their training base at Griffith University, where they trained on Friday, to Ballymore, the club's old headquarters.
That deal is close to completion while the Roar will also face Perth Glory at Ballymore next week in their FFA Cup round of 32 clash.
North said the team was looking forward to better facilities and were not bothered about the off-field turmoil.
"I've been through probably worse than this in my career, so for me personally it's water off a duck's back," North said.
"Obviously we want everything to be settled, from the top down to the kit man."
