I've had it with that site!
The constant bickering and bullshit!
The weekly NSL v HAL debate these some of those guys can just never let go that the NSL is dead, and its like the downfall of the HAL will prove them right somehow.
I can't understand how you can love a game and in the same breathe want to see it fail.

Its so frustrating as well because I want to go on there and discuss football at different levels SAASL, FFSA and HAL are all covered there.

I probably will go back but for now I will leave it be before I throw my laptop through a window!

Most that argue for the nsl were not even old enough to remember it.

The ffa cup if it ever happen will be awsome for reason u stated!

If it ever happens.
I thought it was mooted to start next season.

Next season...
Will we have to wait 8 months again?

Its frustrating but I would much rather wait for them to get it right and don't rush into the thing. The last thing the FFA need to to piss off all the old ethnic clubs which in some cases are looking for any excuse to hate on them.
Come up with a good comp that everyone is happy with and hopefully makes these clubs a nice bit of coin and everyone is happy.

The alleged FFA cup is doomed from the start if it's just to placate the old guard. If it doesn't regularly end up with matches in the sort of places currently used for one offs (Bathurst, etc.) then there is no point.

People, they are having trouble keeping the league together, how are they going to organise a National Cup competition?

I think the FFA pissed off the "old clubs" long ago.

Thats why this comp is so important. If the FFA can be seen to be offering these clubs big meaningful matches, national tv time, larger exposure and hopefully a direct revenue stream many thing may be forgotten?

Don't you know sevengoals, any club which existed before the A-League began must be referred to as an "ethnic club".

Break this rule again and I shall have to ban you, mod or not ;)

Well that was the rule they brought in pretty much. Otherwise Perth and Newcastle wouldn't have been part of the A-league.

Yes I even played in one match! (sure it may have been mini league half time of a West Adelaide game!)
