http://outside90.com/official-a-league- ... 19-season/Head of the A-League Greg O’Rourke has confirmed that two new teams will join the A-League from season 2018-19.
Woohoo! Finally something is happening.
That makes sense, but why is it taking so long for them to work out what they want? You've got 10 interested parties banging the door down and the FFA still don't even know what they want.“The FFA doesn’t want potential aspirants to spend time and money putting together a proposal and talking to government in a formal way, until they have a clarity of what is required.
“We have been saying for sometime that any new team in the A-League will need to add value for all existing stakeholders.’’
WTF are they doing down at FFA HQ, if its clearly not working out a framework for expansion?
It really does highlight that expansion wasn't on the agenda what so ever until the AFC and FIFA paid them a visit.
