2:15pm EST announcement

It's just bullshower really. NSW already has 3 teams in the league and they decide to give them another one instead of rewarding Tasmania with a team ::)

[Fletch74]

Yes, but Sydney has only 1, where as Melbourne has 2. A population of 4 million outrates a population of 600,000 odd.

[Jukes]

Yeah state-by-state the a-league team arrangement in very bias. NSW already has 3 teams to choose from, while Melbourne has 2. We all know Queensland can't handle new teams, so I think the new team should have been given to Tassie, country Victoria or South Australia. By the looks of things over here in WA, we don't need another team as our whole public is 100% glory.

In other a-league related stuff, GO THE GLORY this weekend :D

I don't think we need a side in Adelaide. No-one follows Soccer here.

youd be amazed at how much discussion goes on about sa soccer, its an sa forum btw :)

But i do agree in the fact that Adelaide arent quite ready for a SA side yet gives us 5 years :P

I'm just glad there will be 10 teams!
And i will find it interesting how the recruiting goes for them..

[Jukes]

Hopefully they are run good like Heart, unlike those two pathetic Queensland teams.

Will the A-League ever go back to QLD with a new team?

[Cicjose]

The problem with the GC they alienated the public so they had no fan base but they had Clive Palmer's money

North Queensland Fury had the community support but not enough cash

[CrowsFan]

Are you sure the Fury had support Cic? They never had anyone turning up to their games. That doesn't sound like support to me...

All my soccer loving mates here in Adelaide are more focussed on Premier League than that A-League

[Fletch74]

That's only because of the players playing there JB. The A League is a long term investment...

The AFL has people following because we have the best players, same with Rugby, etc.
