Notes: Logo wise Ipswich is home to a large air base, so I've gone with a basic roundel, I like things simple (similar to Hamburg SV). Still going with the Ipswich City name though.

+xWTF is going on with Canberra? The last thing we need is a 13 team league next year.
No one wants to spend the money in Australia. Hence, rescue packages for existing clubs taking priority (it's cheaper for the new owners)
