David Eland: "A record number of nominations received for this years NNSW Preliminary Rounds of the @FFACup"

Teams I want to see make it this year to the round of 32 and why. Broke Queensland down into it's zones.

Queensland (North): Gotta be the Fury. There time to come back to the national stage :cool:

Queensland (City): Brisbane City is the only traditional QLD club that still hasn't made it to the round of 32 yet. They have a great stadium as well. Brisbane Olympic also deserve another chance to host after being conned by the FFA into moving to ANZ Stadium (Griffith)

Queensland (SEQ Regional): I'm sick of Palm beach and that empty stadium. Noosa Lions or SEQ Thunder thanks. Toowomba would certainly turn up for a big game.

Northern NSW: Adamstown Rosebuds is one of the oldest clubs in Australia and is an ex-NSL participant. A Non-Newcastle club would be great, especially from around Coffs Harbour or Port Macquarie, couldn't name any though.

NSW: APIA Leichardt and Marconi could both use a bit of a lift right now and would provide interesting ties for any A-League club. Wollongong Wolves to push their A-League case and St George FC for a glorious return to the national stage with a proper Johnny Warren tribute. Also Sydney United purely for the #scenes. [-o<

ACT: Bring back the Tugs

VIC: South Melbourne and Knights obviously. One of them will have to play us eventually and it will be a riot but what I really want to see is Preston Lions make a massive run in. They've got a great ground, a big history in Victoria and could use some help getting into the NPLV. Would also like to see a regional team like Ballarat Red Devils get a run.

TAS: Gotta be South Hobart. They're really making a name for themselves each year.

SA: West Adelaide. City has had there run, now It's time for Adelaide's other big Club.

NT: 🍀🍀🍀[size=6]ALICE SPRINGS CELTIC[/size]🍀🍀🍀

WA: Who cares. No one wants to draw them and always the most boring games tbh.

Some rule changes for this season

agreed with everything, MT. However a bit harsh on Palm Beach. It isn't their fault. Keen to see familiar names.

Sunshine Coast Fire please. I would like that vs A-League (not BR) at Kawana.

The increase in club participation is in.
NNSW has 3 more clubs participating than last year. Brisbane jump from 61 to 67. Victoria, who's applications don't close till the 8th of Febuary, have seen an increase from 191 to 193. Let's just hope for no forfeits this time.

Needs more Gisborne :lol:

Good to see more clubs taking part. It's awesome exposure for them if they can break into R32.

Hopefully other clubs will jump on board in the coming years.

Any word on them changing to Gold Coast City? Is that still a thing? :-k

Of course ;)

I'm hoping the numbers coming through include regional clubs. I have asked the local FA's and am just waiting on a response.



I think they were just whispers. Besides, I like Palm Beach better.

Yea they did end up changing their name and logo, that's what they're listed as on the NPL qld website

Yes, that change is now official for their NPL teams. I believe the name Palm Beach will still be used for any teams they have in the local Gold Coast comps.

The regional teams from Northern NSW are an interesting one. Overall there is an increase, but in each of the three years of the FFA Cup there are large fluctuations from some zones. I'd love to see more incentive for these clubs to participate, particularly because the first few rounds are all played within their local areas anyway.

It'd be quite easy as well for a zone to piggy back off the FFA Cup and use it as their own cup of sorts. E.g. The winner of the Northern Inland zone ends up playing the winner of the Mid North Coast zone. Each of those zones could make it mandatory for all clubs to enter a team, and make it a big deal to be the Zone Representative at the next stage of the FFA Cup.

I suspect for the regional teams the cost to participate plays a bigger part as well, although I'm sure it's not much.

A-League sides to enter they're states in the last 64 pls [-o<

Would love seeing some of these old clubs play "derbies" against A-League opposition before the round of 32.
This would start the cup off with a bang if the ties were Marconi were hosting the Wanderers, Knights play Melb City and Adel City host United.

Victoria draw for the prelims is feb 9

It would have to be national. Unfair taking the cups away from the states tbh.

The only concern I'd have is travel and accommodation costs involved if the round of 64 went national.
If it wasn't an issue then I'd be all for it.

I think that whatever round the A-League teams come in, it has to be National. Some of the biggest games of the cup will be local derbies (e.g. Victory vs South Melbourne), and you don't want to manufacture them to be in the Round of 64.

I'd also be open to the Round of 64 becoming the first national round, but the A-League clubs only enter at the last 32. This gives more grassroot clubs the chance for an interstate trip.

As soon as al clubs come in it has to be national. Has to be.

I'd support this. So it'd essentially be a Round of 44 with State clubs, and 22 advance to R32 with A-League clubs.

I would like this.
1 FNQ
1 Fury would probably still fuck up against Charters Towers or Whitsundays or something
1 Sunshine/Wide Bay
1 GC/Toowoomba
4 Brisbane

Interestingly, in tonight's match (Bris V Adel) the boy who brought the ball out was introduced as being from Gold Coast City, and he had a blue and white jersey on. Hmm...

Holy shit cunts its confirmed. Refer to futbol24. They have a game tonight under the name Gold Coast City. This correlates with reports in the Gold Coast Bulletin. :shock:

they are gcc

Eh.
