The FFA are not perfect but they doing ok.
We need to get more of these 'eurosnobs' supporting our local football, i cant stand them to be honest
Same with the kiddies, get more into a-league and NPL matches, they our future!
All levels of the game need to put youth development first in order to produce the best players possible for national team and future a-league players
The game in this country is completely under funded at all levels and the FFA and state bodies don't do enough in this area
Players agents and the parents ruin too many young talent, they just hype them up to the point where the players don't earn it the hard way like the rest of the world
The league needs expanding ASAP with a second tier/division and eventually
The police and admin within don't understand the passion that fans bring to the sport
We tend to look australian football as inferior to the rest of the world, this needs to change if we want to achieve something in football

Get on it Frank

It is much more important to win the Chapionship than the Premiership
Pablo Sanchez should be re-signed by Adelaide
The A-league should not expand soon

I think that is popular opinion

totally agree just a bit worried about the temperament

I can be drunk and be totally an awesome dude

We need more teams in Sydney and Melbourne tv regions. This is the best way to increase interest and potential revenue. This is where the customers and viewers are.

Fuck Mat Leckie off unless it's against a vastly superior side.
Final round should all be at different times so we can watch them.
CFG are amazing.
David Carney has been one of the league's best this season, regardless of team results.

Sydney united and South melbourne hellas should be in the a-league

Hakoah also

Pokemon are in
Defenders of Burk are out!

I think the FFA wants all A-League clubs to have academies by 2019 and the Strategic Plan has them assessing progress over the next 4 years.

2019?

This is how everyone except the FFA and EG view the WOFP

WOFP?

Jamie Young is a better shot stopper than Ryan.

No its National Development Training Centres, they want to create these things and be in place by 2019.

I heard that every a-league club will aim to have all academies in place next year.

I think you are right with 2017 for academies.

I remembered putting the info on here a few weeks back lol

I agree with that... Doesn't mean that all money should funnel in grassroots, but yeah, I think that model makes a lot of sense.

WOFP:

"These views were supported by a detailed analysis of the sporting landscape in Australia and internationally. Experts from around the world helped inform the Whole of Football Plan, including our peers at DFB (German Football Association) and MLS (Major League Soccer); we left no stone unturned in delivering a vision for Football in Australia."

I would say pretty top heavy on the MLS.

Just so many players out of position :lol:
Like... Almost all of them haha

true but it almost works

reminds me of this

I could never invent a sandwich like this, Lister. You see all the ingredients are wrong. The fried eggs: wrong; the chutney: wrong. The chilli sauce: all wrong. But put them together and somehow it works. It becomes right. It's you -- this sandwich, Lister, is you.

I agree with MacDaddy, as long as he has an afro

You might be surprised. We signed a MOU with the DFB in 2013 and they have been helping us on the issues of player development, technical issues, coach development, the exchange of information and best practices for football management etc and in our preparations for running the Asian Cup last year.

The Final Series Cup pre-season is far to long. Time to cull the pre-season games back from 27 to 18, so to stop the Final Series Cup clashing with the bigger sports.
