And the away


This is by far the most outstanding home design..well done.
The club will be making signings in the next couple of months, any idea or rumours on potential signings for those who may have an insight?..

It looks near impossible to buld a new team when you have everyone in lockdown.
Maybe players will be signed by someone wandering around Australia in a Hazmed suit?
But how do you get Visa players?
Anyway its going to be the same issue all around the world.
My best guess would be a delayed start to the next season for all Football.
Most likley a two month window once the Corona Virus is conquered.

Benjamin made a good post earlier in the week.
There will be a huge number of uncontracted players at seasons end including OS players.
Its probably a good opportunity to start from scratch for this team.

Rumour is that they have 10-12 players signed including some Aussies returning from overseas.  I don't know whether they are genuine rumours or SST type rumours though.  :)

Let’s hope for the sake of the game that Macarthur do have their act together and will deliver. 

After a less than stellar entry to the competition by WU (their stadium is surely even further delayed now with all events going on), we need some good news stories.

Macarthur FC are also being sued by a former worker, with Neil Favager claiming uncertainty around his position caused "significant health & safety issues" for him and heightened stress & anxiety for his spouse. Macarthur strongly denied the claims. [SMH]https://t.co/OOIJy3q8X9
— A-League Hub (@AleagueHub) June 2, 2020

Neil Favager, who joined Macarthur FC as chief operating officer in October 2019, claims some of his duties were reassigned amid a change of ownership at the club, and that the uncertainty around his position caused "significant health and safety issues" for him and heightened stress and anxiety for his spouse, which were aggravated by a pre-existing medical issue."

There was an accident on the way to work and I was stuck in traffic and therefore 25 minutes late to work. 

I want to sue the idiots involved in the pile up for the pain and frustrated that was caused to me because of their incompetence.

• FFA will receive 10% yields from the sale of new Club licenses and on the net profits from any sale of existing licenses.

https://www.apfca.com.au/new-leagues-working-group-nlwg-reaches-in-principle-agreement-on-recommendations-for-a-new-era-for-football-in-australia/

Are they bound to be in Sydney? Can they sell the license if need be? To another state or country?

If MFC don’t play how much less money do FFA get from Foxtel? Or do CCM just move to Sydney and get it over with

I mean Canberra was one of the teams I put in when I replaced all the MLS team names with Australian city names in FIFA 99 on the Nintendo 64.

How about that Lowy, looks like the A-League and its initial one club per city rule were all early highschool Pala's ideas after all.

CCM are going nowhere. The owners of the Sydney and Melbourne clubs do not want more clubs 'on their turf'.

Next clubs will be:- 
1) where there are no current clubs e.g. Canberra, Wollongong, Hobart or dare I say it Auckland
2) where there is only one e.g. Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth.

The only exception may be Dandenong (Team XI) since it is sufficiently geographically distinct from Melbourne.

Important dates:  The date the New era NLWG recommendations were accepted by FFA council. 
Then compare with thye Date the Bull licence was granted. The FFA may get the full licence Fee.

Hard to see a Canberra club pulling bigger attendances than CCM, but that would be a possible move for the franchise.

Highest non-Socceroo Asian Cup attendance during 2015.

And don't point me towards the two Mariners games held later on-They had no connection to Canberra whatsoever. Devil's advocate, I guess the Asian Cup games didn't either..

That season the Mariners average Gosford crowd was only 7,799 (using wiki as source), so no-one could say anything about Canberra still managing over 5k twice to watch a below average team based 4 hours away.

The Mariners only function at the moment and for the forseeable future is to prevent any other team from coming last.

Surely they have to move to northern Sydney sooner or later.
