Rumour mill would be more appropiate for this.

It's vital to have this B-League, without it the A-League (down the ladder) will be just plain boring at the end of the year. With the addition of a B-League clubs will have to try even harder not to get the wooden spoon to avoid the drop.

Would love to see some kind of credible link though, there's been lots of rumours about this B-league thing though none has proven serious.

How many fucking times have we had a thread like this and it's always started by a fucking Sydney Olympic supporter. Give it up ffs.

Rumour is strong

Giannaros was talking to Syd United president and a few others from football federation
during the game between Sydney Olympic vs Sydney United

Must say Syd Unitdd arent interested in joining lol

My rumour is very strong
There will be promotion relagation and this will make the A league more viable

Anyway seems people on here dont want to chat about it
all people wana do on here is call people names

Syd cro your team will be in Super League you have no idea

Leave this topic open moderator
Maybe in a different section

The rumour is strong every fucking 3-4 weeks this comes up. If it happens and it's successful then great but really at the moment it's all just the same bullshit we've heard over and over again.

Until someone comes out with some 100% hard proof that this is actually being discussed then bullshit is all this will be.

You're like a Greek Yoda.

I can exclusively reveal today the source of these leaks.....

Id rather get the A-League in shape before going out and beginning a second league.

Get a Vanuatu team in the B-League, the A-League is reserved for us Kiwi's

B-league marketing slogan "And you thought A-league crowds were bad"

Can't get the A-League in shape without a second division. I think it's vital for many reasons.

aint gonna happen in the near future

:lol:

B-league must happen soon for me but I highly doubt it will who else would be in there
Another WA Team?
Another SA Team?
NT Team?
Canberra team?
Coffs Harbour?
Tassie Team?
Western Sydney?
Pacific Pride?
Any other ideas?

A Geelong/surf coast team?
South Melbourne?
Freo?

Any day now, lads.

you got inside word? :cool:

Reminds me of the "US to bomb Iran within days" threads on Whirlpool. The last thread I found was from 2003 :lol:

I call fakes since there is no way in hell the FFA would be stupid enough to call it the "B-league".... oh wait.

Two more youth league players off to England (Edwards')
Semi-pro B league based on former NSL clubs could fill the gap. Bridge the New Football / Old soccer divide. Promotion / relegation could be left for 5 years or so down the track.
Wollongong Wolves, NQ Fury, Canberra, Tassie, South Melb, Knights, Marconi, Olympic. would be enough to get it started.

Sounds like a load of sh*t as FFA are anti effnik e.g. Olympic, South Melbourne etc.

Oh and when I was at APIA Leichhardt Tigers in the NSW Premier League in 2009, they had changed their name to 'Sydney Tigers.' This was in order to be looked at for the 'B League' that was being created in the next year or two, and also to remove their ethnic background (Italians) and start over. Some were up in arms, but they name was changed. Funnily enough though, in 2010, once I had left, they had changed the name back to APIA Leichhardt Tigers. So much for the B League/APIA's involvement...

why cant this topic just die? the FFA doesnt want to expand at the moment it just wants to consolidate its position becasue it is bleeding money and almost broke.

If you think that this is fianacially viable at the moment then you are kidding yourselves.

+1. My apologies for somewhat bumping it.

So your happy with our youth leaving without playing
A league

How weak is the A league getting wen they cant have there own junions
and reply of a few players from various state leagues and buying lots
of overseas rejects every year 1 in 5 are duds or 35 plus as long as
we call the A league the pensioner league

Creation of the b League is neccesary fcuk this a league is gettting shitter and shiter every year

Its called the National Youth League? Its early days, let it continue.


I'd disagree with that. Quality has gotten better since 2005 quite easily.

You're a fucking stooge. How will the A-League standard get better with a B-League anyway. In recent years the standard of the league has tripled, and there have been a lot of very talented young juniors coming through the A-League, I can think of 10 off the top of my head. The standard of imports has got much better as well, and there haven't been many over 35's come into the league over the past few seasons. The Youth League is perfect for younger players who can't get a game, it's already there, make use of it, don't break the bank to risk forming a B-League which will be sure to fail.
