Not seen confirmation, although any of the Pro-CRWG 6 are entitled to call it, so no doubt will have done  at the first opportunity

I'd like for the FFA to be regular & all of the shit that is blocking Australian football's potential to be flushed.

The overhaul of the governance of Australian soccer has moved a step closer with world governing body FIFA reported to have ­rubber-stamped the Congress Review Working Group recommendations.
It is understood the CRWG report was passed following a meeting of FIFA member associations in Zurich on Monday, clearing the way for its recommendations to be put to a Football Federation Australia extraordinary general meeting in Sydney on September 7.

As if FIFA are going to ring some journo in Sydney Australia. No one 'understands' or :has been noted' anything. Journos now sprouting s.h.I.t. this is big time stuff with big time players. Best the journos shut up until something concrete is said.

But the release could be sitting on journo's desks embargoed until...... Giving FFA time to respond.    It took by the looks of it, 7 days from FIFA meeting on Ghana to the press release getting published.

Do you seriously think Gatty wouldn't let slip a hint on a story this big? Do you think FIFA would issue embargoed press releases to some backwater journo in Sydney Australia? Come on.

The press releases go to all registered and accredited News agencies. Which he works for one from memory.
The story he wrote is hinting at the green stamp being approved.   

Harley-Davidson just release a new model to the market within 1/2 hour(after embargo ended) The magazines released full road test articles and video of them testing it. They did not do the article in 1/2 hr and digitally make a video of a bike they had not seen before.

“Having considered all relevant factors, the Committee welcomed with great appreciation the efforts of the CRWG and the report it produced,” FIFA said in a release dated 22 August and signed by FIFA secretary general Fatma Samoura.

“It further confirmed that the proposed recommendations are fully in line with FIFA’s requirements, in particular Art. 15 of the FIFA Statutes.

“…the Committee moved that the recommendations of the CRWG be submitted to an extraordinary meeting of the FFA to be convened as soon as possible in accordance to the regulatory framework of the FFA.

“Finally, the Committee instructed the FIFA administration to provide it with an update on the matter at its upcoming meeting on 26 September 2018.”

“The Committee was also apprised of the reservations and objections expressed by the FFA Board as well as four of the nine Member Federations, namely Capital Football, Northern Territory, Tasmania and Northern NSW, regarding certain aspects of the CRWG’s recommendations,” the letter read

“In this context, the Committee also took note of the response by the CRWG to these comments.”

It is an Australian Football Constitutional Matter and has no relevance to NZ Football. If anything. A stronger Australian Football System weakens NZ Football further. So be careful what you wish for.

The A league clubs and the PFA have used an independent committee to get the FFA to change is voting structure. FIFA have endorsed this independent report, which basically says to the FFA Board 'change your ways or we will sack/suspend you'.

Might not be 4 for long though. Both Capital and NNSW appear to be under pressure internally to change their positions.

As I understand it;

Corporations Act requires 21 days notice for the EGM from when a 5% member calls it.

We now await the EGM confirmation

Closed HAL is failing with 10 teams
Closed HAL failed with 11
FFA forced to try a 12 team Closed HAL thatll just create 2 more mid table also-rans
and still this weird 16-team panacea gets trotted out.

 "FFA must give notice for an extraordinary general meeting to put the resolutions forward for adoption no later than September 7."
Meeting date not set in stone YET - FIFA expect result by 25th September to make deadline.
