What makes you think I’m not too? The whole issue is James Johnson and Nick Garcia seemingly thinking the A-League after 19 years still isn’t ‘white-bread’ enough for the people they theoretically wish to replace us with as its primary consumers💡

Read what I said 'not stopping others doing it'.
We have gone thru this many times, you have explained & reading Ange's book I understand the passion & I too experienced the racism in the 70s/80s.
Merry Christmas & in the New Year, we will continue to see things differently & that is OK by me.

Thats an interesting assumption ... and speculation on financials.... perhaps 4-5 years ago you would have had 40-50% accuracy in your statement now its just absolute garbage.... maybe ask people before speaking for them mate.

Ok, always happy to be better informed from someone more knowledgeable. So South Melbourne have $20 million cash just lying around?

Nsl and a league both failed to break into the minds of the mainstream. So us arguing about who's worse is like two ugly people saying who's prettier

Reminds me of the time I met Mono in hell.

We were both sent there for our various indiscretions and the Devil told Mono he had one chance to be returned to life to mend his ways. He had to make love to the ugliest woman in hell

So he did and applied himself most diligently.

Next morning Mono saw me coming out of another room with Elle McPherson

In his anti-franchise plastic left-out way he went to the Devil and asked why it was so unfair that he had to make love to the ugliest woman in hell and I got Elle McPherson

The devil looked him in the eye and said "Elle had to be given her chance too" ☹️.

Why did the rest of them that made it? In your argument Perth who was an nsl club did but Sth didnt?!?

Since once more you seem to know "all the facts" here is an actual truth for you from the get go, from those more in the know than you thats for sure!

"In 2004, a group of Marconi Stallions owners tried to secure a license for the inaugural league. They were considered top contenders to join the league alongside South Melbourne."
Reference: Sydney Morning Herals - 2 articles in 2004.

The above articles cover your monetary concern quite in depth may i add as well as the other "criteria issues" your type claim...but hey, again why let truth get in the way of your fairtale... anyone who knows is aware what "the criteria" that didnt let those teams in was, and it had absolutely nothing to do with money!

but keep slinging your bullshit mate bc as always you seem to have gotten "a divorce" from anything based in fact you muppet.

Maybe you’d be better off on the NPL thread. Not as much angst and hate on that one.

Mate, in the post before that I said they should have been included and would be a great addition to the league with their passionate fans and stadium and so on, but they don’t have the cash. Your reaction is irrational, disrespectful and weird.

Nope, but they did in 2018 , the last time we will ever "bid" .. at least Ross Pelligra did, before his money was rejected and forced to go travelling all the way over to Perth to buy a failing club for $1 inc GST 6 years later.

@Kitwally either you know the facts and chose to ignore them for your own amusement or you dont know the facts and really dont care to hear them.

Either way, my blue and white brother in arms has every right to be frustrated by the "same old garbage" slung around over and over and over again.

Ta!

What percentage at the Melb derby do you think were - Vic fans - and City fans - MCG?

Auckland's crowds are dropping, which is a shame.

Which ground is Spoonbowl?

I’m sorry Ross got rejected in 2018. Anything else you want from me? I’ve said multiple times South Melbourne should have been allowed in the league and would be a great addition. Ever thought that you guys just need someone to argue with?

Its never been about anyone to argue with although the "us vs all of you" mentality allows for even more devotion to our team in truth and thats part of real football culture.. ntohing wrong with that.

Yes you did say we shouldve been in, and nonone doubted that, but in a similar underhanded way as the so called "aleague purists" , you continue to regurgitate the same "lies and slander" of those "we fixed all things soccer" sycophants that still see the problem as laying with "those teams and those people" depsite all the truth pointing to the contrary...

Thats the crux of all of it, its nothing to do with envy (maybe at some point initially it was, but that has loooong passed), now it may have developed into hatred given the means and measures from David Hill onwards that eventually culminated in the franchise league...

Now it needs to become about the right steps and drastic changes needed for the game to finally get to a point to live up to its potential, and like it or not we all have to do our part without exclusions, with pro/rel, etc... after all we all agree that both the bsl and the aleague have been failures for mostly the same reasons and some not so similar!
