What are your thoughts on this new league fellas?
I personally reckon anythings better than the NSL format, MAN THAT SUCKED
Wonder if this will take off and be as huge as they hope it to be |

they've got a few big stars though
ie. Dwight York gonna be playing for Sydney FC...
I reckon that'll spark some interest, I can only hope as I think quality Soccer is needed in Australia |

The ads all over the tv are cool...but all it will take is one riot and all the hard work will be undone.
Personally i don't follow soccer but i hope this takes off because i want Australia in the world cup for once (maybe then i';ll take interest) |

I'm going to go to Sydney FC matches when they start, i think the whole organisation deserves the support of the fans, as long as they can deliver a decent product. All the signs look promising, and the potential is certainly high, but i'm slightly pessimistic about the sustainability its going to have.
It will be nice to have a team to go and support that is actually from where I live, rather than some European team that i just decided i liked. |

sydney look pretty good on paper, they have a very potent attack but yorke has been a bit off in the pre-seasons (apparently)
i dont think it will be as big as they hope, just because the competition with other sports is too great and there arent enough people in australia to supply the fan base needed to survive. (that and alot of people might still think that soccer is a fags game):whip: |

| I don't care what tricks they have up their sleeves and how hyped up this competition is, Australian soccer is and always will be complete . |

one of my friends plays for central coast, so ill support him
I rekon its alot better because it removes the nationalities owning one side. It will take time (years) for it to develop so I wont expect miracles. At least some big business men are backing it up such as Frank Lowey and such.
Another bonus is Australia joining the Asian's for qualifications for the world cup which should be more interesting. |
