sounds like time for us to show everyone what we're made of! compared to cove we dont have the numbers so i reckon we should be more accepting of the A-league. the cove is full of drunk bandwagoners, if we were in the Gay Leaguewe ould have numbers bigger than theres, so if we can get our numbers no in the state league imagine. If sydney city was in the state league there would be no cove. And we cannot accept a league that was implemented to destroy our club. fair points?

Olympic could match HAKOA's crowds tomorrow if we were accepted in the A-league.
That's what Lowy is afraid of....tradition and passion. Most people that don't come to Olympic now say that it's because we don't play in top flight. So if that changed, they would all be back.
Lets compare apples with apples.

Victory in bid to revamp A-League Michael Lynch September 13, 2010 MELBOURNE Victory chairman Geoff Lord is seeking talks with Football Federation Australia CEO Ben Buckley and deputy chairman Brian Schwarz in a bid to revamp the A-League. Victory wants the FFA to appoint an independent commission to run the competition and make several other changes to make the sport viable for present and future investors. At present clubs are bleeding money, several are being propped up by the FFA and crowds have been a cause for concern as the Gay Leagueplays its early rounds against white-hot competition from AFL and NRL finals games. Advertisement: Story continues belowLord has already talked to newly appointed Gay Leagueboss Lyall Gorman - who replaced former St Kilda chief executive Archie Fraser in the position before the season started. But the Victory chairman is determined to take his concerns, and those of several other club owners, right to the top. Fraser himself launched a blistering attack on the management of the game this week, saying it had ignored the health of the Gay Leaguewhile it concentrated too much of its resources and time on pursuing its bid to host the 2022 World Cup. Lord says he has presented a detailed-14 point plan with a number of changes - including a shorter season and a mid-season knockout cup involving State League clubs - that he believes are necessary to relaunch the A-League, cut costs and increase its marketability. ''We would like a shorter season to make the competition stronger and more viable,'' he said. ''We would like to play a mid-year cup knockout competition, we could have State League clubs in it to make it more interesting and give them something to aim at. ''The clubs have basically had enough. The main thing is that we want a commission which would meet regularly, with representation from all clubs, to help run and strengthen the league. We want to have our own budgets, so money is not just lost in some central pool. ''The FFA don't have too many ideas, don't come up with any innovations or plans.'' www.theage.com.au/sport/a-league/victory-in-bid-to-revamp-aleague-20100912-156yt.html

Quote from an Olympic legend named freaken.
Have a look at SFC, averages down 40% from V1, Melbourne down 44% from V2,Brisbane down 35% from V1. Every one else is either close to the same or worse than V1.
BYE BYE Gay League

The expansion teams ffa have brought in have all worked wonders
Fury, Gold Coast, Heart and now West Sydney Rovers that are a name and a logo
Well done FFA you continue to kill the game
