Again women's football is going further backwards. The major signing of the new Head Coach of Women's Football is a farce. He was appointed to this important role after being told by West Adelaide Club that he is no longer required. He has also caused issues as an assistant coach in the past with th...

Following from my previous comments, it's true that there will be no relegation. The FFSA are currently looking at expanding the competition to a 10-12 team comp. This means opportunities for state league clubs to enter the WNPL. How the FFSA are going to manage the competition with extra teams is s...

Apparently, there have been discussions taking place now in relation to the WNPL relegation policy. The inside story is that the relegation will not take place this year. It appears that the FFSA will keep the same teams next year regardless of the requirements. If this is to happen, it is an absolu...

It appears coming out of the soccer circles that there has been investigation into the new WNPL. It was discovered from the investigation that a high profile individual had been fully aware of the situation of a particular club prior to the season commencing that they could not not meet the criteria...

Watch this space.

Dont forget the other Carter.
Has a lot of influence.

South Adelaide also have the right to be included in the WNPL as they meet the criteria.

Sorry sportsbird , comets, no U15 so do not meet requirements for wnpl, other recent wrong statements made. (It appears Sturt Marion hierarchy have conceded they are unable to meet the criteria and have indicated they will withdraw from WNPL and re-nominate for the State League in 2016. The FFSA wi...

Seeing as Black Swan seems to have some knowledge of the clubs situations, I'd love to see sportsbird apologise to Metro as apparently she was completely wrong and has made unfounded accusations against that club. Not that it's the first time I've seen sportsbird make accusations that are completel...

I suppose Wendy carter might have something to do with Sturt marion not being kicked out. I dont know if its because she recruits sturt players to work for the ffsa not sure.

There are 4 teams that have failed to meet the criteria set by the FFSA. The FFSA made it quite categorically clear that any club that does not meet the criteria will not be permitted to enter the WNPL. 1. Sturt Marion - no under 17's & u11's 2. Metro - No u9's 3. ParaHills Knights - No u9's 4. ...

Adelaide city to take out the WNPL premiership

And the ffsa accepted that all clubs met the criteria.
Anyone else needs players.

It appears there has been a backflip from the FFSA by producing the schedules early for 2016. It was issued to stop the uncertainty from all clubs. The word now is the competition will go ahead regardless of any clubs not meeting the criteria by the first round. Apparently, the FFSA have concerns th...

It appears Sturt Marion hierarchy have conceded they are unable to meet the criteria and have indicated they will withdraw from WNPL and re-nominate for the State League in 2016. The FFSA will be notified as early as next week of their decision. Credit must be given to the Sturt Marion Board for mak...

Black Hawk agree with you 100%

Apparently, Sturt/Marion have had discussions with Cumberland to look at amalgamating in 2016. However, Cumberland have declined the offer and are playing the waiting game for Sturt/Marion to fold in the hope of gaining several players and a pitch. The likelihood of Sturt/Marion folding is inevitabl...

Megabonus, Im not complaining as it doesn't affect me. Just making people aware the issues currently developing. I'm not sure why you even commented about my comment as you are more concerned about my comment rather than supporting our local players. I am fully supportive of our local players and co...

Rumours have it that the local W League Lady Red players are unhappy that overseas & interstate players are being looked after financially while the locals do not get paid. I believe this issue will come to ahead after the completion of the season prior to the 2017 season. If this is true, then ...

Firstly, I would like to take this opportunity to express my excitement that the lady Reds were given the opportunity to play at Hindmarsh Stadium prior to the Adelaide United Game. It was just great for the women's game and especially for the players who played on the pitch. And for the people who ...

united 92 it seems i am the only one who cares about our local girls. none of you guys have discussed their progress on this forum or is it that the interstate and overseas players are not important as no-one knows them therefore no-one wants to discuss the lady reds. if that is the case then were i...

How did our local girls go. i know its only one or two girls playing in the side but still interested in how they went.
didnt see the game.

The Main Points is as follows with some main criteria below: 1. Field of Play & Team Amenities a) Perimeter Fencing - is no longer required 2. Spectators & other Venue Facilities a) Score Boards b) Car Parking c) Canteen & Bar 3. Teams & Coaching Requirements a) Senior Teams - Must ...

The FFSA have made it quite clear that clubs wishing to enter the new WNPL must meet all the criteria set by the association. The FFSA have also made it quite clear that no clubs will be given any exemptions under any circumstances. However, it is my understanding that approx 4 clubs who were given ...

totally agree with you united we stand.

Great to see the international and interstate players representing Adelaide international interstate united Football club. Well done to the Local players who did exceptionally well on the day. I think I saw only 2 or 3 local players on the pitch at anyone time. The future is looking bright for futur...

Sports bird, I count 8 players in Lady Reds who played NTC under Ross. Steer, Condon, Campagnale, abbey, peat, McNamara, Jenkin, Bentley. See (again) this w-league article: http://www.w-league.com.au/article/adelaide-united--season-preview--westfield-w-league-squad-for-2015-16-season/1gax3m2gimnd1w...

So many players leaving now that RA has left! Must be a sign of the quality of his coaching and how well respected he was among the playing group, that as soon as he left they did too. :wink: otto62, You are a funny person, unsure if you were joking or being serious. Players were leaving when RA wa...
