Yep they despise traditional clubs, everything they do has to be new and created out of thin air. Call me cynical but I think the ffa wants south Melbourne bidding for a license whenever possible, every time expansion talk comes up we get the ball rolling for them, they're basically using our history and legacy to drum up expansion talk, just so a few plastic entities can come to the party after us.
just look at the past week, we declare interest in bidding..actual legitimate interest, then in the days that follow you get these pipe dream ideas from Geelong and south east Melbourne ( car jacking central)...every single time this topic comes up we do half the promotional work for these wankers.
what they don't realise is that a south Melbourne in the A league could be a game changer on many levels, people might actually start believeing that they aren't a pack of racists, and that perhaps a 2nd division and pro/relegation is an idea they could go for...clubs will start thinking if south can why can't we, instead we are gonna get clones of the same bat s%$#! boring 10 franchises we have now.
