Y'all come back, ya hear.

Change without learning from lessons from the past ends up in failure and extra cost and pain to the established ffsa clubs that pay a big dollar back to the ffsa to field their teams.

As others have posted you cannot run a senior club on s 100 spectators but you can from junior fees charged.

I blame the state controlling bodies for allowing this mess to flourish eg high junior fees to find senior soccer because senior clubs are charged huge affiliation fees. If you are a CEO in these controlling bodies you need to do something or step down please!!!
In my opinion it is extortion of children because their parents are forced to pay high fees for junior colt soccer participation.
I am not blaming clubs here because they are forced to do what they do for survival.

Yes here he goes again. Several people have suggested that instead of raving on about this on the FN forum, that he actually does something constructive about it. For example, talking to the clubs, speaking to FFA/FFSA, responding to FFA surveys which are asking the football community for feedback,researching the extent of the problem etc. Of course, as always, he dismisses everyone's point of view and advice.
