His arguments seem a bit nonsensical. I haven't made my mind up on this proposal but:

> Chairman Ivan Vuksich said his preference was to continue with the current summer national league format but with the addition of promotion-relegation to provide a pathway for the more ambitious winter clubs.

How is that supposed to work? Auckland City has one bad year and falls down to NRFL? Then what, share the players with Central? Or is the plan to protect Auckland City from relegation?

When an "ambitious" winter club promotes do they no longer play football in winter? Do they only play summer? What do the players do over winter? Go to other clubs? Sit out?

Sounds like he just re-pitched the superclubs idea in a different way.
