What's wrong with it? A lot of the time when someone posts their thoughts or an idea all you high and mighty mods do is start nit picking. All I did was turn it back around. Even then all feverish could come up with was some over used gif. But I guess even mods gotta troll

Not sure why I'm carrying this on, but you said it was a good idea, Greenie asked you why you thought that.

So AJ says its a good idea. I ask why (in order to help form my opinion). He comes back with something my eight year old nephew would have come up with.  And I'm not a mod for the umpteenth time - I have never been able to log into admin in this new site to do anything.

ahh Greenie - you take using a gif pretty well, and I will take the Masters title, kicking your ass in our Fantasy Football league and West Ham sitting pretty in a Champions League place while Everton languish in mid table obscurity.
So, why is it a bad idea?  It seems to me getting young players involved in a competitive league is a good thing, but maybe i am not looking at this from Wharfies point of view.

again for some reason you presume I would be anti it . 
As far as getting consent for it -why could Central Fed want this team in there? And why would Capital clubs want what is essentially another Miramar team in there? The league is there for the clubs (you know - that thing you are meant to be a member of when you play) - so tell me why it's a 'good thing' for them?

get yourself to a TAB and get some league ones on for this afternoon.  We are still waiting for the games from Dom's bets from about 3 weeks ago to be played, so I think that covers tonight's football.
Clubs are over-rated.  I think the last one I registered for the Onslow junior club (Rama's for life).  Maybe the Central Fed will realise that it is good for the Phoenix, it helps to bring quality young players to the region and it makes the league more competitive.  Who knows, by needing to increase the league to keep the numbers even it may even get Wharfies in there (finally).

Pretty much what I was getting at. More young talent from over the country could come to Wellington, and by increasing the league to 12 you're eliminating a bye, and giving another club the chance to move into CL as well. It would be good for the Nix, good for NZ football. I don't really see why other clubs would be against this, unless in Napiers case where it might mean 2 more away games. Yeah it's new, yeah it's different, yeah people can be against change, but its still a good idea IMO

So long as they're treated exactly the same as every other club including relegation, and they play it straight so that it doesn't affect the league  then I think it's a great idea.

Our club policy is to advertise every year, for any position that is only a season long appointment.  Even if the incumbent has performed well, they know the role will be advertised, that policy is made clear every year.  This serves us 2 purposes:  1.  No coach can be seen as gaining favoritism from 'mates' on the committee etc, and just being re-appointed because of who you know as opposed to how well you performed the role.  2.  Good coaches can unexpectedly choose to move on, even after accepting a role.  By advertising, you get an insight into who is looking, and they will be the first numbers called on the cellphone if the situation arises.  Otherwise you are starting from scratch, so any head start is good one.
