If true, I am sure that Gallop will have plenty of metrics and get our of jail cards up his sleeve for the journey.

I just hope that shortly after the license is announced, that the fine print is also disclosed.

Absolutely, since they said licencing would be an ongoing process.

I think the individual  "fine print" for Welnix as to the "having to keep our game up at all times" condition is nonsense. As we've seen in the past years a licence can be withdrawn from a club anytime FFA deems it necessary, rather than waiting for it to lapse and then just not renew it. It happened with NQ Fury and (unless I am wrong) Gold Coast Utd.  So I do not think our fine print will be any different to what it has been so far for us or others - but if it is, then it will have to do with money.

Personally I think the individual  "fine print" for Welnix as to the "having to keep our game up at all times" condition is a lot of nonsense. As we've seen in the past years a licence can be withdrawn from a club anytime FFA deems it necessary, rather than waiting for it to lapse and then just not renew it. It happened with NQ Fury and (unless I am wrong) Gold Coast Utd.  ISo  do not think our fine print needs to be any different to what it has been so far - but if there is a "different fine print" then it will have to do with money.
