But Welnix aren't idiots and if they think the independent A-League isn't likely, or at least not until further down the road, then cutting their losses makes sense. The lack of a blanket denial suggests that the deal not only exists, but that they're still waiting to see how things (like the FFA's supposed concerns) play out. This is not the kind of thing where you don't dignify it with an answer, either David Gallop is lying, or this story has legs.
