There’s a perfect storm brewing in the world of professional sport and the A-League has been one of the first competitions in Australia to feel the full effect.
Aaron Mooy’s deadline-day move to Mat Ryan’s Brighton and Hove Albion ensured the Socceroos’ English Premier League contingent remained at a measly two for the 2019-20 season.
The news that clubs are planning to actually market the A-League this year is a welcome development for a competition that has wasted the last few seasons.
When Melbourne City became Melbourne City, the fortunes of the southern capital’s second team appeared destined to change.
The Premier League is back and thanks to catch-up streaming there are no doubt a few fans in Australia who didn’t watch a minute of this weekend’s action live.
Whisper it quietly around a code that has lurched from crisis to crisis in recent years, but there’s suddenly an air of optimism as the new A-League season dawns.

No doubt the recalcitrant little brat that is the A-League will be shortly called to the headmaster’s office at Fox Sports and asked to explain itself.

It’s a wonder former Socceroos coach Ange Postecoglou doesn’t have Mitch Langerak’s number on speed dial because he could sure use a decent goalkeeper.
Western United will be the best thing to happen to the A-League this season in a competition that’s been crying out for new storylines for years.
On Tuesday I hypothesised on the potential positives for 2019-20 of those A-League clubs looking to return to the top six.
Supporting your football team as they battle through a dry run can sometimes be an experience similar to visiting the dentist and getting some major and obtrusive work done.
The FFA Cup may signal the start of a brand new season but we’re still stuck with the same old problem of some teams having to host home ties in neutral venues.
The return of Robbie Kruse to Melbourne Victory could very well be marketed as Robbie’s Redemption Tour.
I picked up the above quote from a Victory fan on social media, as rumours brewed around their potential new signing. Now, it is official.
