Very worrying signs by the results in this league. A couple of champ clubs couldn't beat 2nd string ppl teams. Also South East copping 14 goals. Time for a complete new structure through the state as the game isn't improving at all
Walter.
Do you know or understand why Nelson has withdrawn from this seasons competition in both championship sides?
Seems like it might be the end of Nelson as we know them.
Sad to see that Nelson are no longer part of the championship. They were always a hard team to break down and never an easy game always played for each other. If this is the first casualty from the new structures then FT need to apologise to Nelson as how was this supposed to work if some NPl clubs had to find an extra team.
There is not enough players going around to make this work.
Surely after seven years the NPL should be a stand alone competition for seniors and reserves and not this shit we see at the moment. Ft job is to administer and grow the game not see the demise of clubs due to their decision making.
What happen in the Eagles v South East game. There has been a lot of hype about South East this year with their recruitment and the development of players and that they have improved. Looking at the results Eagles are a good team but not a top 3 side and don't have Sammy L this year. 20-0 results are on the cards for some of the top teams in the championship against South East if they have injuries.
Shane you are definitely right about FT decision making. Buckling under pressure from the Northern clubs. There is no way promotion can be made in the new league.
FT will make a decision that we keep the current NPL clubs will be it as the new structures will see to that.

I heard South East gave up, 11 goal second half
7.44 pm.
The NPL second strong sides as you describe them should
defeat the Champ league side at this early stage.
Many of them would have trained with their NPL squad
all preseason. Wait until the Champ league sides get fitter and more games in.
You must lead an interesting life.
Very naive comment mate. You have no clue. Lets add up the points of the 5 NPL clubs and the 7 other clubs come seasons end. I would bet a dollar or 2 on the NPL total.

8.45 pm. As I said before you must lead an interesting life.
I didn’t suggest that all Champ clubs will have more points
than the NPL clubs. I suggested nothing of the sort you knob.
I guarantee that the Champ side will improve , as will the NPL clubs.
I didn’t suggest the NPL clubs wouldn’t either.
The NPL clubs will be better at this time of year as many of them would have
trained with their senior side until now.
That is all I suggested.
You sound like the one who does not know or understand much Mr Naive!
