Canberra A-League bid is up and running


The Canberra A-League bid is up and running. Rejoice!


Talking to various people around town today it seems there has been excellent progress made with the bid.


This bid will bring the community and business groups together with the aim of not just getting a team into the A-League, oh no this bid wants more.


This Canberra team would aim to win the A-League, take on Asia's best in the Asian Champions League and who knows one day aim to play in the Fifa World Cup Championship.


A Canberra football team playing across Asia. Now you're talking.


So the bid sounds secretive. Well yes it is. Out of respect for those involved in the bid I have kept the report general. At this stage there is a bid coming and things are progressing very well.


When details are further advanced, which should not be long, more information will be released.


So football fans of Canberra rejoice and you can show your support here by adding a comment of support.


Would you like to see an A-League team in Canberra?

Thats great news! I'd love an A-League team in Canberra. I was one of th masochists who followed the Cosmos, who seemed rushed into the NSL without much thought of how to actually engage with Canberrans. The Perth Glory recieved a license at the same time, but took an extra year to build and develop before they entered the league, and the difference in approach really showed.
