NPL 2026

Preston were on a suspended -3 hanging over them so that triggers strike 2.

That actually tribunal for what happened is next Tuesday, i suspect more points will go.

catch up fixture Preston Lions v Melbourne City now next Wednesday (not August 26th as initially scheduled).

If you're Preston do you seriously care at this point? They are 2 home wins away from hosting the Australia cup final. The lucrative $$$ are there for them right now.

Money received from the Aus Cup will most likely bring back the $100k lost revenue for the two games behind closed doors. Plus more fixtures in NPL finals = more revenue.

The crowd size v South and whoever in the semi will absolutely dwarf what you would have got against Bentleigh and Gully. We are talking sell outs here. You will comfortably eclipse the earning you missed in those.

Yeh i dont think thats possible, unless its delayed to the end of the month or early September.

 

[Beretta]

At least you didn't lose 3 points from a match you won 4:0 because you didn't field enough youth players.

such a stupid rule. Does that apply to all clubs in Canberra?

No. Some clubs have an exemption which is why the whole thing is such a farce.

Nobody likes anyone

Victory NPL side...

What a joke.

Come join NPL NSW lol

 

[Dinamo]

What a joke.

Come join NPL NSW lol

That would be the dream and a return to the past like in the late 80s and early 90s. I doubt NSW would let an ACT team compete in the league again though. Belconnen had a good run in the 2000s where they even won the league before they lost their licence.

No. Some clubs have an exemption which is why the whole thing is such a farce.

Wym? Is it the U23 rule which is nation-wide or some ACT specific rule?

 

[LFC]

Victory NPL side...

That’s mutual up here with the Al sides in OUR comp

 

[superpolska]

who's the most hated NPL club in Melbourne?

Avondale. But still most people don't care. Other states have hated clubs but it's not really a thing here.

 

[Brenton1986]

who's the most hated NPL club in Melbourne?

Heidelberg United right now ever since that Asian Football Confederation rejected their ACL Two ticket on Friday April 24th especially that they carried on the way they went about it on their club statements for 4-5 weeks after it was an absolute disgrace and pathetic on their part they handled it both radio and TV which earned this tag and their form as a result ever since gone down the toilet.

 

[southmelb]

Heidelberg arent relevant enough to genuinely be hated.
