(To everyone sh*tting on WSW, please do remember that we’re not the only Sydney-based A-League Women’s club that this apparent lack of ground availability has affected in recent seasons. 😫) https://t.co/HP0iSObJ3P

It’s a huge injustice that if I can’t find the right ratio for mixed futsal we have to forfeit, but if a professional club can’t find a ground then they just get to try again at an unspecified time.

Clearly we need more than 11 football fields at the WSW HQ. First up, time to Annex the Blacktown Spartans field. https://t.co/loSLVLuD6g

This needs to be fact checked. The money from FIFA is prize money right, which would make it not taxable income. https://t.co/W8RmGQZCPy

Looks like WWC prize money could be taxable, according to this page on the Australian Taxation Office website (disclaimer: Beyond 90 is not in a position to offer taxation advice – if you have any queries about your personal or business taxation circumstances, please seek advice from a qualified professional).

Hands up if you have seen this happen in the 1st of men’s English football in the last decade..
POOR broadcast quality undermines the football quality.
FA player as a platform has done tremendous things for exposure, but this is simply unacceptable.
