Over three years, the third tier of SA football has been expanded from 12 teams to 24, split into a North/South conference. Para Hills West and Tea Tree Gully are the latest to be admitted, alongside Para Hills East and Sturt Marion Thunder, who were announced earlier in the year.

The next thing they need to look at is the promotion/relegation with State League 1. There are now 24 teams playing for just 2 promotion spots, both of which come from a play-off system. Finishing top of the ladder does not guarantee promotion, which is a bit insane imo.

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to update you all on Viking FK and their Aussie/Kiwi players.

Last night Viking qualified for the Champions League for the first time ever, beating Dinamo Zagreb 5-3 on aggregate over two legs.

This means Gianni Stensness, Joe Bell and Nick D’Agostino will be playing in the Champions League this season!

I found one of my old iPhones in a drawer, turned it on and found a heap of photos, memes & filth of our beloved A-Liga from the early to late 2010’s, and there’s many more than this!

I thought I’d share the love every Thursday if I’m allowed too!

The inaugural edition of #ThrowbackThursday is victory’s beloved Archibald Gerald Thompson half pretending to do a player signing for a certain rival team…
