Ftball Federation Australia chief executive David Gallop has promised to expand the A-League to 12 teams, potentially in as few as two years, with promotion and relegation the long-term goal.But he would not say exactly when - and where - this would occur.Until very recently, growth was off the agenda for the next four years as FFA prioritised stabilising the 10 existing teams.But calls for wholesale change have been gaining traction, with Soccers coach Ange Postecoglou the latest high-profile figure to demand the governing body start catering for the sports massive growth in Australia.Gallop responded at the launch for the 2016-17 season by pledging to introduce two additional teams relatively quickly.Expansion will come sner rather than later, Gallop said on Tuesday in Sydney.Ten teams is not enough to have in our competition.We want to move to 12 teams relatively quickly.Importantly, people need to know they are on the horizon - theyre not being dismissed.The groundwork being done at the moment will put in a gd position to make those things successful when they do happen.Promotion and relegation was the ultimate prize, a move Gallop insisted was not in recognition of external pressure from FIFA and the Asian Ftball Confederation.That has no discernible time frame and, to do so, FFA would have to re-negotiate the clubs existing licences which run until 2034.Pushing sustainability into the existing 10 clubs, moving to a 12-team competition, investing in the tier below through things like the NPL and the FFA Cup, and then ultimately moving to a situation where promotion and relegation can happen, Gallop said.I would see expansion coming first. It could happen within that period (four years).Lets get some commercial deals in place, have a lk at the size of the pie and then assess the suitability of moving quicker to an expanded competition.A road map that puts us in that position could be two, three or four years.Everything hinges on money from a new TV deal.FFA will test the market in coming months after the September expiry of the exclusive negotiating period with incumbent rights holder Fox Sports.Free-to-air networks Seven, Nine and Ten were all said to be interested, while the organisation would welcome the involvement of new English Premier League rights owners Optus and beIn Sports in any bidding war.Gallop stopped short of confirming that FFAs ambitious target of $80 million a year - double that of the current deal - still std.He said the fact some big Soccers games, the Asian Cup and the Asian Champions League would no longer be included could impact on the value.Weve got to be confident about our value; were not necessarily putting a figure on it, he said.It is a different package than what we sold last time, but we know the game is growing and its a sport where an investment from our broadcasters will directly lead to more money for clubs, which means better playing rosters and better quality.Cheap Custom Mavericks Jersey .1 million pounds ($61.2 million) on Saturday, giving the beleaguered English Premier League champions a major lift.

Rousey will put her perfect 8-0 record and hardware on the line against another undefeated fighter, 7-0 Sara McMann in the main event of UFC 170, which will be held at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas Nevada on February 22nd.Jimmy Wilde, for many Britains best ever boxer, first became world champion on this day [Dec. 18] 100 years ago.The little Welshman, who was just 5-ft-3 tall, was known as the The Mighty Atom and The Ghost with the Hammer in his Hand.Born in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales, the son of a coal miner, Wilde was sent to work in the pits from a young age. But he escaped a life underground when he started to box aged 16 in fairground bths.He turned professional later in his teens and went 93-0-1 before he lost his unbeaten record. He totalled 136 bouts, though it was probably far more, with just three recorded defeats.Wilde served as a sergeant PT instructor based at Aldershot during the First World War and in 1916 he put together a string of significant wins.Wilde had claimed a version of the world title when he stopped Joe Symonds earlier in 1916 and also had victories over Sid Smith and Tancy Lee, who he knocked out for the European title.But he was not recognised as the undisputed flyweight champion until he halted his Italian-American opponent the Young Zulu KKid -- whose real name was Frankie di Melfi -- in the 11th round at Holborn Stadium.ddddddddddddWilde hurt Kid with a left to the jaw and the American sunk to one knee after taking a pummelling on the ropes.

By the time he climbed into the ring to face Young Zulu Kid -- also known as Fighting Newsboy -- he had suffered only one defeat to Tancy Lee, which Wilde avenged in June 1916.The world flyweight champion toured America from December 1919 with 11 bouts in six months. Wilde held on to his world title until 1923, when he lost it to Filipino Pancho Villa in New York. After the seventh round knockout defeat, Wilde announced his retirement.Wilde died aged 76 in 1969, after being mugged a few years earlier at Cardiff railway station. ' ' '
