Is it because a joint FIFA/AFC delegation will be in town this week to push the barrow for a second division with promotion and relegation and the FFA simply want to be seen to be doing something? Maybe. Does it matter what the motivation is? Not at all. What matters is that the pressure for a second-tier is building to fever pitch, both internally and externally, and the FFA can’t keep sticking their head in the sand hoping it will go away. It won’t.
