Fiji Football Association Announces New Format For Future Tournaments

"Change A Necessity."

Keeping pace with the changing face of football played in Fiji, the Fiji Football Association (FFA) President, Dr. Sahu Khan has released details of a new game format for future soccer tournaments.

The new format would see the tournaments being played played over a two week period. The first week of the tournaments would allow the teams scheduled to play each other to submit their team list to the referees who would stand around the two team lists and guard it for 60minutes. After the 60 minutes waiting period, the two challenging teams would be allowed to file protests based on the team list of the opposing teams. 

Dr. Khan stated that this new format would save players and teams time and money and most importantly weather conditions would mean for nothing. He further revealed that the team list would be shown on the big screen so all spectators can see it and cheer for their team. 

“We are also in talks with a television station for an exclusive coverage of this format. It’s something new and we got the idea for this format after seeing so many protests in the Inter District Championship. However let me state that the ticket pricing would stay the same,” Dr. Khan added

Finally responding to a query if this new format would be successful, Dr. Khan released survey data which revealed that the target group for this new format is the arseholes. According to the survey data, a large number of arseholes favored results where the winners are declared thru protests instead of playing physically on the field.

In other news, Fiji Prime Minister, Frank Bainimarama has declared that he will make it impossible for the Vanuatu Prime Minister to attend the MSG meeting by holding it on the moon.
