Brisbane United (@BrisbaneUnited) throws its hat in the ring for the #NSD. A really good concept, drawing on history but looking to the future. A real chance for Brisbane's football community to live up to its promise.
Very much grassroots-led, it has started off as a joint venture between Brisbane Strikers and Wynnum Wolves, with Virginia United also joining the fold. It’s open to other local clubs to join as well. More here: brisbaneunited.com.au
It’s not a dissimilar concept to the original Brisbane United, launched in 1991. Hence the throwback club badge.
And, of course, the team will play at Perry Park. brisbaneunited.com.au/perry-park-bri…
I’ve seen a lot of false dawns as a Brisbane football supporter, so I’m wary about getting too excited. But if this is done right, it’s going to be fantastic.

"Beijing Fortune International and Sports Club Culture" was said to have made a "million-dollar investment" in the Strikers.
A Google search for BFISCC on the day of the announcement had one result - the story about the announcement itself. A search today yields a similar result. ImageImage
An ASIC company extract shows no record of Elizabeth Wu (or "Xu" as per the bizarre attached image, sent out by the Brisbane Strikers on social media at the time) ever being a director. Image
