A new broadcast agreement is likely to herald the end of the A-Leagues consolidation phase and might happen sooner than anticipated.The new season will kick off on October 7 with Brisbane hosting Melbourne Victory and FFA chief David Gallop holds a sliver of hope the deal will be inked before then.There is a window there but its now a slim one, he told reporters on Friday in Perth.League chiefs have made little attempt to hide their dismay at poor coverage and promotion from free-to-air (FTA) broadcaster SBS.A new agreement that would allow long-term broadcaster Fox Sports to on-sell part of the rights to a bigger commercial network could happen this month if the ducks line up.We are in an exclusive negotiating period with Fox Sports which expires at the end of September. Were in constructive dialogue, Gallop said.As we understand it, all the FTA networks are interested and those conversations are happening as well ... between the FTAs and Fox.If a deal isnt done before the end of Foxs exclusive window at the end of the month, Optus - which made a splash with a reported $63 million steal of English Premier League rights from Fox - could pounce again.Gallop said they were definitely interested.They have made a massive investment in EPL ... we cant actively talk to them during this period (of exclusivity) but they have indicated a strong appetite for the A-League.Clubs are hopeful of a significant value bump from the current $40m rights deal, which included previous Socceroos qualifiers and the 2015 Asian Cup.Beyond a deal, eyes will be raised further to where the league could grow.South Sydney, Auckland, Canberra and Geelong are all possible regions for new clubs.Gallop suggested they would be selected during the life of the next four-year deal and be in place for the following one.I would expect, in the next few years, we would have a more-precise timetable on when expansion will happen and where, he said.It will be an important moment in the A-Leagues growth but, like most sports in Australia, weve made mistakes with expansion in the past.For the clubs ... and the division of the pie more than 10 ways, we cant afford to make an expansion mistake.

Ron Dennis has stepped down as chairman and chief executive officer of the McLaren Technology Group following a shareholders meeting on Tuesday.Dennis, who has been involved with McLaren since 1980, has been placed on gardening leave until his contract expires in mid-January. Dennis had unsuccessfully tried to seek a High Court injunction to prevent a move from taking place.Dennis owns 25 percent of McLaren group; long-time business partner Mansour Ojjeh owns the other 25 percent, with Bahrains Mumtalakat investment fund holding the controlling 50. In a defiant statement confirming the news, Dennis said other shareholders had forced through his departure despite warnings of dire consequences.The statement said: I am disappointed that the representatives of TAG and Mumtalakat, the other main shareholders in McLaren, have forced through this decision to place me on gardening leave, despite the strong warnings from the rest at the management team about the potential consequences of their actions on the business.The grounds they have stated are entirely spurious; my management style is the same as it has always been and is one that has enabled McLaren to become an automotive and technology group that has won 20 Formula One world championships and grown into an ￡850 million a year business.Throughout that time I have worked closely with a series of talented colleagues to keep McLaren at the cutting edge of technology, to whom I will always be exxtremely grateful.ddddddddddddUltimately it has become clear to me through this process that neither TAG nor Mumtalakat share my vision for McLaren and its true growth potential. But my first concern is to the business I have built and to its 3,500 employees.Dennis will retain his shareholding in the group but his statement hints he already has plans beyond McLaren.?I will continue to use my significant shareholding in both companies and my seats on both boards to protect the interests and value of McLaren and help shape its future.In addition I intend to launch a new technology investment fund once my contractual commitments with McLaren expire.This will capitalise on my expertise, my financial resources, together with external investment to pursue the many commercial opportunities I have been altered in recent years but have been unable to take up while being so committed to the existing business.Dennis helped turn McLaren into a force in Formula One, spearheading several periods of dominance and winning multiple world championships. He played a pivotal role in securing Honda engines to replace Mercedes in 2015. However, that partnership has failed to live up to the iconic McLaren-Honda glory days of old.?Dennis was also unable to secure a title sponsor to replace Vodafone, which stopped its affiliationin 2013.
