When Melbourne City take the field next season, the history will show that it is a continuation of the Heart franchise. Our history will still be the same. We will still have beaten Victory in the first derby, Alex Terra will still have scored the best goal in the history of the A-League and we will still have had the worst coach in the history of the A-League.
David Smorgan took the presidency in 1997 and changed the name of Footscray to the Western Bulldogs. Do we consider them different clubs? No, because they still maintain the history and the same fans that have gone through thick and thin.
Unless the FFA comes out and publicly states that this is a brand new franchise, it will not be.
