    Views out at Wallsend may be from abit of a distance but personally I actually like the view from above where you can see the entire field clearly, gives a good view for watching team formations etc

    As far as grandstands go Maitland's aren't real flash and if they have to have a player's race it will be the world's longest.

    Also wallsend doesn't have the best lighting for night games very dark in the middle of the pitch as most of the lights are for the dog track

    'Apparently' is absolutely 100% inaccurate. NCC have not provided any funding to upgrade Alder Park and have made no commitment to doing so.

    1-1 Edgy and Jets at HT

    Hard fought game

    Edgy just shading it

    Edgy scored with a pen after 8 mins after Jets got caught in possession in the back 3rd. Legit pen when the attacker rounded the keeper and was taken out

    Penalty smashed low into the corner

    Jets levelled it on 30 mins when a good run down the right by Parties and a quality cross was headed home at the back stick by Tom Waller

    Nearly took the lead just before HT when Fogarty had an airy on a routine back pass

    Ball heading into the net and he was able to save his blushes by clearing it off the line with a desperate effort

    Jets doing Ok in this affair but I expect Edgy to win. Not the type of game EJ teams tend to grind a win out in

    56 mins gone

    Jets 2-1
    Edgy had a free kick deep in Jets half and pushed forward

    After a bit of pin ball between the sides it broke to the Jets who broke with the numbers and 70 metres from goal

    The forward run by Joice was found and he stayed cool and stroked home past Fogarty

    Aiden Gardiner for EDGY

    A richochet found him unmarked 25 yards out. Smashed a rocket into the top corner on the bouncing ball

    3-2 Edgy with another penalty smashed low to the corner. Keeper got a bit on it but too much power

    Dumb tackle from Jets near the by line giving a way a needless pen

    4-2 Moriyasu complete his hatty with a belter of a free kick from 30 yards in Injury time


    Swerved a mile keeper got nothing on it


    Rather bizarre finish to the game

    Jets were in control and comfortable until a belter of a shot from nowhere.
    Then a dumb penalty
    Then a belter of a goal

    Hats off to Edgy they pulled a win out when they probably didn't deserve it. Jets didn't do a hell of a lot wrong and somehow blew a 2-1 lead into a 4-2 loss on the back of 2 first class strikes and a dumb tackle

    Maitland easy 2 nil winners today, Azzurri were competitive but didn't bothe keeper much, they looked a whole lot more mobile with Johnson, Hughes and McGuire out, Ryan Clarke was my pick for Maitland constantly threatening defence with his speed, Oakley did well also, gibbons was Azzurrie's best

    Atown are putting tremendous effort into the youth structure at the club and a look at the youth tables will show signs of this .

    The NPL table is sadly at present with perhaps the exception of Edgeworth a ladder of who has the biggest wallet but hopefully this can change in years to come or at very least balance out a little .

    Your post is nonsense .
    I think your post has now been proven as the nonsense side of this argument

    If Adamstown were hellbent on youth development then why wasn't this young fella given a chance this weekend or do you only get one shot

    Or maybe it was what it was, Buds were short for midweek catch up game, give this kid a token 10 mins and tell him how much we value him.

    Wasn't at the game but if they were dropped, it appears todays result vindicated Piggos decision.
