Assassination or accidental?

[militiamon]

Soft, pfft. My childhood was spent at Bolton Point, high school years out west. At the age of ten, I'd had my first run in with local drug barons after I killed their dog. I got scars man... scarred for life. My missus is from Adelaide, so Maitland was the compromise.

This du's childhood was legit. BPG ain't nothin to f*** wit

[Grimario]

Assassination or accidental?

It attacked me when I was walking to school. I defended myself with the first thing I grabbed out of my bag which turned out to be a can of Rexona deodorant... which it happily bit into, exploding it and losing a portion of its face. It ended up getting put down.

That's bizarre Grim

I know mate, couldn't make it up. Was a huge rottweiler that they had basically abused the shit out of so it attacked anything that moved in their yard (protecting meth lab or hydro setup or whatever was the thing in the late 80's). Apparently got out one night and that's where it ran into me the next morning.

I was up almost out of BPt, Tarana Place or something. Most exciting thing I remember from living there was when Woodrising opened.
Sigh, Maitland :(

[q-money]

still can't believe you blew the dogs head off with a rexona can, really one of the great stories of our time

[slobsy]

once this pitbull from the housing commision across the road started attacking one of my neighbour poodles.

the owners were trying to break it up, they ended up breaking a tennis raquet, a cricket bat and a golf club over the dogs back, dog didnt even flinch.

obviously no on thought to use a deoderant can at the time.

poodle was toast obviously, pit bull was put down a short time later.

[slobsy]

Late to the party, but that is the best thing I have read on the new forum Grim.

[parksey]

pretty sure i've read that story before

[belchardo]

if you have, it was good enough to read again.

[Grimario]

pretty sure i've read that story before

Think I posted it before, quite likely in a thread where someone ragged on tronno and being almost gypos, bunch of tronno folk defended the place and I told the story of my humble upbringing.

Then two weeks later, the forum was wiped and we started again.

Oh shit.

this was actually about the west side vs the east side of the lake (is east side of lake newy?) to begin with :rof:

morisset is apart of macquarie football, which alongside hunter valley & newcastle football (memba those three logos our active support had painted on a tifo once?) makes up the southern district of nnsw - which is what the jets directly represent. unless we're saying the jerks only represent that tiny suburb directly known as Newcastle, in which they don't even play home games inside said suburb?

turns out half of this forum is from south-western lake mac :oops:

if t-west (and therefore jobe) is apart of "newy" and is the last recognizable part of newy, then i believe wangi is the cutoff line as rathmines (rem-job) & arcadia vale share the same postcode as t-west whereas wangi has it's own postcode.

[Bon]

Sorry mate, I've actually been out of the office today instead of being inside and lurking on here..

I agree totally!! Mo-town is the last line of defence..

So all Macquarie Football clubs are part of the Jets eh?

From Southern Lakes' website:

"Remember we need a Central Coast Mariner vs Brisbane Roar GF to qualify for the great opportunity to escort the Mariners on the pitch on the 21st April- so QUIETLY cheers for the roar on Friday to beat the Wanderers and get down to the game on Sun to help get the Mariners over the line for us on Sun!"

and

"Southern Lakes will be hosting Adam Kwasnik (Central Coast Mariner Star) ( :lol: )"

They obviously don't have anything to do with Newy, bar playing in the Interdistrict Competition.

Southern Lakes play out of Dora Ck.. (North of Mo-town.. I grew up just near there at Eraring)..
From what I understand they are just a junior club u6's to u14's, splintered off from Mo-town, with connections on the coast..

This is where the lines all get blurred.. When I played at Mo-town, Steve Eagleton was with us and he had connections with the Mariners.
He brought everyone free Mariners training strips (even told me I didn't have to wear it and could happily just spit on it instead) and even brought a few of the players to a training session - although I conveniently missed that one..
On the other hand, out at Gardo we are all Jets fans except for one bloke, Rabbit, who is a die-hard Mariners fan. (Fvck does he cop it...)
Guess I'm saying that just cause you have gypo stuff organised or put around you, doesn't make you a gypo.. :lol:

[Premy]

The bloke is a dead set closet jets fan owns a jets membership rumor has it he has been seen in the Newcastle bays of shitounge stadium too

Bloke from Kotara South????(hope not) in letters to the editor today, saying how good that members got to choose green and brown, and can we have it for home games also. The fact is, that 90% of members didn't vote for those colours, for whatever reason.

Edit- can we ban the member till he changes his avatar?

I didn't see the letter but the guy sounds like an absolute ledge whoever he is, got some good ideas there too.

Back in the KB days the club started with the emerald and cinnamon first strip. Eventually, because the players felt it was lucky, and with a little help from the sponsors, the gold away strip became the full time kit of preference.

Maybe it could happen again with enough public support - I still can't hack this red and blue shit !

So how did you cope all those years when we were the Breakers and then Cons Newcastle United in the NSL?? Both teams plsyed in red and blue

Newy teams may have changed colours a few times but we have been in the blue and red now for the majority of them in one form or another

[Jetmaster]

I hated our Breakers colours too, especially as they said it was to align ourselves with the Knights - no other bona fide reason.

No Newcastle team was those colours from the 19th century up until the Breakers formed - tis an old argument.

Red and blue was always the Newcastle league rep colours - that's probably why I really took to the gold.

[My2BobsWorth]

Only person who should be seen in green and brown is Arthur Daley

Yeah, I liked it when our front of shirt was sponsor free. we've never had a real sponsor though so It's farcical to put one on there IMO

I'm still not 100% on whether I like it or not. all promo images and this dark store photo fails to give me a true representation of what it looks like. Doesn't matter either way, i'll pick one up in the end of year sales and get it for a song rathr than the shit high prices they charge for shirts you can't wear anywhere fancy.

[russjaybee]

You're assuming the club will still be around at the end of the season :P

We had Centrebet at one stage.

I like our current sponsor logo tbh. Wish the home one was gold though.

But yeah, calcio il contro moderno or whatever it is.

[Rocknerd]

The club may not, but the merch will. and they'll flog it off cheap as after they realize no one wants to by souvenirs from a by gone era!

[militiamon]

OK, just saw hamma's confirmation on facebook:

I haven't even renewed my membership yet, but what is the fastest way in which one could acquire these kits?!

Edit: Waiting for sale prices, smh. I hope only XXL sizes are left.

[parksey]

Just go buy it from the merch store. $110 for non members or $100 for members

[militiamon]

Cheers parkway.

I expect to rise several tiers on the social ladder by purchasing one of these.


We dunnit!!!

Can confirm on behalf of Hamma that the e and c are legit. Purchased two earlier today and they are the tits

I don't mind it.

[pv4]

Jeez, I had worries about it and now they've been confirmed.

The shirt doesn't flow with the shorts at all.

I've never understood having the stripes for the bottom part of a kit, then one block colour for the rest of the back. Either continue the stripes the entire back, or have the entire back one colour (ie see our last years kit for stripes everywhere, or Wellingtons last year for entirely one block colour on back). The wide red strip on the shorts is unnecessarily wide. Have also never understood why socks need a big patch of a different colour on the calf - it's like a target or something!

In summary - home kit fail. Let's just enjoy the away days!

[Maito Mitch]

You've ruined it for me pv4, thanks pal :lol:

I actually really liked it til I read your post

I agree, would look much better if the back was all solid blue. Still an improvement on last years though I think

[pv4]

It's really odd what they've done - the front looks predominately red, whereas the back is mostly blue.

They should have went away from the stripes, and done something different.

I asked a media commentator from another sport once and I assume it carries over to football, media dislike stripes and therefore via their contacts in the sports codes they push for the area where the number is displayed to be a block of colour which contracts the number easily. So they can pick it up as easily as possible in a fast moving environment. In AFL Hawthorn are a good example of this, brown and yellow stripes but a large white box for the black number to be easily seen.

Have to agree on the socks... that is just an odd design with little meaning or visual design quality.

[GazFish35]

Stripes at base of back of shirt will not be an issue if the playing roster show ******* respect and tuck their shirts in.

Yellow card if not. Best rule ever.

Is it my eyesight or is the emerald hard to pick up in the distance, especially if your playing the game.Maybe shirts more white with the E&C stripes (cue rampage )

The Green looks a lot better than I thought it would.

Would like to see our supporters adopt this colour enmasse.

I know red and blue aren't the cities football colours. I've supported the club since 2006 when I started following football. I know the history of the green, I just found it weird considering its so different to any other strip (colourwise) we've had since the dawn of the A-League

Clearly (not really) not an issue for the WSW away.
Can't see the numbers at all on red and white hoops. Horrid for TV

[russjaybee]

I thought it looked, ok.

Not sold on Green as the primary colour for the playing strip, particularly one that is so close to the grass. Not sure if it was just due to the TV camera angles but at times it made it more difficult to identify players etc, not sure if it would have an impact on the pitch.

I felt it was a bit like it wasn't the Jets, because I'm not used to watching them play in green. Inauthentic was probably the wrong word

[militiamon]

Ok, so not only do Brisbane's away kits look like training kits, they also have some ridiculous built-in orange undershirts :rof:

[Superdylan]

Black shorts with their away kit really doesn't suit them IMO. Ok kit just would look alot better with orange shorts.

Popped up on twitter yesterday that Jets are ditching ISC to go with a new supplier.
And its not Adidas/Nike/Kappa, described as "left field" by Jimmy Gardiner

[pv4]

Does that mean the Knights would too? God I hope it's not Kooga or some rubbish.

I'd consider Kappa "left-field" tbh. Although I know CCM have been really disappointed with them, and are changing next season to an Adidas/Nike.

I'd consider the big ones to be Adidas & Nike, with nearly as big being Puma & Umbro.

Some Lotto kits I've seen have been pretty tidy. Macron have done great with Perth.

As long as we keep an E&C kit, and as long as management actually look into a gold keepers kit as opposed to CCM yellow, I'll be happy.

TBH I hated on ISC until this season, but I am really impressed with what they did design-and-material-wise for the e&c kit. I wouldn't have been greatly unhappy if we stuck with them. I assume the move is because we sold way more jerseys than ISC expected, and Jets HQ have found a better $$ deal elsewhere.

[boz-monaut]

left field is a pretty broad term and frankly rather annoying as far as attempting to guess

it could be anyone from the butcher who put together Lady Gaga's meat dress to Topper to Hot Tuna to Canterbury to Gorilla Sports

knowing how cheap the club have been so far I think the high water mark of the green isn't likely to be bettered

[parksey]

It'll be something awful

2XU make some quality cycling kit. If they turn their hand to Football I wouldn't be surprised if they do a good job of it.

I'll wait to see what they put out, but it might not be a bad choice.

[Thomas477]

Let's be honest here, our next 10 jerseys will be variations of blue/red stripes. It's not hard to **** that up.

My preference is one of the big 3, Nike, Adidas and Puma.

Bring back the gold

[Pico]

any kit change will need to be a manufacturer who also do heavy weight kits for the knights to use, best chance of getting someone with a football pedigree would be a larger company who also do European rugby clubs.

I like the look of the e and c kit but have been really disappointed with the quality for the price. I have worn it maybe 5 or 6 times and the threads are already coming apart in places.

Law 4 - "Each goalkeeper must wear colours that distinguish him from the other players, the referee and the assistant referees"

End of the day there is a fifa law which dictates that opposition goalkeepers must not clash with each other, or anyone else on the field.

This is a rule that nnsw regulate far better than a professional competition ffs

[Thomas477]

Can confirm in a game I reffed this year I made a keeper change his jersey due to a clash with the other keeper.

But he was going to be wearing yellow, so it could be seen as a public service.

Ain't much good the refs enforcing crap like this yet blatant things such as handballs in the box and blokes diving on the ground and using their arm to stop Heskeytime shooting are not refereed according to the rule book cause the blokes with the whistle are blind/cheats

Went the the superstore on derby day. I only got a large Away jersey coz they ran someone up on the phone they were holding it for and they didn't want it anymore. It was for dad for his birthday, hope it fits him as I would of preferred XL for him. It fits me great though.

Also is there a boot thread? Trying to find one but can't. I'm just after people's opinions on what boots they like that are no dearer than $150. I ha asics last year and they were great. Was thinking but going them again.

Weston - copas or die. Can get copas on prodirect for around 140. Think rebel are doing them for around 150 atm too.

They really did the new colours? I knew they were saying they were going to make a white/black inverse, but didn't think they'd actually go colours!

Copas are still IMO the best looking boots I've ever seen, are the comfiest I've ever worn & I feel like my touch etc is just way better when I wear them compared to my Nike metals (the black/white Nikes that every 2006 Socceroo cept Harry wore) or any other boot.
