[Jeterpool]

Geez it's nice not being in these qualifiers

[plague]

I'm loving these qualifiers.


Eat it gypos.


Hahahahahaha


Hail Griff!!!!

[Jeterpool]

Taggz scoring too. Chef kiss

It's written in the rules that the Jets must play the Glory in this cup always. Let it now be so

[Jeterpool]

Draw is currently being streamed on Football Australia YouTube.

All fluff so far - no actual draw made

[Jetmaster]

These guys are fools.

An FA Cup draw show in the UK takes 15 mins.

[Jeterpool]

We've drawn Adelaide (again) at home.

This is the 11th time in the competition proper we have drawn an A-League team, the 4th time we have played Adelaide.

We have lost all 3 of those matches v Adelaide previously.

So amateurish, isn't it. Screams Australian Football all over.

Not only the two twits hosting but sitting on what looked like an old lounge with laptops on their gut with a cheap "Front Bar" set looked pathetic.

Add to that the sound issues and giggling.

We are trying to create this new football "culture" and it grates.

At least when the Scots get a drunk celeb on it only takes three minutes.....

[Jeterpool]

Certainly lots of change there, with some stability with us in place as well. That said, new coaches for both teams brings much unknown to it

Cheers for the link 2BW. The last two home games have been at Maitland, and we're yet to win there. Along with never beating Adelaide in the cup....good omens.

[Bremsstrahlung]

Bit of a buzz kill the 2 Newcastle teams play eachother.

At least one will reach the quarter finals.

[My2BobsWorth]

Hopefully the lighting at No.2 is up to scratch. Watched a few Cup games lately that must have been borderline on the LUX scale

[Jetmaster]

Been said before that No 2 is not up to TV standard. That said the TV coverage so far borders on home video quality so I don't think we will notice.

[Jetmaster]

Noticed today that the game is the P+ only one that week, await FB madness from the whingers trying to find it that night.

Maybe the lights are ok.

Last game was on youtube? So not even that?

[Jetmaster]

No YT for the P+ exclusive game....

Matchday Four

Wednesday, 13 August

Cooks Hill United v Newcastle Jets
Kick-off: 7:30pm AEST
Location: No. 2 Sportsground, Newcastle West NSW
Broadcast: Paramount+ exclusive

South Melbourne v Auckland FC
Kick-off: 7:30pm AEST
Location: Lakeside Stadium, Albert Park VIC
Broadcast: 10 Play and FA YouTube

Avondale FC v APIA Leichhardt
Kick-off: 7:30pm AEST
Location: Green Gully Reserve, Keilor Downs VIC
Broadcast: 10 Play and FA YouTube

The good thing about the P+ coverage is it is better quality (except for the commentary) and they go round the other games regularly.

[My2BobsWorth]

Not a bad game last night between the Metrostars and Cows. Metro could have pinched it with some better finishing. One to watch out for in coming years

[belchardo]

I thought the nunwading/phoenix game was good value.

[mge61]

Possible cupset brewing with Heidelberg at the moment

[My2BobsWorth]

Another good game, Wonderers were rubbish, couldn't win with skill so reverted to diving and trying to intimidate the match officials, pathetic really. Well done to Heidelberg, deserved the win

Avondale could be the dark horse this year

[Jeterpool]

Is anyone aware what would occur if a non A-League club won the cup? I assume they'd reach Asian competitions in that case, yeah?

Also be interesting if you have a Wellington/Auckland semi-final. Would mean that whoever played them in the final would reach Asia by default.

Yes and yes

[Jetmaster]

I read somewhere yesterday that the Asian Cup spot would go to the highest placed Australian A-League team.

If true and the cards fall right either Macarthur or the Jets could qualify just by making the semi-final.

For this reason I fear a Smurf win against Auckland is "guaranteed".

[My2BobsWorth]

Haven't seen anything stipulating the Australian team must be A league. The highest placed Australian team gains entry

[My2BobsWorth]

I thought Avondale might be the dark horse this year but after this round I'm swapping to Heidelberg. Beat Wanderers 3-0, then beat Phoenix 4-0. The impressive thing is, no goals have been scored against them. It's a tough road for the Jets from here, with the Bulls, who have won 2 of the last 3 Cups, then Avondale, who are good enough to beat some A league teams. Just glad Heidelberg are on the other side of the draw

Into unknown territory

[Jeterpool]

Great weekend for watching football ahead! Nice to still be interested this late in the competition.

Motivation for this team should not be an issue - there's a spot in the cup final on the line!

[Jetmaster]

So it's Heidelberg in one spot....sucks to Corica.

[Jeterpool]

I quite enjoyed that match. Very tight fixture

[plague]

The amount of commentators suggesting an all NPL final as a 'legitimate possibility' tells me they are all highly educated and experienced in the history of the Jets.

[My2BobsWorth]

I quite enjoyed that match. Very tight fixture
I thought the first half was a tad slow JP,typical Corica play, but thoroughly enjoyed the second half

[Jeterpool]

Should know by the end of the day where the Final will be played.

[Jeterpool]

Despite their promises, the FA are yet to deliver

[baldrick]

No news is good news ?

[Retro Jet]

My guess is they're desperately trying to find a suitable venue in Melbourne. :popcorn:

[evolution]

It?s at Lakeside Stadium.

[plague]

Hahahahahahah just saw that.

Double eff aye with another middle finger to Con.

**** em.

[Jeterpool]

**** the FFA

[Bon]

Seriously, so shit..

[Jetmaster]

So not expecting to make money from it. Cheap tix to try to bump up the crowd. I hate the game more each day.

[evolution]

Flights are booked, fk that hurt the bank balance.

We only play in a final once every decade so can?t miss it.

[ForeverRed]

Being the long weekend flight costs would be ridiculous, mini bus anyone

[Jetmaster]

Bugger that - not made of money. And you will get a better view on the TV compared to that "field".

I doubt we'll get more that 200 down of our lot there - curry and a bottle of red on the sofa for me thanks!

[Bremsstrahlung]

Feels like FA have backed Heidelberg to win.

Would be absolute scenes there if they win - non event if they don’t. Probably a bunch of flares. Etc

Here, we’d get a decent crowd if marketed properly.

[Retro Jet]

My guess is they're desperately trying to find a suitable venue in Melbourne. :popcorn:

Well, this aged quickly. I was being quite facetious at the time. I really thought common sense would prevail. Our football governing bodies :facepalm:
From games thst should have been played in Darwin (Scotland 1985) to sh!t like this...

If CCM became sCCuM
FA is now FoAd :soapbox:

[Jetmaster]

If Smurfs can't win the narrative will be an NPL side winning would be great for football....much like VAR, agents, transfer deadlines and club owners..mm..

[plague]

They've just announced the same VAR team from the Jets/Victory grand final are going to be working that night and in a massive shock Matthew Breeze has come out of retirement to ref one last jets game.

Starting to think the fix might be in lads......

[plague]

lemme just be the voice of reason/devils advocate here.



How many mainstream media stories get written about the Jets winning?


How many would get written if the fairy tale comes true for the Berg?

and how many get written if the crowd kicks off because NSL?


I know what the Double eff aye would be cheering for the most.

[Jetmaster]

The TV on P+ will be Melbun centric (Zappers, Archie an one other), 90% buildup on Heidelberg, what jobs they do, how much souvlaki they are cooking, proud history...etc etc. We will be the bad guys.

No clip on Youtube but there was a great day in 1980 when KB United beat high flying Heidelberg with a Graham Heys bicycle kick....do it again.

[ForeverRed]

Now they can stuff us over with a shit draw again, last years was a debacle but hey who cares about newcastle

Yep - "dog bites man" is not news, "man bites dog" is front page.

Or later in 1984 with 'diminutive striker' Derek Todd slotting one midway in the 1st half against the more fancied Melbourne Hrvatska.
Do THAT again. You only gotta win by 1. (But I'll take 3 or 4)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1984_NSL_Cup
It was a very weird format back then.
Don't care. We won the fkr!
:brrr:


Edit: HeidelShite game deets here:- http://www.ozfootball.net/ark/NSL/1980/Round25.html
They scored, but we broke their hearts. Keeping Gary Cole scoreless was some feat back then, too. (Btw, they toweled us up 4 zip down there)
Heys scored a brace! He's actually living back in (or around) Newy again.

[Couscous]

I'll travel for this one. Been too long since the last trophy.

I spoke to Graham on Sunday about the game, he remembers it well

I was doing some homework on previous cup exploits of Newcastle-based teams.
Your name came up on a team sheet v Ncle Rosebuds (March 2nd, 1985)
Your brother? was in the team too.

And for the record, according to the stats here:- http://www.ozfootball.net/ark/FFACUP/2025FFACupResults.html
Cookers v Jets is so far the highest crowd from the 2 knock out games listed and the Round 32 onwards.
The Edensor Pk rangers 'estimated' 4K v Shitney - next closest...
After that it's daylight.

That?s correct, I got MOM in a beaten team
