I?d be more worried about Azzuri. Watched 11 blokes play for a draw from kick off. Never seen a bigger group of cats in my life

Great plan can't lose if you don't concede, only problem is they forgot that part of the plan
Almost as bad as their social media postsQuote:

I understand NPL clubs use these for training, however the priority should be to get the games completed. Northern or Newcastle football should step in and make a case for the above.
Just a thought..
Get out of here with that common sense!Quote:

Common sense would be to build our own synth pitches in NewcastleQuote:

Congratulations Newcastle Suns on winning the only silverware available this season. Everyone else pack up and see you all in 2025.Quote:

It's stating the obvious, but they further behind you get, it becomes a shit show with continuous wet weather.
I feel as though the further you fall behind in fixtures played the tougher it is to actually make up the points difference as well. It is easy to say go and win your 3 games in hand to get you back in the race but the reality of actually doing it is far harder. Especially when so many games are played in such close proximity. The midweek fixtures sometimes feel like more of a lottery results wise as well.Quote:
