Though when you put it into footballing perspective. i would like to know the quality of the newcastle between the ages 10-16 per 1000kids. I think the newcastle area would be up there. What is happening with the developemtn around 14+ ages?
^ I think our kids go alright. Last season Ch/town U14'S went to Kanga Cup in ACT and Lakes U14's Blue went and played Sydney Youth Cup. Both teams went very well.

We have a National team more population and a Federation behind us and produce nothing.
To say we are doing alright is half the problem. Denial that there is a big problem. Far too many in Newy whinge when we get left behind others and struggle but refuse to do what is required to be the best
can we open up another thread to discuss how MKFS is so disappointed and how he is going to tell us how to change football in Newcastle,Quote:

last one for the ones who want to change the game in Newcastle,
stop setting the bar to high, it's not the aleague and never will be and if don't like it as said in earlier post don't go..........
we have produced some good footballers over the years and if you guage success on the amount of internationals we produce or dont, well get a life.
enough said cheers
And not only the long ball but copious amounts of long throws too.......:blush:Quote:

you were the one saying we were making up the problems before magic cos we didnt want to play- surely this supports that we were telling the truth you peanut. if our field was ok to play you probably would be on here squawking about it proving your point.
So what are you doing to effect change Member ?.Quote:

Not at all BR. However, at times you should consider thinking a little more before hacking off on your keyboard. It would certainly do Southy far more justice...Quote:

Agree to an extent. Easily baited, but who can blame him when 90% of posts are having a go/personal dig.
Granted, he does bring it upon himself with some comments. But some are reasonable, and still draw the same attention.
/mediation.
Maybe he should monitor the amount of 'subtle' comments that he throws out there. Arguably with some of his comments, he could quite easily be considered to be one of the largest egos in the Local Forum. Adios........Quote:

and i think the major criteria for promotion should be the best team- which jaffas clearly were last year.
you seem to have some major beef with jaffas c-stain. get over it and move on, you are coming across really pathetic. its not gonna affect the season to any great degree, who do you support if you dont mind me asking? you seem to be really obsessed with lambton bro
you get get super defensive and start bagging people when they voice their opinion, very similar as you do amazing isn't it?Quote:

Well there goes my late night entertainment I even had the pop-corn in the microwave. Guess ill just get back to the Buddha and Lumberjack love affair in the ZL1 thread
DT = Drainage Trouble. Indeed you were the best team but not the best facility, but thats just how it goes. It may not effect your season but there could be nothing worse than mid week games for a team, on the other hand a mid week game is great if you want to get out and watch some team play, albeit a team worth watching.Quote:

Not to mention complaining about how other teams are playing the long ball and defending his own team and yet clearly his team seems to be the most guilty of it. Play the ball from the backs not boot it forward to the opposing backs and you will be amazed and how much our game will be entertaining.Quote:

we've never claimed to have the best facility, its improving out of sight every season though. sorry to hear you have a gripe with jaffas :''(Quote:

Im sure Jaffs have contributed but i cant figure out where, maybe the ticket box? Oh and i do realise you have spent dollars on players, probably big dollars, only a guess. The criteria should not solely be based on the best team and i believe in previous years teams have been denied access to higher leagues because of poor facilities, but i mean your pitch is the only problem right? All the other improvements that NCC built look excellent.Quote:
