Hahahahahahah just saw that.
Double eff aye with another middle finger to Con.
**** em.
**** the FFA
Seriously, so shit..
So not expecting to make money from it. Cheap tix to try to bump up the crowd. I hate the game more each day.
Flights are booked, fk that hurt the bank balance.
We only play in a final once every decade so can?t miss it.
Being the long weekend flight costs would be ridiculous, mini bus anyone
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.
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:
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..
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......
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.
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.
Now they can stuff us over with a shit draw again, last years was a debacle but hey who cares about newcastle
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)

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