Long year for Valentine if their just scrapping past ZPL teams. Luck no relegation this year
I think you'll find Dudley would beat most New-FM teams and provide a decent challenge to the bottom half of NPL. They're a strong squad.Quote:

Half of the NEW-FM teams and probably 1-2 NPL teams the shouldn't be there, only there to make numbers because their facilities are nice.
Until we have true PRO/REL all the way from NPL to ZL3, we will never truly have competitive competitions in NPL/NEW-FM.

Winners will go through the the final qualifying weekend (along with two Northern Zone team) played over the June long-weekend.
My tips:
CCB
Edgeworth
Adamstown
Weston
Magic
Jaffas
Hats off to Edgy
Have announced that entry to Wednesday nights FFA cup game against Valo will be free
But again Azzurri score low marks, they have announced that their FFA cup game v Lakes will have a $5 entry fee
Anyway that makes the decision easy
Off to Jack for a nights entertainment, couple of beers, bacon and egg roll, nice one Edgy
With the money they rumoured to be paying Ljubo, i am amazed it's only $5 entry. Really poor form from Charlestown.Quote:

This is why I won't go to any NPL club charging an entry fee for FFA Cup games against non a-league club.Quote:

Just goes to show which clubs are looking for a cash grab rather than to showcase the football they have to offer really.
Weston have advised that they will have free entry on Wednesday night. Thornton however are charging $5 against Magic. Maybe that’s a tactic to keep their supporters away.Quote:

Like I said, couple of beers, a feed and watch some good soccer
Spirit of the cup
I for one will be going to watch the Terrace boys take on Adamstown can guarantee they will not be charging money for the game. ( not sure how they could if they wanted to with two entireties to the ground, 3 if if you come via boat).
A tip to anyone making that trip byo chair/ blanket and dress warm it gets rather cold out that way.
Half Time Terrace V Adamstown
0-1
Terrace had the better of the chances, Town caught Terrace napping of a throw and made them pay.
Any other scores?
Charlestown 3 def Lakes 1
Edgy 1 def Valentine
Olympic 2 def Weston 0
Buds were 3 nil up
Full Time Terrace V Adamstown
0-3
Great effort from the lads, quality in the final 3rd in the end was the difference
Good showing from Terrace, well done representing league one
Agreed. Really good effort from terrace.Quote:

Port United FC vs Lambton Jaffas @ 3:00pm
Boambee Bombers FC vs Charlestown City Blues @ 5:30pm
All games played on the 9th of June at the Lake Macquarie Regional Football Facility.
Should either Port United or Boambee Bombers win, the Round 7 game they are in will be played on Monday 11 June, however if no Northern Zone teams advance in Round 6 then the next round will be played on either 12 or 13 June.
So how much are Azzurri charging for admission this round??Quote:

To me looks like one game ea on the Saturday and then backing up on the Tuesday or Wednesday
No disrespect to north coast teams but I think all would agree this is most probable outcome
So the ****ers at Northern put any more seating in at their shit tip of a facility or it going to be the same joke of a venue as it was in recent years this Saturday??
No Member it’s still THE worst ground to watch at. Minimal seating, grandstands in the worst possible spot, next to no protection from weather. It’s crapQuote:

True, they have the best facilities. But giving them almost every fixture just creates a bigger divide for the rest.Quote:

And I agree, speers point is shit for viewing.
