we will loose

[Superdylan]

Actually really confident we can get up in this game. 2 very important home fixtures in a row to hopefully get us in the 6.

Jets will be absolutely fired up for this game after blowing the lead on Sunday night. We have also had a good record against the victory here in recent seasons and haven't been beaten against them here since season 5.

I'm actually thinking a 3-0 win to the jets (Tagz double and a Joel griffo goal) remembering we had our largest ever win the last home game we played. Bring it on!

[MFKS]

Like **** we will Q MAN

We are the Newcastle Jets who shit on our fans regularly with misfortune.

No way in the world will our finals fate be sealed in piss weak fashion like a loss at home 2 rounds out from the play offs. No we will win to fill us full of false hope and only to have those dreams shattered in an inept performance in the final round when it matters.

We are not fortunate enough to go quietly into the night capitulating the easy way with the least amount of suffering for the supporters. We do it the hardest way.
Add in the fact the FFA will probably be keen on seeing the top 6 battle go to the wire with Sydney winning of course you can expect some dodgy reffing to get us over the line if need be

GET ON US FOR THESE REASONS AS WE ARE SPECIALS THIS WEEKEND

[lquiquer]

win & win......FC win & win.... and we don't break the tradition. RM out.

jets 2...archie 1

Lose 1-3.
Taggart will score one but miss 10 one-on-one chances. Kennedy won't try and save any of their 3 goals.
It's great being a Jets supporter.

Need you to come back and play RB, Eags. Allow Brillante to come back centrally.

[GazFish35]

Im tipping a 15-0 loss.

BK to take the field and sit on the penalty spot on a bunnings chair for ninety minutes.

Gary Van Egmond – 16 matches (10 wins, 2 drawn and 4 losses = 62.5% win ratio)

quite commendable

Wouldn't it be amazing?
Eags is too busy fighting fires and saving defenseless kids/animals..
The bloke is bigger than the game. (But smaller in height than most things, hahaha)

[Jeterpool]

quite commendable

It's a pretty good record. However, broken down to Gary v1 to Gary v2

Gary v1 - 6-1-1, including a record of two wins against the season 2 dominating victory team

Gary v2 - 4-1-3. Not quite as good! However, that's still better than the others.

No excuses. Melb were in Japan last night… we ****ed up the first time they were depleted, surely not twice :/

Agree with your reasoning about the Jets. It is like them to string out the pain as much as possible.

Disagree with your reasoning re the FFA. The FFA want Sydney FC in the finals to maximise ticketing revenue in the finals, with a possible juicy final between WSW and Sydney FC if they can swing it. They won't care one bit what happens with regular season crowds as they don't get any of that money.

So for that reason, I am predicting that the FFA will kill it off early with some dodgy refereeing. Most probably through a send-off in the first 20 minutes of either Griffo, Zadkovich or Jaliens. They simply can't risk it against a depleted Melbourne Victory.

Strebre

I have always been a huge Strebre fan but have thought he's been rubbish this season, particularly when watching him ref the Jets. We won't get anything good out of him - he's no Ben Williams, but he's no good either.

Bon told me his favourite moment in football was Eags supplying his team he was coaching with old Mariners training jerseys. What a gypo

Fixed.
Don't go trying to tarnish me with your gypo rhetoric, mate..
