What do you mean they have it worse??
They may have had 3 shit years on the trot but dont forget they made the playoffs in the last 5 years and got some wins and made it to a GF qualifier
At least their fans had the dream of winning it all
When the **** have we even got close to making the ****ing semis seriously???
Because of the title of this thread.
I have no time for the Knights, their moronic old fans, their drug culture, their "we own this city" attitude, their "we wuz robbed" whining when they lose and their inability to sort themselves out without saying they were wrong. And because of them we lost our colours.
Wests can do better - I would vote "yes" for an entirely new NRL franchise in Newcastle. The old one has too much baggage.
The only people that go to Wests are fat chicks and blokes to lazy to have a wank.
So, reading the Herald this morning you can vote no, but how they decide the result is clear as mud.
* You must attend a club to vote personally and must live in the region (that's over half the members gone already).
* Knights fans can vote if they stump up $12 on the day to join.
* There is no members forum or debate beforehand (remember the Hunter Mariners rallies?)
* There is no set percentage for a result - that will be decided AFTER the vote is in and depends on the numbers
* Yet to decide what a "non-vote" means!
Sounds like a Jets job....bizarrely Wests look like they want to push this though quietly. Can see it getting up 3000 to 2000 and 90,000 members not voting.
How will Wests taking over the Knights affect the Jets with respect to the stadium ?
That's the bit that worries me.* There is no set percentage for a result - that will be decided AFTER the vote is in and depends on the numbers
I did vote "Yes", despite thinking I was going to vote "No". My logic was that though I'm not a fan at all of the sport, it makes their fans happy going and watching the team. If it were the Jets in this position, I'd want people to vote Yes because I think Wests will make them a success.

Did someone say plebiscite?
