2014 FFA Cup - Rd of 32 Newcastle Jets vs Perth Glory 5/8/14 k/off 730pm

[parksey]

Pretty unimpressed with our club helping this young bloke out in his hour of need.

Considering the bloke has actually struck it quite lucky (Not being smart) and was injured during work and will have his medical bills workos compo and couple of year contract to fall back on to help him out having us throw a few dollars more his way is really smart.

Tenzo opens at 12. Everyone on here is required to come and support it by buying at least 1 cold drink. More if you think that putting money in magics coffers is bad for northern NSW Football (not the association but the actual state of the game)*

Im hoping to have atleast 7 cold drinks.




* May not actually represent my view, however if it gets more of you along to support the tenzo then so be it!

Im hoping to have atleast 7 cold drinks.

Thwaite has just been added to the All Stars team so that's another one missing for them.

Parisi

that dura own goal still would be one of the funnest nights at turton road.

poured rain all game and 11k rocked up on memory as well.

Rather odd as I bought one a week ago and my GA number was in the 300's

[furns]

yep, now we are with ticketmaster, those numbers are meaningless. Many formulas have been attempted to try to explain the meanings of the PAX numbers, all of them useless.

[Blackmac79]

Anyone wanting to help out with tifo for tomorrow. I will be at the tenzo from 12.

Also anybody wishing to sign up as a member of the Squadron prior to the AGM will also be able to, I will have my shit together for once....

[The Dunster]

What size crowd should we expect for this game ? I'm going to guess it will be the usual pre-season type affair and guess 1800 or so.

[furns]

with it being a meaningful game against A-League opposition, i would be expecting bare minimum 2k. Anything over 3k would be great.

[sammydog]

I've still got to get my ticket, but I am going. Id hazard a guess there are a heap of lazy people like me that just haven't purchased yet and will leave it till the last minute.

[furns]

I would hate to think what the price for walkup tickets will be....

[sammydog]

$17 if I read correctly, but I was indenting to buy and print it off myself to save enough for part of a beer.

Considering it was 1500 last week Magic V Olympic you would expect a much larger turn out considering the size of the Jets support add in the HAL opponent and also the Griff factor.

We don't get 3k then questions need to be asked as to why

[sammydog]

Whats the ground capacity?

[Grimario]

Whats the ground capacity?

http://www.ultimatealeague.com/stadi...?stadium_id=66

Says 1,000... then says highest attendance 4,000.

Magic wiki page says 3,500
Soccerway says 1,000
worldfootball.net says 10,000

[sammydog]

I'd heard 4,500 but I'd have thought you could pack more in.

If 3,000 turn up though, it should still be a decent atmosphere.

To be fair though, we could get 10k and you'd still blow up about something.

[MFKS]

Considering how many fans we have, this being the first time in the comp, this being the first time for most to see Jeronimo Steele etc, that we are playing HAL opponent and Magic were able to get 1.5k for a game against a no name Queensland State side I think it ain't asking too much for us to have 3k there tomorrow night
