WE DON'T DO WALKING AWAY !
The Championship Chronicles - The Jetstream's review of the 2007/08 season. www.newcastlefootball.net/chronicles
Ritchie De Laet is not a great player at all. He can't get minutes in a Championship side who's best defender by far last year was a 37 yr old John Terry. He is up against Alan Hutton and can't get minutes... Alan freaking Hutton!! He was loaned out last year and played 8 times for a Belgian 1st division side.
I know this league is rubbish, but he will honestly fit in quite well. He is on holidays for a year earning Championship wages but with no pressure to perform what so ever.
Jamieson - La Rocca - Schekenveld - De Laet
That's not really too troubling to come up against.
We conceded 37 goals, 4 more than City did last year.
We didn't dominate teams, we attacked very smartly and efficiently.
City have a better attack than us this year on paper I agree. But they won't be dominating teams in defence like Sydney did the last few years, that was more my point. City don't have a squad like Sydney did last year so i'm not getting over excited by them. Same goes for Adelaide, Victory and Sydney.

Controlled flares
Music during corners and goal kicks
#****OffGallop
Gallop is a dead set goose, What next goals struck from outside the box worth 2 FFS ?.
F&*()^g idiots at FFA HQ running the game in this country.
Stay woke.
- all fan sets to take flares to opening games.
- after 6 weeks, FFA announce a list of clubs to be docked points for flare use.
- Sydney FC to escape ban due to no fans to rip flares.
- WSW get off with a warning, because you know, that’s what they get.
- Round 7 derby to be talked up as a top of table clash and sell out.
Can’t believe nobody else has seen this.
* I don’t think the derby is in round 7, if so, lucky me, but FFA to change draw.
what is a controlled flare? if it is a controlled and generally safe display of smoke and light for visual affects, isn't it just a flare?
wait, it's not April 1 is it?

mike tuckerman's take
I'm usually deaf from the 140db ground announcer and pre game music anyway and that inane kickoff countdown. No matter how many surveys I do they never turn it down. And now they want more?
Madness....just re-engage the active support.
And by the way, if they do it while VAR is taking a decision, they could have a full live set.
I'm ok with music, as long as it's Scandinavian Black Metal at every interruption of the game.
Headbanging should be compulsory too.
What if it was like baseball style with drum beats that go with chants.
I’m not keen on going to the sokkah and listening to the top 40.
One little loop of bum, ba bum, ba bum, ba bum, ba bum.. and the crowd chants “JETS” and then carries on.
Artificial crowd engagement is better than completely ignoring it with defeaning pop hits.
