    The best part is the seniors making sure they stay in good with the overlords at NCC.

    Very proud that they understand how the system works. Newcastle football clubs need to do way more of it.

    Upset they didn't announce exactly how much distance they had put between themselves and the juniors. 50m....1km? Cmon 'press office' be more specific.

    and yes basketball is under resourced in this city and the facilities are a joke.

    There are absolutely better places to put a new centre, but a bunch of bored suburban mums starting Facebook petitions ain't gonna shift it.

    People thinking that the engineering solution to the flooding issue isn't going to end up in peoples houses being flooded is the hilarious bit. If they can't fix it for a couple of empty fields pretty sure a slab of concrete and a 6 story building isn't going to, telling everyone they will engineer it is hilarious.

    The bigger issue is councils complete uninterest in properly addressing sporting fields in the region, I don't know why people think the answer isn't a lobby group instead of pandering to the abysmal state of that organisation.

    but then by the state of what's just happened today, football can't help but shoot itself in the foot instead of using it as an opportunity to come together and put public pressure on an issue that every single club is having and is hampering the development of the sport in the region. Football is supposed to advocate for football, not smile and clap for a basketball stadium. let the basketball people do that.
