AFC Asian Cup Australia 2015 - Newcastle Hosting

[MFKS]

stupid Sydney and Melbourne straw men

it doesn't rain in UAE, this plays right into our hands

**** oath it does. Heavy pitch our blokes with extra day rest our opponent having 120 mins in the legs. Not to mention our Euro players will be quite used to playing in these conditions.

We should be more dominant the longer it goes.

We get an early goal or two and we will walk all over them like one would do to a certain Hunter based ALeague side and chalk up a bag ful

[Footyhead]

Can't wait for tonight, rail hail or shine, will be there. After all the shit the Jets have been dishing up, looking forward to more Timmy antics ^^

[hawk]

Can public take cameras in? wont fit in pocket

[boz-monaut]

there was something about not being allowed to take in big ****-off lens type professional cameras in

I'll be happy tonight if the Socceroos are Adelaide and UAE are the Jets - go up in less than two minutes, score at will for the next eighty eight

but hey, no team could ever score seven goals in the semi final of a major tournament though yeah?

Not against the home team anyway - that's justvsilly talk. We'll be right

I took the 300mm long lens to Suncorp for the Stu Korea match. No issues.

Also had no issues at the WC despite warnings to the contrary

Hope you lucky bastards enjoy the game.

I would officially like to thank Gaz for offering me a ticket for tonight
Unfortunately he left it about half an hour too late for me to make the trip to Newy from Sydney and make kickoff.

The bastard.

[furns]

So I guess that everyone was at the game? Lol

Enjoy mate soak it up

Tip for the day:
Buy concession or child tickets online. Save hundreds. Really.. All you are doing is scanning them at the gate

[plague]

I thought we'd do better than score one goal but that's all we needed.
Left ourselves open but we done it.
Bring on the final.

Forgotten what a **** of a place State de Newy is to get away from with a big crowd present.

Prefer the Jets games with **** all crowd

****ing plastic fans everywhere

"Every day I'm shufflin"... As we headed out, compared to Stadium Straya where 4x the crowd but 4x as quick to exit

[hawk]

hopefully we can get over Pop Asia in the final because not conceding a goal in a whole tourny is ridic.

What's with these media soft cawks Lynch, Hassat and Duvotovic going on about a lack of atmosphere tonight?

I really don't get it. The thing about a Newy crowd is that they cheer in the right places, they applaud in the right places, they groan in the right places, and they anticipate a goal. They know how to bring a team home. This tells me we have a very educated crowd. Tonight I had guys around me debating various aspects of tactics and player performance. A newy crowd is engaged in the game.

So what if Newcastle people don't sing. It's an anglo trait and a sign of the mainstream nature of the football in our city. Expect more of this if the game becomes more and more mainstream in the rest of the country.

These dicks want to turn crowds into performing seals, cheerleaders. For what? So that they can go on about how great the atmosphere is? Funny listening to Duvutovic say what needs to happen to create more active support like he is a chess master pushing the pawns around.

Get stuffed.

[Jeterpool]

Simples. They don't want Newcastle to host the Socceroos again by showing it was a bad move bringing them here in the first place

[Jeterpool]

But I do agree with you hauss, the fans last night were really engrossed in the match so yes they were quiet during some stages. I don't think that it was a problem but as I said before, after the rumblings about Newcastle getting the semi in the first place, they're going to be looking for reasons to say they didn't deserve it.

I think the city represented well last night.

Anyone think there was more than 21906 (or whatever it was)?
