Yo, will help with this if needed Membz.
Yeah Member I'm already working on Monday so I'll be clocked off by the time your signs go up.
Can't do 2 shifts in one day so won't be helping.
If the seccos bung it on though I'll come in throwing hands to help out.
Never going to another Jets game anyway, a ban won't bother me.
Unless it all kicks off when I'm in the beer line. Ain't giving up my spot for no one.
All Help is needed and appreciated
Lquiquer is right should defo need a minimum of 12 and 16 would be ideal.
Its hard to do them justice as to how big they are. Whilst working on them I have had them folded up with only a metre or two exposed. Once done then folding them up has been fun.
At this stage I haven't actually stretched them fully out in their glory but they are ****ing huge!!!
what bay?
Nominate a time and place to meet and I will be there
Great banner lads, it worked even better with no one there
A great banner. The crowd that were there appreciated it. Fox ignored it but the coverage got it, the Muppet read it, the Spud (Murphy) saw it and I'm sure Tinks knows about it. Great job.
Member, you are to be congratulated.
Yeah awesome stuff member!
Looked bloody awesome. What ended up happening with the seco?
They were over telling us to put it down.We had been told for a couple of mins before hand but were busy fobbing them off with questions whilst they kept being polite. The first goal went in point made everyone went back to watching the game.
The story I got was Hunter Venues demanded it come down
Was planning on doing it at Kick Off but it was flogging down so figured wait to HT and get there when the seccos are too busy dealing with whos had half a beer too much in the HT beer queue. We had it up for a few minutes before the players came back out. A couple of players were having a good laugh.
Even had a player thank us for it at FT
Yeah I saw it go up just as I got back to my seat in bay 55. I think you guys times it well.
Pretty piss poor that hunter venues requested it come down, if it's not affecting the view or creating a safety issue, I don't see the issue.
Most likely had some of the jets management make a request
fox was trying to keep the cameras low. But they couldn't. well done
And they were too gutless to mention it in their coverage
Did listen to Mr 2 from 24's presserDISGRUNTLED supporters staged a protest as the Newcastle Jets suffered another demoralising defeat, going down 2-0 to Perth Glory at a rain-lashed Hunter Stadium on Monday night.
Out-played by the Jets in the first half, the visitors scored two second-half goals to claim three points and join Melbourne Victory at the top of the table on 44 points but second on goal difference.
Andy Keogh headed home a Jamie Maclaren cross in the 49th minute for his 11th goal of the campaign before substitute Nebojsa Marinkovic sealed the win with a show-stopper in the 84th minute.
It was more of the same from the Jets. They dominated for large periods, especially in the first half.
They had the better of possession, more shots on goal and delivered more balls into the penalty box but had nothing to show for it.
Edson Montano and Mitchell Cooper failed to convert a host of chances. On another night Andrew Hoole might have had a hat-trick.
‘‘We certainly created enough chances to score, but it just wasn’t meant to be,’’ coach Phil Stubbins said.
‘‘We have gone away from trying to be just defensively resolute and get everyone behind the ball. We have tried to be a little more proactive and create some chances.’’
The Jets have now gone four games at home without a goal.
The defeat was their 15th of the season and they have now played 24 games for just two wins.
The match drew a record-low crowd at Hunter Stadium of 4192.
Fans vented their frustration at the club’s worst season on record by unveiling a giant banner at half-time that stretched across three bays of the Andrew Johns Stand and read: ‘‘Enough failure lies and arrogance 10,000 fans demand the muppet gone’’.
Stubbins understood their disappointment but had confidence in his vision to rebuild the club.
‘‘I am not against anyone venting,’’ he said. ‘‘The fans are obviously disgruntled and disappointed. As the head coach and someone who is at the front, that vent and anger is going to go towards myself.
‘‘We are trying to do everything we can behind the scenes to build the club. Hopefully come this time next year we are in a very strong position.’’
Asked if the constant criticism had affected him personally, Stubbins said: ‘‘I have become accustomed to it. You deal with it.
‘‘There is a vision I have got and there is a vision the staff has got.
‘‘As long as you have a vision attached to where you want to take the club, then you hang on to that. In terms of the knocks, you just ride the waves.
‘‘I have a two-year deal and I will be doing everything I can to service that deal in the right way.
‘‘We have made some changes, but when we get our squad assembled for next season, you will see a different Newcastle Jets take the field.’’
Glory coach Kenny Lowe admitted the visitors were below par and lucky to claim three points.
‘‘It’s about winning,’’ he said. ‘‘Adelaide came here and Phil Stubbins should have got something out of that and maybe today as well.
‘‘That’s nature. It falls a certain way for certain people and it fell our way today.’’
Despite the wet conditions, the opening 45 minutes was an entertaining end-to-end affair.
All that was missing was a goal.
Playing his 47th appearance, Hoole went close to breaking his duck in the 12th minute when denied at the near post by a strong right hand of Danny Vukovic. It was a sign of things to come.
Enver Alivodic, who was outstanding early, was one-on-one with Vukovic but couldn’t beat the outstretched leg of the keeper.
The ball rebounded to Montano. Rather than hit a first-time shot, the Ecuadorean took a touch and allowed Michael Thwaite to get across and block his effort.
With second place up for grabs, there was a real desperation about the Glory defence.
Dino Djulbic was the next to put his body on the line to block a Hoole effort as the shot count increased to 13-8 in favour of the home side.
The Jets wasted another chance two minutes into the second half when an unmarked Cooper failed to hit the target with a header.
A minute later they were behind.
Sidnei had a long range effort blocked by Ben Kennedy. The ball fell to Maclaren who crossed to Keogh at the far post to head home.
Muppet had the audacity to call me a plastic fan.
Dribbled some crap about me not supporting the club.
How wrong can he be. I support the club
Just not him
That was fantastic.
Certainly getting plenty of coverage across the web. Sensational effort, congratulations.
That he did. Bloke has been here for 5mins rooted the club and has the hide to question our motives and support.
F&*K Mr 2 from 24
Obviously reads the foz if the muppet is having swipes at me insinuating I am somehow a plastic fan
i quite like the cut of this stubbins' jib
