Well done to bay 60 tonite
The Squadron were sublime tonight. Non-stop energy for the full 90.
What's that thing where everyone seems to run into the middle of the bay like maniacs? Haha, it looked like utter chaos, but was awesome to watch from where I was in the Eastern.

Not too bad in terms of numbers. 3,2,1 newy looked great with so many overhead claps. Really would love to see more on the sides get involved with that.
Wow we have some crazy youth coming through the ranks. Let's hope they stick by for many years to come.
Also noticed a new-cas-tle chant going up in topper tier I'm glad we stick clear of that in the activer support bay even though I follow the knights too.
Heard the newcastle Chant, however we were in the middle of something, and I would prefer we use "Common Newcastle" or "Jets"
Go jetties
Top effort in that second half.
Best allez allez newy allez from memory.
now that I'm sober, I just want to say I was absolutely appalled with a couple of blokes comments last night
The worst one being when the second half started; toby and furns gestured for everyone to start singing and one bloke sitting at the back of bay 60 piped up and said "how do we sing when all these kids are here", when I hit him up about what he said he thought nothing off it. In my opinion that killed the kids in the bay for the half who were doing fantastic in a poor display. Also you could probably say the average age off the people still chanting at fulltime was 25 and I'm not including furns in those averages who would probably prop it up to 30 (sorry furns) so that kills off your claims that the squadron is majority 12-16 year olds.
Friday night though so it will be fun
come and get involved.
Had no idea that's why a majority of the kids left bay 60 in the second half. I was over at the bar at halftime and didn't venture back into bay 60 till about the 50th minute.
Having said that I had way more fun in the second half when we all stood in the middle alot of the 16-18 year olds down the front weren't getting 100% involved with the songs.
Still cannot believe we had allez allez allez newy allez going for nearly 10 minutes even if there was maybe 15 of us sounded like double that hahaha.
Great numbers got to around 30 by the end. Really really impressive tbh and I think I forgot we were down 4-0 in the end.

Good end to the season. Goals help.
Just need to get the part timers back on more of a fulltime basis. Hopefully more games under lights next season aswell. Looking forward to the active supporters meeting in a couple weeks.

Statement from squadron FB page
Positive start on the field yesterday as the boys fought hard to achieve a 1-1 draw against the champions from last season.
Particular impressive home debuts from Wayne brown & Andrew Nabbout
Unfortunately for fans the off field issues we were met with on entry yesterday in our new location soured the occasion.
We have been in contact with the club over the last 24 hours and even during the game yesterday.
The main causes for concern have been
- Fans unable to get into active bays due to having insufficient ticketing requirements for security to allow fans into the active bay
- Fans being given the wrong tickets by Ticketmaster, being told that general admission would allow them entry into the active bay.
- Fans then being charged in the way of $12 on top of there gameday ticket/membership to join the bay.
We are hoping to have answers on all these matters ASAP and will let everyone know as soon as possible as to best way to go moving forward.
Our sincerest apologies to those that were affected and wanted to join in yesterday. It is as devastating for us as it is for you as we have worked tirelessly with the club in the offseason to move to our new home on the Southern Hill.
Please don’t lose faith as we want to make this move successful for years to come.

Well said furns. Sorry you had to wait 20-30 minutes in line for membership pickup too. Absolutely over the top security. Thank god one of the security guards knew me from the knights games otherwise I reacon I would have been denied.
On a positive though the wayne browns on fire chant definitely caught on well. Also helped bring an individual who hadn't really been in the squadron before too
