You seriously think that is disappointing for Gypos and Nix? If that was at Gosford they would be getting 6-7k maybe.
If 5.5 turn up to see those abominations of teams, a real Canberra side should regularly push 10k
lol I've been supporting Newcastle in all its various forms for nearly 30 years.
Go **** yourself.
FACTS
jeez i miss the member
You call that support? Call them what you will but one thing they are Not is a "failure". Sure the teams a basket case. But don't throw them in the same category as other teams which have literally failed in the past. This club has many things to be proud of. 30 years and I'm sure you can name a few. Don't be such a negative ****.
4 owners in 6 years.
We're failures.
KB United, Rosebuds, Breakers, United, Jets.....its a circus in this town.
Circus yes. Failure not. Why are fans like you still around after 30 years if it's all such a failure? The club is always bigger then every player fan owner whatever. The sooner people realise that the sooner we may just turn the circus around in the right direction
Well said
I mean, going broke is kind of a failure isn't it?
Ceasing to exist is kind of a failure isn't it?
Blokes are still around after 30 years because they get distracted by shiny new things. Human nature and all that.
****en oath.
I wouldn't call playing pass the parcel with our HAL licence a ****ing success....
I'm a realist. But I'm also a proud Novocastrian and football fan. That's why I support our ****ing basketcase of a club.
As am I. Certain business side of our club has been a disaster. I just can not and will not accept that we are a failure of a club. Blokes like us are still around. And we are no more of a fan then the little boys and girls that come and watch their first game of football and fall in love. Yes sport is a business and all that shit. But we also shouldn't lose sight of who we are as a club.
Anyway back to expansion

Can't see Tassie getting in.

He raises some excellent logical points. A bit of an argument to the people calling for it all to happen overnight.
I feel like I don't know you anymore.
I feel like I don't know you at all.. bro.
Actually in support of Wilso's argument, he is indeed correct that the Martin Lee owned version of the Jets has yet to fail.
Every other incarnation of football at the highest level in this city? Have at it.
More so just over being the laughing stock of the league. Getting comparisons with the gypos and two failed franchises will do me. Back in the day was awesome to get on the tins with the boys and look forward to a night game etc. Now trying to explain to the mrs who relocated here 6 years ago that the stadium was once packed makes me look like a liar. Now we have a little one who I'm sure will be a lifelong newy fan. Will we buy jerseys for her every year and sit in the squadron? probably not. But I sure as shit won't look at my club as a failure. Sure I'm as quick to bag them out as anyone on here but if we aren't going to back them up when things get tough then wtf are we all doing here?
edit - I'm just here for the laughs and cause my day job is boring as shit.
Until Martin Lee turns up to training with a box of mangoes the jury is still out as far as I'm concerned.
Can we have a counter of some kind on the Homepage telling us how long until the member returns ?
I'd hate to be offline when he re-spawns onto the foz.

I wonder if that is how Jesus felt, waiting 3 long days to squeeze between the rock and a hard place?
