Suppose it justifies Azzurris jump up to ID1. No point in winning by cricket scores every week. ID2 is a pretty poor comp so its good that the association was proactive in promoting them up 2 divs especially with some of the players they are attracting. I still dont think they will go anywhere near winning it this year but hopefully they will at least be competitive. The more competitive teams we have the better football in newcastle will be.
