Hellooooo. And administrators if you can help? I hear Davad has been uncontactable and does not like discussing any matters with forum? Any truth? Can we still pose questions to him?
Be interesting what comes of this as the NBN State League clubs have a majority and can really restrict the Jets Yoof to whatever they chooseNORTHERN NSW State League clubs are certain to call for a tightening of eligibility criteria for Jets A-League players when representatives meet to flesh out next season's rules tonight.

NNSWF chief executive David Eland said the regulations outlining the Emerging Jets and Youth Jets sides' participation in the competition were the only items on the agenda for the state league standing committee meeting.
This year the Jets under-20s side made their state league debut, finishing fourth and bowing out in back-to-back finals losses after setting the pace through most of the season.
Despite the successful debut, there was unrest among clubs about the open eligibility criteria for A-League-contracted under-20 players in the competition.
Originally, three of these players were allowed to take part if they were local and not considered established A-League players. The definition of established was a player who had started more than five A-League games the previous season.
However, this definition was opened up to be a player who had taken part in 10 or more A-League games in each of the past two seasons.
This gave the Jets greater freedom to bring in young A-League players, changing the strength of the side more from week to week.
Eland said the eligibility of Jets A-League players was "certain to be the hot topic of discussions".
The other likely change is sure to meet little opposition.
This year the Jets had no link between feeder systems the NSW Institute of Sport and Emerging Athletes Program within the state league.
It meant the Jets youth side were unable to call up NSWIS players when short, which led to the depleted first-grade side having to put field players in goal when their keeper was sent off or suspended.
Meanwhile, Eland said the absence of new nominations for board positions at Sunday's annual general meeting was a vote of confidence in current directors.
In accordance with the NNSWF constitution, two directors - Alex McDonald and Phil Holt - retired from the board. However they nominated for a return and were elected unopposed along with previous appointee, Michael Gaertner.

Bill Walker and Gaertner were elected chairman and deputy chairman respectively unopposed. Helene O'Neill remained as a casual vacancy, meaning the board was unchanged.
The board was elected in dramatic circumstances in January this year after the removal of former directors over their sacking of Eland.
The board saw themselves as an interim group to stabilise NNSWF but will now remain in their posts until the 2014 annual meeting.
I see there is a vote of confidence in the board of NNSW. Does David Eland hold the same vote of confidence from this board? I hear he is quite the arrogant type...

Now that most clubs have started pre-season training, can anyone confirm player movements for the upcoming season?
there's a whole thread on it EH9
Sorry Boz
Correct me if I'm wrong and I probaly am. I thought No2 had problems with the fire exists and nobody can play there untill they are widened?
How about you confirm what you know??? Your in the loop.
Apparently yes, BUT if you provide "fire wardens" you can circumvent this issue. Why the question?
Was just reading back threw the thread, with all the stuff about Olympic playing a game there was just curious
There is a possibility that if the expected crowd is less than a certain quota the issue may not be relevant.
Bad mistake on Olympics behalf, in my honest opinion. They have a great facility, for what it is worth, tidy, clean, though not to the standard of Magic / Edgeworth, which they basically have care and control of and yet they want to play on No. 2 because they want to get a foot in the door to challenge Magic / Edgeworth for the grand final. Just my opinion based on what i have heard! A really bad tactical position for Olympic to hold and i cannot understand what the advantage to Olympic or the State League will be by them playing there, nor do i understand why the Fed is allowing it? Why have a criteria for a home venue and then transfer your club to another venue? We carry on about clubs building and advancing their facilities and yet we have this sort of rubbish going on. As you can see i am passionate about clubs building their facilities.
Questions need to be asked:
1. Why transfer the game to No. 2?
2. What is the tangible benefit from this transfer?
3. What is the advantage for the Fed to move this game?
4. What costs are involved with playing on No. 2?
5. Who will benefit from the costs of playing at No. 2?
6. Will No. 2 be available for future football use?
7. Will No. 2 be a regular venue for Olympic?
8. Will No. 2 have a sufficiently suitable surface for playing football during the season?
9. Who will be playing at Darling St while Olympic are at No. 2?
Couldn't agree with you more surely the money spent moving their games to No2 could be better spent upgrading darling st not that it's that bad.
I do think however a team of the likes of cooks hill could benifit from playing there. They have been a strong side for the last couple of years in ZPL and with a large junior base I think they would do well in New FM not sure why they haven't been promoted but if facilities is the reason then No2 could be the solution.
I have nothing to do with cooks hill by the way.
at Cooks Hill we did put in massive efforts to get use of #2, only for the Council to classify it in a manner that only allows the highest State level competitions to be played there
doesn't stop rugby playing juniors there though
Cooks Hill United are committed to improving the facilities at our current ground in order to meet requirements for State League - we are keen on promotion and will do so when NNSW allows (and we're in a position to do so)
