Thanks and great point regarding south Cardiff.Originally Posted by Mr Beautiful 2.0
Speaking of the gunners, I?ve just seen a funny Facebook post from them ? they?re recruiting a director of football? why the f would a ZL1 team need a director of football?
Very interested to see how Cardiff go against them next year.
wow im actually crackin up thinkin about southy in zone league. its more than they deserve in my opinion theyve always been a club full of grubs and panel beaters. ideally the club would fold completely, it would make Newcastle football better overall.
might go the other way also.......
Hiding behind "my opinion" don't cut it.
Who do you follow by the way, then we can compare the grubs you don't like and the grubs you follow....
Exactly, bigger grub clubs in ZL & NPL then Southy. Look no further further than our brordmedo friends
Can anyone tell me the prize money for winning zl1? Still 10k?
These five fellas played for Stocko in 2024 and I believe all have 10+ years of experience playing first grade NPL. All jumped shipped after Stockton got promoted.
Tom Smart
Paul Buxton - Played for magic and a couple other NPL clubs
Chris Berlin - Played for adamstown, magic, and a couple others I think - gun striker
Blake Thompson - 7 ft maitland legend
Jon Griffiths - Played for the likes of jaffas, olympic, magic
Shame. They wouldve have been a certain top 5 team.
Last season they pushed Croatia all the way, more than what the ZL1 teams have this season and definitely one of the biggest 'what ifs' this season.
Stockton have done incredibly well to try and rebuild their first grade from literal scratch after a lot of their other first graders have moved on too. If managed well they'll stay in ZL1 for the next couple of seasons. A lot of work to do if they want to challenge finals though.
Would Suns even want to play the grand final this season and risk being destroyed by the unstoppable behemoth that is Newcastle Croatia…. A 3rd time.. ? Hearing the grand final may end up being Croatia vs another team. Kind of sad as for all Suns dominance in this league they will be remembered as just another zl1 team Croatia put a clinic on in years to come
You are blowing a lot of smoke up Croatia?s backside?.still plenty of football to be played. Do not speak to soon!!
like i said, you said they all jumped ship and are glory hunters ? .
other then Tom Smart, he went back to NPL
Griffiths , Berlin & Thomspon have retired or cant play, they would still be playing for Stocko if they played
Paul buxton only played youth NPL 15 years ago or more but agree did go to the Suns to play against Stocko for some reason
Lets not pretend its the same Croatia the ZL1 clubs have had to deal with. I dont recall any ex A-league players running around with last seasons Croatia.
Tonight
Stockton 1-3 Mayfield
Weekend
Olympic 2-2 Suns
Warners Bay 1-4 Uni
Correct me if I?m wrong
Croatia have the same team as last season, the only new signing they have is Cowburn ?
Correct me if im wrong. I dont recall Croatia of last season having any ex A-league players playing for them
for someone, watching from afar, and no affiliation with the croats, you must be a closet Serb with Croat envy
New gk for first grade van something?
Serpa was 1st grade keeper last year and now in ressies
I said Cowburn?his one ?player?
Not sure what ?players? you are talking about ?
Would not be surprised to see Stockton & Warners Bay both get points from these matches
