2025 Zone League 1

[MoSalahh]

I think it's been really good. I'm sure they will go on eventually, but there are actually a lot of great clubs in Newcastle/ Zone League and its brilliant to see some of those get to tell their story.

Also match of the round has been really good, show casing all levels of football. Have some appreciation for the work people are putting in at all levels to get their clubs to perform. There's far more to football than ZL1, or Croatia + Suns.

I am just glad more is being done to promote Zone League. I'm sure they are trying to naturally improve the content over time.

[Zonal Marking]

Match of the round has become a joke. Next thing you know they will cover an all age K game.

The Croatia vs Suns game at the start of the year had people talking, what a game. But since then has Croatia or the Suns been on? What about Cardiff, they are decent, where are they?

The podcast could be really good. People are interested in seeing teams on with CT and Wilso. If it's just the host giving results then it's as boring as batsh#t, no detail and little about anything. Anyone can read results.

Why hasn't Croatia, Suns or Cardiff been on the podcast?

I get why you included the top two teams in the league but why also throw in a mid table team currently sitting out of the finals places?

Why did you just mention Croatia & suns ? Cardiff were also mentioned ?

Suns definitely are not interested in going on the podcast & I?m positive Croatia are not either.

They seem to talk a lot about Croatia conceding goals, if you check the stats Croatia have conceded the least in the comp.

Correct they can?t even get basic stats right.

The latest episode with Stockton was just embarrassing

I will not comment further as I will be attacked on here

A mid table team is surely a better watch then a bottom of the ladder team. Correct?

Can someone please confirm firstly if they have been asked and if so why don't they want to go on it?

The host clearly knows nothing that happens outside his club.

it's not all his fault; the puppet master pulls the strings....

No games again this weekend. That gives clubs 3 weeks to play 5/6 games before the regular season finishes.

When do we start having conversations to extend the season or move games to Speers?

They won?t extend the season. More rain coming next week as well by the forecast so potentially another weekend off.

Until NPL and NL1 finish I can?t see much space being free at Speers Point and if it becomes available who will bare the cost as I?m sure Northern won?t do it for free.

Speers Point booked out for 2 weeks straight, they told us yesterday...

So can we now build the new much needed synthetic pitches in the Broadmeadow precinct upgrade. The best chance to get a new ground from the anti Newcastle state govt.

I think Kings Park in Raymond Terrace would be a good location for synthetic pitches in Port Stephens Council wants to fork out a few millions.

Apart from the fact it floods quite regularly, which is a problem most grounds will have.

Wonder how many of the squad theyll keep. Being in a more "remote" place I would think theyll keep most?

Yes, we need Speers point now for ZL

A chunk came from Azzurri Reserve grade last year so not like they live there. I would guess they may lose a big chunk and will be in the bottom half of the table
