Tenambit
Is that the same tenambit field that was washed out for most of last season?
OK
Nelson Bay will be out to spoil Beros Promotion party on Saturday, with ex Nelson Bay player Macca in goals he will be hearing plenty of Banter behind the goals, with Bero needing all 3 points on Saturday it will play to Nelson Bays advantage. Nelson Bay are happy to park the bus and watch Bero feel some pressure trying to break down a 9-0-1 formation. Nelson Bay are happy to have back our speedster at the back Bailache who was on holiday in Europe when we were Raped by the Kingfishers.
Serious comment? Surely there wasn't much thought with your response?
It's great for higher league clubs to allow Zone League clubs use their facilities for the grand final. Why would NBN want to host their grand final at a zone league club? It's bad enough they have to go out to Edgy this year.
I'm sure if you asked all players in any level of football in Newcastle, let alone ZL1, they'd be more than happy to play at Magic Park every week.
Absurd? I think not.
come on the bay
if bero bt Nbay, Suns need to win by 2 over kot to get in
Fire up Beroo!

Why does that matter? Pretty sure a few years ago suns hosted the grand final at Magic Park with no grades in the gf and it was a fantastic day. About 30 suns boys were there cheering on the other games too from the start until end of the day.
Besides that, it's not just about first grade. There's a good chance that Kotara and suns will have more teams in the gf than anyone else that day..
I have no doubts you guys will host a great day.
Yes I agree it's not all about 1st grade but they are the main grade, so why should Suns get the advantage of a "home" GF when other clubs have finished above them to deserve a advantage. If you want to go off all 3 grades then should it not the go to the Club Championship winners?
Let me point out I've got no gripe in you guys hosting it and I'm glad it's a ZL1 club hosting it instead of a NPL club, just purely bringing it up for conversational sake as others may think along the lines of what I've stated.
These kinds of things are said every year. I don't see why it gives the suns, if they make it, such a big advantage. It's in a central location to everyone and if bero were to win and it meant they host the gf, well what an ordinary place to end the biggest day of the season that we all look forward to. My prediction is that the grand final ground will be a neutral venue for the first grade fixture anyway and that's quite fair.
I'm sure all clubs that were keen, applied for the gf. Those that didn't get it this year only have a better chance next year. I know the guys in the suns committee and around the club will make sure it's a great day for all that attend regardless whether any suns teams are there.
Let's just get back to the football chat anyway because these kind of pointless discussions are exactly that. Especially when there's such an exciting final round of football to be played. First grade has two teams fighting for club promotion and first place. While three teams are in contention for the final place in the top 4. Good luck to all.
