Maitland's only challenge was to turn up for 18 weeks and whoop the arse of some clubs who can best be described as a disorgainsed rabble and then turn up 3 other weeks and get the better of results against a side that was piss poorly run in last years NBN and isn't really better run this year.

Even yesterday Maitland should have had to work hard to win the game and claim promotion but were able to coast to a 8-0 win against a club that was decimated with a lack of numbers and any quality to an extent they would have struggled to field 3 grades if required

High Time Northern increased the amount of relegation spots out of this league to actually encourage the ZPL teams to get their shit together to step in and take over from these clubs going nowhere and increase the level of competition in this comp as many of them involved need a foot up the arse so as the NewFM winner actually deserves promotion to the NPL not just gets there because they are better than a pile of crap
Hard to get excited that we have blokes you around football in Newcastle. Ffs these blokes have been working towards this for years. Let them enjoy their success. I can guarentee there will be top players from big NPL teams that will come to maitland next year
