As many of you may already be aware, yesterday the Newcastle Jets family lost a Squadron member.

Sam Taylor had attended Jets home and away games for years, was a constant presence on the terrace, played his local football with many of his mates at South Cardiff FC and was a lifelong Tottenham Hotspur supporter.

He was a mate to so many, inside and outside of the football community in the Hunter. He was someone you looked for when attending Jets games, someone who would always say Gday, and you could have a beer with.

On Monday 18th May, he passed away in his sleep. He was 23 years of age. We ask you to keep his family, friends and colleagues in your thoughts at this most difficult time.

Vale Sam, you will be missed by many, and remembered by even more.

Well it has been a struggle of a season, but it is time the fans had their say in who they thought were influential in a positive way during the 2014/15 Hyundai A-League season. Cast your vote for the player you feel was the best overall in each of the categories.

We also decided to include the office & coaching staff in a voting category as a way to recognise the contributions of those who work behind the scenes. So if you have previously had contact with a staff member who you believe should be recognised, please vote for them in their category.

Voting will be  available up until 9am Thursday 14th May. The top 3 finalists in each category will be announced later the same day. We will then announce the winners on the next Jetstream Podcast episode and via social media.

Only players who made a minimum of 5 appearances during the 2014/15 season were considered for voting.

Please cast your vote below:

The Jetstream Podcast ep 29 – Bodi is 4 goals better than Broxham

David (@Jeterpool) and Michael (@BodyNovo) join furns (@newyboys) for another episode of The Jetstream Podcast.

As the season draws to a close the Newcastle United Jets FC managed their THIRD win of the season away from home over the Melbourne Victory. We review the coaching, tactics, stats, player performances and our MOTM from the game.
We discuss the players being paid on time as well as a suggestion in the media regarding Red Bull buying the club.
We have a number of teams of the decade submitted by listeners (huge thanks to those who contributed) which we read through and discussed, before previewing Friday nights final home game of the season against Sydney FC and the rest of the weekends games in the penultimate round of the regular Hyundai A-League season.

We invite all listeners to provide their Jets XI of the Decade and we will read and discuss it on the podcast, as well as any questions, comments, feedback, topics, etc you might have:
