Wow..... just wow...... 

Matey, just heard a fairly strong rumour over the weekend about a relatively large ASX listed company approaching AAFC as a naming rights sponsor for the NST... Hearing the dollar figure is unbelievable and will cover a huge amount of the expenses some of the clubs are worried about ....  discussion point at the moment is around who will administer the funds/comp but Im reliably told we should hear some pretty exciting news about this, broadcast deal with both a FTA AND Streaming service (most will be very very pleased with this) by end of April.... Fingers and toes crossed at the moment :)

And we let him go 

Round 9 NPLVIC

https://www.footballvictoria.com.au/news/nplm-preview-round-9

Oakleigh v Port and  Magic v Saints the pick of the bunch for neutrals... South v Bentleigh will be a dumpster fire of failed "attempts on goal", dont bother :(

Massive win for Marconi on the weekend. 3-1 over top of the table Rockdale ilinden at club Marconi, aka the palace,  in front of a decent crowd Saturday night crowd, particularly as west Sydney wanderers were playing Melbourne victory at parramatta at the same time. Marconi up to 3rd now, 3 points behind APIA who are now top, and 2 behind Rockdale who have a game in hand. Good win for APIA too, 4-2 away to Blacktown. Sydney United another 2 points back in 4th after a 0-0 away draw to Wollongong. Sydney Olympic now falling behind the pack in 7th, gonna be hard for them to defend their title from here with the cutthroat nature of first past the post.

Great win for the both Italian giants last week, APIA undefeated as well.... 

Yea, APIA looking strong, imagine if they didn’t lose their key striker after 1 match. Incidentally they’re expecting a sell out for their APIA against Olympic this weekend, their annual “festival of football”. For those unaware the two clubs have gotten together to organise an Italian and Greek cultural festival to coincide with their match every year. they take turns hosting. They have Italian and Greek food stalls, music, entertainers etc. excellent initiative by both clubs imo. Will try to get down and support said initiative.
i believe this is the third or fourth year they’ve done it now. 

My boys love the pizza at the Trattoria so we went and watched that game as well as we do only twice or three times a season usually.    I notice they've got Olympic in the Australia Cup as well. 

don't ya just love NPL football, thats amore !

Thats bloody unreal...... Well done to both clubs... Have a lamb and tzatziki pizza for me :). 

Yea it’s quality. Goes all day, they have the youth teams playing, womens teams, legends match, then culminates in the mens first teams. Good on em 

No "effnik violence"? Iol  Nah that sounds amazing mate..... have a great time.

We’ll see..despite being a Marconi supporter, if Olympic score and start doing their “oh-lym-pic” chant my Italian blood might start boiling and  I might just lose control of my emotions and lash out 

Incidentally at the Olympic - Marconi match at belmore last year, the Olympic fans calling  the ref a malaka and  accusing  him of accepting free pasta at the Marconi club as a bribe for preferential treatment hahaha couldn’t help but laugh ..doesn’t get much more old sokkah than that 

Hahahahahahaha thats great.....

An offical attendance of over 4000 was announced over the loudspeaker at lambert park today for APIAs 3-0 win over Sydney Olympic. Great result considering the rain in my opinion. Once again, well done to both clubs involved for showing  initiative. Incidentally APIA are now clear atop the ladder, still undefeated, with Marconi 3 points back in 2nd position, after a 4-1 on Saturday. looks like both Italian clubs will be challenging for the title this season, and it also looks like it’s going to be a tough ask for Olympic to defend their title from here 

In Tassie when both APIA and Marconi have visited to play  domestic NPL clubs in the National Cup, they've been like chalk and cheese.

APIA played some of the slickest football I've seen  any NPL club play. The APIA coach was a guy with glasses, who was quite young for a NPL coach.

 Conversely, a few seasons ago, Marconi, hoofed long high balls up from the defensive line up into the mixer. They were awful - the worst football playing  NPL team I've seen visit this  state for some time.

As a Marconi fan, unfortunately I agree. We play ugly football, have already noted previously that I’m not a fan of tsekenis’ style of football. We seem quite inconsistent, every now and then we pull out a decent performance, but then go back to ugly, physical route 1 stuff the next week.

APIA looked sharp today 

It must be quite disappointing. 

I'm sure Marconi have played a better style of football in the past.

Went to Preston and Northcote in NPL2 on Friday. Absolutely Packed. 

Grandstand was full, heaps around the fences too 

Is that because of the NST interest? Would be great if they could average that sort of crowd in the NST next year if they are in the thing.

Nah, would be a few things

a - Preston win and they go top
b - almost a local derby, only a few suburbs from each other 
c - preston have good support
d - macos v greeks

Any blow ups?

You'd love that.

yes, opposing supporters got in a massive argument about who was going to shout each other beers 

That's nice, it's the way it should always be, although I'm sure it's an exaggeration.

Now don't be like that, it's not true.
