Can confirm non attendance, But if it helps I can confirm non attendance of a Ssydney supporter too, so that evens it up on my side.

lol. Jobe Wheelhouse? That means he'll be on the pitch most of the time, doesn't it?

Unfortunately yes. He may well prove me wrong but I can't see how he makes the starting XI let alone be made captain. Surely Wehrman, Topor or Elrich would have been better choices.

Griff?

stop asking about griff.....

sadly not going to happen.

Arent they supposed to be showing their new kits today? Or am i mistaken?

At the season launch tonight, I doubt we will get many pics, and they won't come online until at least >9:00 I bet even if there are any. Will be interesting to see though.

Doubter.

Hey all. Just wondering what time does the youth league game and the main game kick off today at Darling Street?

I can't find anything on the internet and speaking with a few people, none of them seem to be certain about kick off times.

Edit: Never mind. Today's Herald article to the rescue.

They said theyd give a sneak preview

Did they?

No, we were able to buy the training shirts and all that kind of stuff but the actual playing strips were not revealed.

That sucks.

It was quite dissappointing tbh, but at least all the players were there for autographs.

Supporter shop looks good!

Haven't been in there yet myself but I'm really happy it's open. It's about time we had one.

Had one in the NSL days. Con opened it and it was open for the first season or two of the A-league I believe.

Newcastle United existed before 2010. Don't forget our history like the new ownership has.

Also we are getting the Jetstream fanzine back into circulation this season with monthly issues. So make sure you do your best to get your hands on a copy as there won't be many going up for sale however we don't expect to sell that many but you never know.

It will be issue 17 (there have previously been 16 issues), and it is the first one that I will be contributing to and distributing. It should be going on sale at the F3 derby on the 23/10/11. So come find me or any of the other distributors and for a gold coin get a piece of Jets fan history.

If you would like to contribute see Newcastlefootball.net/forums, and register or follow the links to the jetstream reborn page for details.

Wow, I didn't know we ever had one. Btw, I know the history of Newcastle football, even if I wasn't alive for anything pre-1993...I am not a bandwagoner

Our biggest home game of the season and they had to go and schedual it for the night before one of my HSC exams...soooooooo pissed off

Not saying you are a bandwagoner, It's just easy for people to dis con (even though he was a knob), and forget the effort he put in for newcastle football. really no single person has financially done as much for football in the hunter than con.

ahhk yea, fair point. People seem to forget that he put about $20mil out of his own pocket into keeping the club alive. Without Con, there would be no Newcastle football club in the league.

It was originally the knights store, but now its the superstore thingy. It looks good, very professional and what not.

Brb going for a meeting

:lol:

sounds like a good player
