They were never going to get a good crowd on Sunday when you have most of the football semi finals on the same time.There are people out their who would be the frist to complain if Newcastle would lose their spot in the league but they never trun up to the games isn't that right Trevor.lets hope something can be done Newcastle need the jets in the league

If there are so many football {soccer} followers out there, then how could the Jets situation get to this stage. The season the Jets won the comp I remember seeing on the news that they had a great crowd at the last couple of games that season. Are you lot that fickle that you only turn up at the end of a season if the team are going well. If that is the case then I wouldn't blame Mr Constantine if he either sold the franchise or walked away. If he walks, then you lot will deserve what you get, NO TEAM AT ALL.

Why did you (Con) start the season knowing you did not have the cash flow to proceed with the season. It is unbelievable that you would do this and bring the club, players, supporters to its knees. You are a very wealthy man and very shrewed and you are known to keep everybody waiting for their money all the time, but this is unforgiveable.

The Jets would be better off without Con Constantine. Newcastle would be better off without him. He owns them, right?

People will start attending games again when the stadium stops being a construction zone. Nobody I talk to wants to go to games from either code while the place is a mess. Things will pick up once the renovations are over.

How could Conn ever concider buying the N cle Knights franchise, he is battleing to pay the round ball fella's. But then again if all the soccer fans supported their team, the cash flow would be there.
