Hi Jets4life, thanks for having us up there today and congrats on an awesome turn out if not the performance you would have been after.
I found many Jets supporter to be the most reasonable I have ever experienced today and it was easily the most congenial and best away trip to EAS I have so far had - which I think is better for all parties in all ways.
Re security... I'm not a regular member of the active support at Bluey but I was in the away bay chanting today... and yep, the Hatamoto was it, tried to enforce the new no swearing policy - beginning with a strong talking too and threats of expulsion etc... Which only amounted to being chanted at - "that we were being censored" LMAO
And changing f**king to fudging and other such... Hilarious stuff. Apart from that they stood around glaring at everyone and just trying to intimidate and inject their presence in a way which in all honesty so clearly just wasn't required.
Hard luck on losing Ljubo. Good news though as Topor has really grown being along side of him and is real class for you guys now. And at least a lot is going right off the park for you.
See you guys for the last day Derby!

I responded with the respect I felt the initial post merited in its own right.
I also genuinely had a pleasant experience up there at the game today, and in the pub we went to before and after. I admit its true I would fail as an ultra, howeve for mine, while I've had some poor experiences in the past, I prefer the idea that being gracious and respectful to people is not being un mariners like at all...?
But if you really think it's necessary...
Dear Bogan,
Feck off you kent. irate:

haha I agree with your sentiments regarding the game and the crowd though. We even had a Mariners fan come into our pre-match club, and although he copped a few of the expected chants, I don't think that anyone had a second look at the guy. I thought that both sets of fans were well behaved after the game as well, which is a rarity in the derby. I promise we'll be well behaved after we beat you at Bluetongue verhead:
Good post....I'm told that Doig's contract is ending soon.Hutcho, Hutcho man! Never in the field of human endeavour has one team so outclassed another for such little reward. I thought we would thrash them 1-0, my nerves were on edge, then up stepped a Mariner legend to ease my troubled mind. John Hutchinson reminded the Kwasniks, the Bairds and the Simons that goalscoring can be a very simple but effective art.
Apart from a brief spell when Ruben “two footed jump tackle” Zadkovich single handedly took us on in midfield and forced a fine save from Matt Ryan we were in complete control. Only Adam Kwasnik will know how he missed that open chance; if he had taken it we would have won by 4 or 5 goals. I was so angry i wanted to throttle him, shoot him, hang him from the highest yard-arm and boil him in oil. He’d been playing well to that point but showed us his weakness – from ruthless (Brisbane) to useless.
I thought Ryan was faultless, the back four as tight as Centrelink, the midfield diamond sparkled and up front Matt Simon could have become the competition’s leading scorer if team-mates had the composure to look. I would say Bozanic was our best from a list of candidates – Ryan, Wilko for that great cover tackle after Bojic’s error, Zwaanswijk so dominant that I hardly noticed him, McGlinchey busy and skilful as ever, Griffiths providing the possession and the drive and Perez – unstoppable until he ran out of gas around sixty minutes.
The bench made for conspiracy theories – Hutch – was Amini spelled by a wise Arnold? Sainsbury instead of Doig – is Doig moving on? And Baird, still not match fit, instead of McBreen –is McBreen going too? Or was Arnie just rotating the squad?
Whatever, ultimately we thoroughly deserved the three points, we are in second place and Hutch is a Mariner legend.

As a Jets fan who is part of the Squadron, I am very curious as to whether the Mariners travelling supporters experienced the same ridiculous treatment by security that we did tonight (and at our last home game)? People were being thrown out of the Squadron for singing chants with minor swear words and for other petty incidents.
As for the game, I think that the Mariners, despite my blind hate of them, have reinvented themselves this year and would not be at all surprised if they came away with the title. Despite playing a weakened Jets side, they still looked composed for the entire game and took their chances well when they came along. As much as this pains me to say it, they are currently a far better coached and skilled side than the Jets are at the moment.
Fair point actually. Branko out. See you in 2016!Beat us at Bluetongue? Is it 2016 already?
I think that Zadkovich is easily the most talented Newcastle player on the ball, and has shown that he can trouble other team's defence regularly. At the moment though, Branko is playing him way to deep. At 24, there's still plenty of time for him to improve, and although he's only scored 2 goals this year, he creates plenty of chances each week. Purely as a football observer, and ignoring my natural bias towards Jets players, I think that you're severely under rating Zadvovich as a footballer.the only difference between zadkoich of old (FC) and new (post europe) is that if he ever, god
forbid, be given the absolutely un earned priviledge to pull on a green and gold he may just hit the keeper
instead of some poor unsuspecting fan in row 20, still no threat.
:-*
Love?
