NZ Knights 1 - 1 Newcastle Jets

[El Zilcho]

New Zealand Knights 1 (Jonti Richter 39)
Newcastle Jets 1 ( Mark Bridge 57)

Looks like the Knights should be a bit more competetive this season, apparently had quite a few chances to grab a win.

[Jony]

Yeah, they've signed well, I expect them to be a bit tougher this year.

Ill fix the thread title for you;).

[Liam]

Good on the Knights, its a good foundation to build on.

Anyone know what the crowd was?

[jonk]

Any links to more detail?

[is17]

Any idea if Okon and / or Zelic played?

[Liam]

Theres a report on the A-League website.

[is17]

It's inadequate.

[Liam]

True that.

[Liam]

Haha crowd was 804 people. Bit of work to be done there.

[is17]

I saw that - what a joke!

[T-Mac69]

Less than 1k is a disgrace.

[acmilan_victory]

If they start winning and start playing good football they could potentially attract 30K plus to every game... they are NZ's only team, if they improve upon their performance the whole country could get behind them...
Please.

[T-Mac69]

My thoughts exactly acmilan_victory. :rolleyes:

[TP]

NZ would struggle to get 30k for the entire 64 games of a world cup

not that they'd ever get to host it.

[Clint]

30K for a Knights game... That's the funniest thing I've read in a while ;)

[is17]

Isn't that why they were put in the A League - 1 team from a population of 3 million? ...............Good in theory.
