Mate!

Are ther only 8 teams in the league??

Love the way you have done that - Are there any photos of these stadiums?

Yep only eight teams, its the inaugural season, more will be added i think as the years go on.

Will get some photos in there when time permits O Dogg.

Most important thing about the walk to Aussie stadium are the number of great pubs along the way. It should take 15 minutes, but you should give yourself a couple of hours just to be on the safe side.

Yeah General, only 8 teams in the comp. Adelaide United were around for the last season of the old league and Perth Glory have been around for a few years, all the rest are brand-spanking new clubs (although the NZ team was born directly from their old club in the old comp). Perth Glory were seen as the template for the new comp.

I found a few pictures of the stadiums, some of them don't really do them justice but anyway I've put them at the following links

Hindmarsh Stadium (Adelaide United)
Central Coast Stadium (Central Coast Mariners)
Olympic Park Stadium (Melbourne Victory)
North Harbour Stadium (New Zealand Knights)
Energy Australia Stadium (Newcastle Jets)
Members Equity Stadium (Perth Glory)
Suncorp Stadium (Queensland Roar)
Aussie Stadium (Sydney FC)

Thanks disillusionist, and i wouldnt recommend a walk to North Harbour Stadium at night! Anyone seen Once Were Warriors???

I have now added Dis's pics to the original post.

Edit: Doesnt the Queensland one look great!

I have some great pics of the Glory Shed but have no idea how to link my pictures up to this site??

Sydneys looks great! But Queensland is huge! That cant just be used for football is it?

You're right Jamie, the Queensland stadium is used for rugby league as well, and from the posts on the field you can see it's a league match being played for that crowd. But yeah it looks imposing. In New South Wales it's known as having an intimidating atmosphere for some of the big rugby league matches.

madhatter, if you like you can email the pics to me at disillusionist@exemail.com.au I can put them up on an image-hosting site where I have an account and then post the links on here.

ok Buddie! i was just wondering as football isnt like the main sport in Australia thought it was odd to have such a big stadium for it

Yeah it is surprising and I don't think the FFA were particularly keen on clubs using the really big stadiums yet for that reason as to be honest there's no chance in hell of filling them. Looks better on TV if you use smaller venues with fewer empty seats and you'd imagine there'd be a better atmosphere.

There is also information in our Art/Graphics section on how to do this mate. Its the same way they describe in there as to how to upload a sig or avatar.

cheers fellas I'll look into it!!

Here's a great picture of the Perth Glory Shed provided by madhatter:



Nice one. Would be even better if there was more purple happening - which goes back to what you've been saying about the merchandising.

Nice one, nest time i go to Melbourne to see my old lady i will go to a Victory game and get some pics.

I booked flights and accomodation the other day for the Jets v Melbourne in Melbourne on November 26th. Ill take my camera and bring a few photos back

Did there not used to be a team called Nothern Spirit because rangers chairman David Murray owned them for a while and they sold there strips in the Ranges Shop.

Yeah mate, they used to be my team Scooper9 used to follow them as well.

He will no more than me but we folded because they wouldnt pay money i think.

Ah ok i wondered what happened to them.

Cheers

Some more pics of some of the stadiums.

Queensland.


Sydney.


Newcastle.



There was pics of all the stadiums but the other ones were over head and not so good.

We stand in the 2nd last bay on the right, bottom level

The state Government of Victoria is building a new $190 million stadium for Melbourne Victory and Melbourne Storm (Rugy League) that is due to be completed in 2008.

aaah so you are a memebr of the infamous squadron

"ooooooooooh when the jets go flying in, oh when the jets go flying in......."

i too am a great jets supporter but im now stuck living in sydney.

ive been to each of new south wales' stadiums and they are all brilliant in their own way. the SFS (aussie stadium) is a bloody awesom stadium, huge an beautiful. cental coast (bluetongue stadium) is creates a great atmosphere and is right on the picturesque 'brisbane waters'. but the EAS in Newcastle is the best....... why? coz the jets play there.

GO THE JETS

Great to see a Jets fan on here. Stick around mate

What do you think of The Squadron?

Did you make it down to the game against the Coast on Saturday? Geez we played some good football, cant wait for the new season
