Comments by Andrew Woodward, General Manager, North Coast Football
This is fantastic news for football fans up and down the coast. We get to see the Jets at the start of a rebuilding phase, and with Sydney FC, we get to see one of the biggest names in Australian and Asian football.
Sydney FC is brimming with international and local stars keen to make amends for last year’s grand final loss to Melbourne City.
The Newcastle Jets are under new management; they have a new coach, and they’re in a much stronger position than they were last year.
It’s great to see the Jets reaffirming their support for the North Coast under the new management.
