Petrie to Join Fergie at NQ

[Jorome Alexander Bennett]

In the tradition of the New York Red Bulls, what about the club court one of Australia's leading bussinessmen into being a naming sponsor.

North Queensland Dick Smiths.

Yellow and black kit. All the players wear thick rimmed glasses.

The football manager, Ferguson, being in charge of the Dicks would be known as 'The Big Dick'.

I was thinking what a load of crap, then I got to the punch line and it all made sense. still a bad idea but at least funny for those in the know.

On a side note what do you think are the chances of us playing a trial against these guys given fergie is coaching them and we did trials this year in Mackay and Rockhampton?

North Queensland Cougars?
I really like Mariners because one can see sail boats in action from the stadium. it makes sense. Cougars? 
I don't like Victory or Glory. Abtract. I don't like Roar. The Brisbane Growl? I like lions. Brisbane Lions. Oh. But Roar?
Adelaide do well in using their Reds tag. Sydney should follow suit with Blues. But Sydney management are too thick to be able to market a quality product.
Jets is a good team name, IMO. Phoenix is also good.
I do prefer that the club's official name doesn't have an animal. Norwich City FC. The Canaries.
Newcastle United Jets Football Club. No.
Grimsby Town FC.

I think Cougars is fine, but would like NQFC, with a nickname of Cougars.

ive heard its a little different, havent heard cougar

Re: Cougars - I just picture a bunch of hot milfs running around in humid temperatures with Fergie and Stuey having a laugh.
I would make an away trip to Cougar land for sure, if there were Cougars that is.

 

[RADINHO]

nah its good to have friends from the mariners to be involved with the Norths the only bad thing though is that since we are so connected with them they will probably poach any player we have not contracted for net season.

*cough* Petrovski *cough* Sign him now Lawrie.

More chance of Nik going than Sash.

More chance of Nik going than Sash.

Why? Sash could command a higher salary with competition

 

[Jorome Alexander Bennett]

We are lucky, in that we have ACL to sway players to stay or even tempt off contract players.

I hope we keep Sash to be honest.

In particular

"Already the club is targeting between 12 and 14 players for next season, including a prominent Australian-based Socceroo for the crucial marquee role."

Any guesses - Moore, Thomson, Aloi$i, Jedi

 

[Bear]

Moore, Aloisi and Thompson under contract
