Alot of it has fallen apart because those in charge of Newcastle
are a little dodgy.

A little dodgy? Being a former Novocastrian now living in
Wellington I can guarantee that the Demise of the Newcastle
Breakers had NOTHING to do with the players not being paid and more
to do with "Dodgy Dealings" between the Jets owner, Con
Constantine, his side kick Remo Nogarotto (The man responsible for
driving the Northern Spirit into the ground!) and the old NSL
boses!

Yeah, but I'm a mod and I couldn't say that

I don't mind saying it on your behalf!!! 
I can also state that Former Newcastle Breakers Striker and
now Fox Sports Commentator Andy Harper, who was the head of the
Professional Footballers Assossiaction at the time, missed not one
but two penalties in the Newcastle Breakers last evey match against
his former club Marconi. Had at least one of them hit the back of
the net then the Breakers would have won the match and finished in
the Top Six, Marconi would have been 7th and out of the
playoffs and the NSL would have found it very difficult to
kick them out of the League...
Sound Dodgy???

And the Icing on the Cake...
Tony Labozetta was President of Marconi Stallions in 2000 when
all this mess was unfolding. It was no surprise that later that
year he was voted to the role of Chairman of the NSL not long
after...
OK I think i'm done!

Interesting, although not surprising, the old NLS was widely
criticised for being political. . .

Juicy stuff C-Diddy! I smell a whistle-blowing book in the

The old NSL was heavily biased towards NSW Clubs, hence why half the League (Northers Spirit, Syd Olympic, Syd United, Parramatta Power, Marconi, Wollongong Wolves, Newcastle Breakers) were from that part of the world. When it came time to elect the NSL Board they all stuck together and voted in "their" man, Mr Labozetta.

Apparently one of the argentinians is at a Chinese club and one of
the brazilians is still trialling elsewhere.
The brazilians dont sound like they are in the same league as Daniel , Cleberson, Reinaldo, Campos and Cassio however just on pedigree alone.
