G'day guys,

I run www.facebook.com/Newcastlefootballhistory and i am trying to track down any/all matchday programs for Jets/United/Breakers games both home and away. 

The couple of times i have been over to watch us play in Wellington i havent noticed if there is a matchday program that is sold due to the joviality reached in the pre match beverages.

If anyone is able to help out with any programs (Photos of covers, willing to scan whole thing) it would be greatly appreciated and would help to fill in the gaps in the history puzzle im trying to complete.

Cheers,

Todd

Ps. Great site, awesome work on all of the different merch you guys have.

I think the Jets/United/Breakers bit should say Phoenix/Knights/Kingz?


Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.


Phoenix fans. We have to win them over one fan at a time.

Would I be right in saying that one of those extremely handsome gentlemen is Kiwi Alan Vest?
