	Go Jets!!!!!!!!

If someone could confirm for me I can then look at booking some accomadation. In saying that, we don't even have a team yet but I'm sure that will sort itself out in time.

The jets have two home games on Sat instead of the usual Sun. Sat 14th Nov Jets v Rocks is one of them. This info has come through official Jets channels.

I assume the fact we have 2 Sat games this season has been done to accomodate all the other teams fixtures or have we come second in booking the Northgate? It should be interesting to see if it affects the crowd size but another plus factor (co-incidence I am sure) does mean that fans of visiting teams eg. the Rocks can get down here for a change as opposed to the awkward Sunday night. Personally I would love to get to the Metro arena to see the Jets against Eagles but Fridays and that distance make it impossible. Now that the fixtures are out, I said when Essex joined that I was happy that I would get to see more home games, Well I was wrong. With Jets drawn awaty in both Cups/Throphy and the home v away rota means that I am only guaranteed 18 home games this season as opposed to over 20 last year, just means Jets will have to win a few cup matches. Does anyone know where the next round draws are displayed?
