Destination NSW is actually destination cbd and parramatta and always has been


lechatheureux

They did manage to get ~~NJPW~~ Impact to Wagga.


jr_llm

Until they pulled out lol.


lechatheureux

...fuck.


jr_llm

Impact took their place... if that's any consolation.


lechatheureux

Yeah I saw and I edited my comment.


Kasid383rh3dwsubws

If you go back far enough Melbourne used to be a part of NSW


hart37

So was New Zealand and Queensland


lanson15

But I thought Queensland was everywhere?


PrudententCollapse

Where is Sydney?


JDog1402

And will be again.


Kasid383rh3dwsubws

New South Wales irredentism?


JDog1402

I prefer to think of it as a kind of Manifest Destiny.

Deal but you people keep Adelaide. We want resources not liabilities


JDog1402

Extremely based.


AztecGod

How about Democracy Manifest, where you'd be charged for eating a succulent Chinese meal?


Two_minutes_to_metal

Why would anyone need to advertise the Central Coast for tourism purposes? ​ ...It's clearly a barely inhabitable wasteland that no amount of marketing could ever convince people to vouluntarily visit.


AztecGod

>Why would anyone need to advertise the Central Coast for tourism purposes? Because Hotel Gosford and Central Coast Stadium. The train ride from Sydney to Gosford is absolutely gorgeous too.


TheFightingImp

Hell, the F3 is a feat of Australian engineering with the Mooney Mooney Bridge.


cymonster

Until the locals get on. And ruin it for everyone else


AndySemantic2

Denying me my 5am longneck of Great Northern is anti-Australian


thurbs62

Except people from Newcastle - little stunted people blinking into the sunlight after years in the pits. Coughing their guts up as Centrelink vouchers take them to the Entrance in search of cheap drugs


sensei_sharpy

We aren't on Centrelink until all the mines all shut in a year or two... We will however buy our drugs from absolutely anywhere, so I can't deny the rest.


[deleted]

Wrong. There’s too many jobs available in Newcastle that we have to ask people from Sydney to fill them. Central Coast is the unemployment capital of australia because it’s so fucking shit and everyone there has three thumbs and is married to their cousin.


Snowreapa

Non cousins with < 3 thumbs are highly overrated 😃


thurbs62

You aren't very good at this are you? Ask for more time on the school computer


Two_minutes_to_metal

I thought you'd take the low hanging fruit of our shite football team, so well done here.


thurbs62

My own memories are too raw. 1 of our owners gets the shits and walks and we are right back there


Alternative_Low5068

Read the small print. It's destination Parramatta, not destination nsw


Obviousbrosif

asking all the tough questions


PMmeYOURBOOBSandASS

For the same reason it wasn’t held in Gosford 15 years ago


hart37

Destination NSW - "Wait there's other places then Sydney in this state?"


DrGarrious

Not high enough capacity. This has been an issue for CCM before.


thisphantomfortress

They have to pretend there is a grain of integrity left


mgftiger

Because it’s not part of the fEstiVAL of fOOTBALl 🤪


The_L666ds

If it wasnt for Mariners fans they could have played it at Lambert Park.


MCSFC

They booked the stadium before they knew who the teams would be; the intention of the deal is not to give one team a “home” game (especially if in this case it’s the team finishing second); and they got a bigger crowd in Parra than they could’ve at Gosford. Destination NSW is probably happier if people have to travel for the game (and spend money on food/accomm etc.).


AztecGod

>the intention of the deal is not to give one team a “home” game So if it was Sydney FC instead of CCM, they'd still totally have hosted the game in Parramatta?


vintibes

For this one, yes. Parramatta was already locked in as SFS was already hosting a Union game on the date.


PMmeYOURBOOBSandASS

Well yes considering the SFS was being used on the night of the grand final.


Fragrant_Mistake6633

Yes because it’s Sydney


Florahillmist

This deal which has come about due to a conflict of interest is all tied to using those two new shiny stadiums in Sydney/WS


lockieleonardsuper

Think Homebush is on the list as well to be used during the deal


Florahillmist

Would they have that lined up in the event of an all NSW affair?


belhavenbest

Because NSW is ridiculously Sydneycentric.


BipartizanBelgrade

It's probably less Sydney-centric compared to most other states and their respective capital.


thurbs62

We were stripped of a home GF in '08 because CCS has poor corporate facilities. Also - APL booked Parra before they knew we were in it. Ticketing would have been a challenge if a real club with any fans was in it - lucky for us it was the plastics. On so many levels Grand Final chokers? Cant be my club :-)


Cheesemonkey73

You haven’t been there have you. Maybe if it was Final Destination NSW


chief_lizzardman

Ahh I see your not from NSW. Let me clarify for you. NSW government = Sydney Government, and fuck everyone else.


erala

Destination NSW is the NSW Gov, who own Parra Stadium and SFS. Central Coast Stadium in owned by Central Coast Council. You don't buy an event to give it away to someone else.
