Link for those who want to OD on these tears?
Here’s one from their forum:
Went to game at Spartans after watching a rather spiteful affair between Marconi and Apia. Again locked out with security guard on the door to send everybody away. Watched the game from the fence. Pathetic organization with the game stopped at various times to fund the match ball when it went out of play. Congratulations to Football NSW for determining the top four not on match performance but on their own points allocation. Let it be noted that the FFA took no action against CCM or Smurfs recently at Leichardt, nor Bonnyrig v Oakleigh, nor Melbourne Victory v Man Utd when flares were ignited. I understand the NPL is run by Football NSW and not the FFA but some consistency of approach should be considered. Double standards ?
Always the victims.

APIA defeat Marconi 1-0 in the elimination semi final. 
Scenus Amazium made an all too rare appearance at the other game, hectic stuff:
Much better crowd at Manly than Marconi
That’s awesome stuff, why would you want to get rid of the finals series?
Does warm the heart to see that kind of pitch invasion from all the ball kids.
Don’t they do a playoff between 2nd and 2nd last above?
No relegation in any NSWPLs this season with top four going from NPL2 to NPL1. Top six from NPL 3 to NPL2. Central Coast United will be in NPL2 next season.

Scenes tonight in the grand final qualifier between Olympic and Manly. Nil, nil at full time, Olympic scored in the 107th minute and Manly equalised in the 122nd minute.
Manly were down 3-1 in the penalty shootout but won 4-3 to book a spot in the grand final.
Pretty chuffed my nephew scored the winning penalty.
