NPL 2025

South played Preston 2 weeks ago literally in front of thousands and no incident between spectators occured. For whatever reason your club clearly thinks that the Eaton mall brigade are going to cause trouble.
Because you we're segregated, we only have one entry point and with the renovations happening, we can't properly segregate the fans. I don't like the decision, i hate it in fact, but i can't completely blame the club. The club shouldn't have to do anything like that, if only people behaved.

People parked on both aughtie drive and on the opposite side where south main entrance is. Post game they walked to their cars no dramas, no problems, no issues. Same as when we played south in the cup and earlier this season.

No issues

- 6 months to change the venue
- works have been ongoing for a year and known about
- speaking to people at our club we even asked to reverse the fixtures pre season and your mob said no.

Weve played Preston 3 time sin the past 12 months or so and all I can offer is that both times I went to BT Connor the people there were absolutely fucking amazingly friendly... Me with my Hellas jackat and beanie and scarf and everything, looking every bit the wog that I am was met with smiles at the gate, the volunteers and the food/beer stands... "Enjoy the game", "Hope the best team wins" "Good luck" was all I heard.... absolutely chalk and cheese to what it was in the 90s.....

I hope the Preston fans that came to Lakeside enjoyed our "home" as much as I enjoyed theirs?

If others had/have other experiences that partly on them and what they went into these games expecting..... Oakleigh are neanderthals, not surprised at how the engage with all the other clubs around them.... There is a reason why the other Greek founded clubs want nothing to do with them....
 
I'm with you on that, i want to go to the game, was looking forward to it all week. I can't do anything about it, it sucks. You think Preston fans are let down, well us few Oakleigh fans are even more let down, we wanted to go experience an Oakleigh game in front of thousands of fans, that opportunity has now been taken away from us because of a bunch of fans who can't behave themselves, but no one will spare a thought for us Oakleigh fans, we're always the bad guys.
You wanted to witness a game "at home" in front of thousands of away fans???? Sure ... that makes sense.

We all loved it and were stoked to be back.

As we've said you guys are let down by the stadium management for food and drink but other than.

Great set-up and facilities.

Even people in preston and south merch having dinner down claredon post game was class.
