GRAND FINAL WEEK
Can we have a public holiday today anyway? Asks return to workers
HOW DO YOU SLEEP WHILE THE REST OF US CRY: As locals continue to feel the sting of a lost grand final, by one point, countless have contacted the Standard with the same question:
Gav can we just have today off anyway, because we aren’t ready to go back to work and pretend like everyone’s okay yet?
That sentiment is strongest from Standard readers who, in a type of cruelty beyond reason, have commuted to their jobs in Sydney.
One reader who is taking the loss particularly hard, wrote to us and said ‘Misso can’t get me out of bed, I think we just need a day more to grieve before the city can start pumping again, win, lose, or draw’
The Lord Mayor and Newcastle City Council have been contacted for comment.
