Northern Spirit FC
Northern Spirit Football Club was a football (soccer) club based in North Sydney, Australia. Northern Spirit entered the National Soccer League in the 1998-99 season. Its founding was inspired in part by the success Perth Glory was enjoying as a mainstream club (as opposed to the league's mainstay European migrant founded clubs), as well as an opportunity to tap into the previously unrepresented northern suburbs of Sydney.

—Northern Irish Tourist Board. quoted in New Statesman (London, Aug. 29, 1969)
“Humans are amphibians—half spirit and half animal.... As spirits they belong to the eternal world, but as animals they inhabit time.”
