The Newcastle Jets have come a long way. We used to develop players for other clubs or as a welfare centre for players unable to get contracts elsewhere due to lack of talent of injuries.
Now we are trialling coaches for other clubs to poach.
I wonder how long ago Carl was approached ?
I wonder if the deal with the Petratos brothers, Donachie, Millar and so on were strategic given they and Robinson all share the same Management Agency.
What happened with Robinson and Avid in the MLS was a signal that he couldn't be trusted - and I reckon if we do some digging this WSW deal will be not much different.
Then you have Uga , Langlois, and Ledley also under the Avid Banner.
I reckon Ugarkovich is as good as gone. [Legally no player would be obliged to honour their existing contracts].
