GVE Gooooooooone

[Thomas477]

Too rigid and predictable in attack not organised enough in pressing

I thought the first half was alright to be honest. We had Melbourne on the run we just could not finish.

football is a 90 minute game and if you can't play properly for 90 minutes then your in trouble

Only in the second quarter. It was very scrappy before that.

Gve out for insensitive treatment of brown and also pathetic fans out with their ironic cheers at brown getting dragged, f$&k off back to your armchair!!!! I'll admit brown made some mistakes but seriously if deadshits took their blinkers off they'd realise he wasn't only one out there making mistakes.

But at least everyone else looked interested in playing for the shirt. Brown doesn't.

If I wanted to watch mediocre football, I'll go watch the amateur comps, but I support the jets to see professionals play, and quite simply, Brown isn't good enough.

Fact is that in 28 games he has done nothing. Should we accept a forward to not have scored in 28 games for the club?

Though I do agree with the fact that GvE needs to look at the fact that we're missing good cover for a few positions.

[MFKS]

When we get rid of this **** can we go as far as ****ing him off from anything to do with the Emerging Jets program??


This **** has NFI and can't even translate what he has read in a KNVB manual onto the park. So many glaring problems of implementing a style.

The **** should be nowhere near ****ing up our juniors for years to come with his SHIT

What he ****ing said. Sick of dropping in and watching 90minutes of pure shite. I'd hate to be Furns and have to drive 2 hours to watch this, I'd possibly hang myself off the gypo bridge on the way home

[militiamon]

At least furns gets drunk these days, softens the blow a bit no doubt.

[furns]

rofl if I drank and then drive I wouldnt be attending too many matches ;)

I find watching football at a football match overrated tbh

Ned Zelic In

[furns]

Said it before - will say it again: There isnt enough hair product in the Greater Hunter area to cater for a Ned Zelic management run.

Okon a much cheaper option. And he has actually managed. Although come to think of it, I would advise Jets management to get Milicic in. How he wasnt given the Heart job is beyond me.

[militiamon]

So when does Griff officially take over the coaching role?

Agree, said months ago that Milicic would be a great choice. Been involved twice in the last 4 seasons now with setting a club up from scratch as an assistant coach. Also, people seem to forget that he was at the club in the very first season of the HAL so there is a link there between him and this club and the town.

Would love to see Zelic over emphasise everything like he does on SBS at 6 Managers press engagements a week. Would provide some great material for a giggle

Not wanting to see the Griff fail or anything but his signing does seem like the last act of a desperate man.

( IE GVE's Future is up shit creek so he goes to the Griff to turn it around to get him a new deal at Jets HQ and save his arse. We as fans are in a no win situation here. Griff doesn't turn in we are all disappointed and if he does turn it on in Griffo style we keep GVE)

Pffffft, you blokes making out that WE chose Griff.
Griff chose US and praise be that He did.
GVE should get the ass regardless and he knows that he'll get another gig. Pretty much one of the coaches has to die before anyone is allowed into the group discussion on available coaches.

It's a little known fact that all the current A-League coaches are the same managers who started game one, season one of the A-League, just that some are now at different clubs (like Ernie Merrick).

Thanks Sanch.

Ergo: the more things change the more they stay the same.

[sanchez]

Do agree though. Players and coaches alike in the a-league seem to be continually regurgitated and offered 2nd, 3rd and 4th chances they don't neccessarily deserve, just because they've been "in the league" before...stand up the GVE's, Nick Wards and countless other mediocrities that seem to hang around like bad smells. (Really hoping I can eat my words Re Nick Ward).

c*nt, you're killing football in Newcastle single-handedly.

f*ck you.

[sammydog]

I still believe we have a talented squad. But they have ****ing been coached to not play, to have any creativity stifled.

Its not good enough and GVE needs to be punted before football in this region is irreversibly damaged.

Give Deans (has to be better than GVE) till the end of the season and start looking elsewhere NOW.

Can't believe that there a few supporters out there who actually think Bridges should take over from GVE. One thing....he has never coached at any level, and the other....history has shown that it hardly ever works when a current player gets given the coaching role working with his ex-team-mates. Sure, put him in a role with the Emerging Jets or Youth team but we can't afford to "experiment" anymore and put a player in a head coaching role just because he's a "good bloke" and played EPL

I think your on the money, but another contributing factor will be Herald reporters wanting to be the first to break the story. So they will throw anything out on social media.

If its untrue, they still get the paper sales and internet hits despite throwing rumour and innuendo out there. Forgetting the GVE issue for now, I hate them doing this as it does nothing for stability. Then the Herald will also wonder why their relationship with the club is so bad.


But if it happens to be remotely true, they claim that the broke the story. Its a win win scenario as far as the herald is concerned but crap for the fans.

[q-money]

can see both sides, herald trying to get the scoop - while HSG are well known for wanting to control the media agenda, why would they give up their own exclusivity to the herald, who they loathe?

[NewyTy]

G'day guys. Long time reader, first time poster. I was just on NBN news talking about GVE. Hopefully the club can clarify the situation tomorrow so we can move forward (hopefully without GVE). Either way, this can't go on much longer as the team need to focus on their game and the trip to the coast next week.

I'm probably in the minority on this, but I think it's pretty ****ed up what The Herald has done here. Looking likely now that this story is untrue, yet the damage that it has done is quite significant. Journos have to put their hands up and apologise to GVE and the club on this one.

Complete lack of respect shown last night, just to make sure they broke the story first....if in fact there was a story.

Actually just a thought

I reckon the club might announce it first thing tomorrow like the griff story to f**k the herald over so they can't have on the Monday morning headlines "sacked" much like they couldn't put griff returned on Saturdays paper

The speculation is certainly something that we can do without. But while we are still performing poorly and GvE remains out of contract next season it will continue. I agree it needs to be sorted.

I don't understand the problem with what the Herald have done? They're speculating on some info that GVE is punted. Obviously it's something other than the foz because the majority wanted him gone the whole season, and last so there's nothing new here. In any case, what possible harm could their report do that hasn't already been done?

The team's morale and confidence seems to be at an all time low. The players don't seem to give a **** anymore, and GVE clearly doesn't bother with a HT talk. Jets management already look like muppets for not sacking him last season. If this article proves to be bullshit, no-one will remember it by next weekend. Either we get a positive result on the coast, and even less people will remember it, or we lose and the pressure will heap further on GVE, and rightly so.

FFS Bridges if you're going to be Assistant do the right thing and retire from playing. Other then that I have no dramas with this, should be interesting to see how Zane goes.

Also no problems with GVE as Technical Director of the emerging jets program, how ever I'm not sure about Deans having the youth team.

The way this appears to have been done with no one new being employed. If bridges were to retire, I couldn't see the club filling the space.

The whole Player/Assistant Coach thing is a bit of a stretch though. Do one or the other, surely there is a conflict doing both. That aside I have no issues with Bridges as Assistant. Jury is out for me on Zane being appointed.

[The Dunster]

Because I'm a complete ****ing idiot I will keep turning up to support the Jets regardless of who the coach is. If I had the slightest bit of intelligence, I would have walked at the end of season three.
That being said, if Clayton Zane is handed the Reins I'll be posting regularly in the Zane Out thread.

[militiamon]

I never thought I would be saying this but -- why not Deans as caretaker?

Zane has been less than impressive with the youth team from all reports (MFKS plz correct me if I'm wrong), and didn't he coach the W-League Galacticos team (with Barbieri, De Vanna, van Egmond, German chick etc.) to a disappointing 5th place which effectively destroyed our entire W-League outfit?

Probably being harsh but the move doesn't strike me with a great deal of confidence.

I'm also with you. Why disrupt the Youth team as well as the First team? Is it so GvE and Deans can work together still in the youth setup?

I'm also waiting for MFKS to tell us what his thoughts are on Zane's performance as youth team coach.

[BodyNovo]

isn't deans just a yes boy to GVE anyway, i think a fresh word from Zane might be the kick start the team need.

i think it would be better though if they went and got someone new like okon, milicic or papas right away though so they can have this season and the off season to start changing things for the better.

Deans isn't exactly associated with GVE though. He was kind of a club-assigned staffy who just got put on whichever coach came in.

I think it's a pretty big statement by the club if they were to appoint Zane as caretaker as opposed to Deans. Deans has had the chances/experiences to warrant that caretaker job at the very least (he's statistically the most successful coach in HAL history with a 66.67% win record). The lack of faith shown to him by the club is huge here - wouldn't be surprised if he moved on tbh.

A thought - Deans may see the interim role for what it is, decided not to put his hat in the ring in hopes of getting the full-time gig for next season?

[howardyou]

Just Announced - Clacka is the new coach. I'm not sure about this move - Will he have the support of the players? Can't be any worse i guess, but doesn't have a super record as a youth or W-League coach.

I heard that GVE had finally lost the support of a few senior players.

[Bon]

Yeah, TWG has it that "Youth team coach Clayton Zane is expected to be given the reins on an interim basis till the end of the season until a long-term replacement is found."

It does seem odd that he would be given the interim job over Deans.. Not sure how I feel about Clacka at the helm..

[hawk]

let's see what 'inZane in the membrane' can do

Why? If GVE stays on as emerging jets coach this thread can still be considered valid

As for Zane as far as I am concerned the jury is still out on him.

Jets Yoof in the NBN went down hill after he took after from Pappas in not just quality of play but results.

Last years NBN was a disaster except for the fact we blooded a pile of young blokes.


Our results in the NYL are nothing to fap about either when you consider these blokes are together all year against other teams who congregate just for the NYL


As for his coaching well he has more of an idea on implementing the GVE way of play than Gary did so that's a positive.

That also being said I feel a great coach who was a former player should get good results from his players who play the role he used to play back in the day. On that note Kale has regressed in the last 12 months under Zane.

That being said Zane always picks Kale despite his indifferent form and rarely hooks him so obviously has some love for the bloke.

I am not convinced he is the man for the job but will give him the support to take the opportunity. Bloke pairs Kale and Griffo together this weekend against the Scum then I am calling for a statue for the bloke though

Any chance you would know, in all of those games, how many times we won by more than 1 goal?
I reckon you would be able to count it on one hand, we very very rarely put teams away during his time!

Love it when old threads get bumped.
You get the whole picture instead of just some drunken diatribe that everyone follows on with.

The world is now a better place for me. After Friday night I was thinking how was I going to endure the rest of the season with the Jets under GVE. They weren't playing to bad (they weren't great either) and conceded two soft goals just before half time and just when the team needed some guidance and confidence the coach pretty much walked out on them. To me it showed how little GVE respected the players. Thank god Jets management saw it the same way and have now gotten rid of him.

Not sure how Clackers will go but I hope he does well. Local boy an all.

Confirmation due in 6-8 weeks

[380]

It seems if this were to be true it would be a reflection of our financial situation or lack thereof. Obviously Bridges is the poverty pack coach and all we can afford.

[stopper2]

Bridges would be more suited to the Emerging Jets Director position if they want to give him a role in the club. For the sake of this club the clowns running it have to get the next Head Coach 100% right. Bridges is a massive gamble, even greater than bringing GVE back for a 2nd time. A player who is suddenly promoted to the coaching role is very rarely successful at coaching his former team-mates in any sport. Anyone think of a coach who has succeeded in this situation? I recall Farina as player-coach of Brisbane Strikers back in 1997 but there have been more misses than hits.

[plague]

Terry Venables.

[lquiquer]

Guus

[pv4]

How anyone at the Jerks can look at the likes of Aloisi, Muscat, etc and think that fastforwarding a previously untested, even at state league and/or nyl level, player is absurd.

Regardless of if I had a vendetta against the player or not - if the Jerks made ANY player in a position similar to Bridges our head coach I would spit chips. The fact that it's Bridges just makes it even sweeter, or more bitter, or both.

This is an absolute disc race. If Bridges is made head coach, I want to see the PFA sue the club. I would want the FFA to revoke our licence.

[pv4]

I lay this out right here right now: if Michael Bridges is made head coach of the Jets for next season, I become a CCM supporter.

Btw inb4 "you're already one, WLG"

How the ****ing bloke could even be considered to head it up is as absurd as making him first team coach.

Give him a job coaching one of the Emerging Jets sides for a few years and get some form on the board if you want before he should even be considered for any type of coaching role in the NYL/HAL set up

Surely they wouldn't do this! Would they?

[Thomas477]

Member, isn't it technically with NNSWF, as opposed to the Jets? Like how the w-league team is overseen by NNSWF (and that went so well…)

[Pico]

Emerging jets is a jointly funded and organised body with FFA, NNSWF & the club.

I'd say the FFA kicking in some coin is because its the desired model, NNSWF is large enough to test the model but small enough to be able to get it up and running quickly. It was also announced after Tinklers big issues with his license fee wouldn't be surprised if that was a token gesture by the FFA too.

On the 29th of December 2009 I turned up to Newcastle Jets training facility after we had agreed to a short term deal, I was to sign for 6 months over the period of the Asian Champions League as the team was short on troops. I recall the original conversation when I was contacted by the club, my concern was that i was not match fit and needed a good 6-8 weeks of work under my belt. This was not an issue as there was some time before the Champions league kicked off.

Classic stuff from Dezy. Even managed a pisstake on Bridges. Reader of the forum for sure!
