Stubbins is in a hell of a lot of denial about things. Not once has he taken any responsibility or ownership for the sides issues and seems clueless with his answers as to what is needed to rectify things
Being this is the case is it any wonder with things going on he is probably so far from reality of the position he has taken and got himself into.
Serious question if he is still in charge V Roar how many bodyguards is he gonna need to sit on the bench??
Does he not realise today by screwing Griffo over he has 10k of people who hate his guts??
Those new benches are staying.
Coincidence?
He still has to get out to them.....
But I have no idea what he's thinking. He's pretty much got all the fans offside with this now, why would he stay. Everyone wants him gone.
GVE was disliked by many in his final year but I feel there is genuine hatred for Stubbins in the way he has gone about aligning himself with Tinkler and screwing over this club. The ironic thing is that the dumb arse doesn't even realise that he is just a pawn in Tinkler's little game against the FFA.
That was the plan I had heard. To be distributed around all grounds.
We won't need ours as the squad s too small for subs.
The goings on today have finally confirmed what I and a few others have been saying for a while....that Michael Bridges is all about Michael Bridges. Instead of standing in solidarity with his counterparts who were sacked he has now clearly aligned himself with Stubbins and Tinkler. As a former player of the club this is totally unforgivable but at the same time I am not surprised. Someone once referred to him as "two hats" as he likes to immerse himself in numerous roles so that his tentacles reach far and wide and his fingers in various pies so to speak. At the moment he is the Assistant coach and Emerging Jets u/18's coach plus on the side he dabbles in being a representative for a Players Agent firm....now things are really starting to add up aren't they!!! There is also talk of him putting on the boots again next year for Lambton Jaffas.....I hope he gets smashed....the ****ing grub!!!!
What's the bet the player agent the herald spoke to saying the younger players will fall in line was Bridges.
Judas Sold out Newy Football
My bandwagon.. it grows.

How the **** is stubbins supposed to sit on the bench at the next home game with how he has acted. The idiot looks like a deer in headlights at press conferences now and now he has run off like some crying school girl to tinkler how could any man show there face?
He has had little credibility for most of the season and now this pathetic childish act surely would make any man with an ounce of self awareness hide away for a long time.
As for the fat **** tinkler...that piece of shit is from this area of the world, surely he knows how we, as people from this great part of the world, react to this sort of stuff. It's all well and good to come out and say that some people in newy have shit on him but what does he expect. Just because he made some money doesn't mean firstly you are immune to being called out when you are being a ****wit and secondly forget everything you learn when you grow up.
Can only hope that gallop has the balls to do something today before the good people who have lost jobs and are being effected the most aren't lost to the jets and newcastle. Under the right management they could be anything....under the current regime we are little more than a dis functional circus.
I suspect Tinkler is loving every second of this. Getting some satisfaction on tormenting Newy after all it did to him and all that crap. Laughing at the outrage.
I expect him to try and draw it out after this weekend and stop FFA taking his license back.
I agree. I don't want the piece of shit fixing it either, I want him gone. There is no way possible that he can salvage anything in this. He could buy any players in the world and any manager but his place in history, not only in sport in newcastle is set in stone. The, and I use this term lightly, man is ....**** I can't even find the words for how low I think he is, the old term "ankle" doesn't even describe how low he is.
According to interview with Zane, the players had issues with Stubbins from wk 7 of preseason. The revolt had been building for ages.
**** me, only seven weeks? I'm sure Gary lasted longer than that!
I've had serious gripe with him ever since he gave the players about 4 days off after getting hidings by brisbane and sydney in townsville. **** off Phil
What interests me, and I think is the perfect example of the type of manager Stubbins is, is what Clacka has said on his TWG and KOFM interviews that I've watched in that Stubbins has only ever given him positive feedback, only ever given him more responsibilities, but when Clacka was sacked he did not hear from Phil and still hasn't. This would more than likely be some kind of indication on how Tinkler does his business, and the effects of that, but I know if I have a guy working directly under and very close to me if I find any news even similar to that I'd at least shoot the guy a thankyou text or something like that. But Clacka has said he has heard absolutely nothing - he's still waiting to hear from Phil.
To me, this doesn't reak of working-class, straight down the line British style coach. This to me shows Phil is a coward.
I agree. If they report to you, you do the hiring and firing not someone else.
We had the opportunity for a culture change already this year - that was when Phil Stubbins became the coach. If he has set his expectations out clearly, both of himself, his players and his coaching staff then he can hold people to account. That's the time when he can say to the players you're either in or you're out. However maybe what we're seeing is the result of the conversations on expectations earlier in the year.
I don't think Stubbins knows how he wants to play. I don't know if Stubbins knows the sort of culture he wants in his club. IF HE DOES, then he isn't very good at implementing it or communicating it to those who need to implement it. A good manager in any field should be willing to accept contributions from the team of people they're responsible for. However the ultimate decision on direction (or whatever) comes from the manager.
Anyone else notice a certain MB has been very quiet since he resigned from his position? Seems he is taking a very low profile, which isn't usually his style. Wouldn't by any chance have anything to do with having his fingers in too many pies and came to the realisation that he was going to get burnt!!!
The truth may eventually come out or it may not but don't for one second believe he just resigned for the "way the players were treated" as reported in the media.
maybe Bridges wants to be a part of the Jets 'new regime' in the event of FFA taking control, and he believes that any link with the current organisation will prevent that from happening
Can anyone please enlighten as to what Stubbins "style of play" is ?? Reading about it and watching games I have no idea. At least with GVE it seemed clear albeit not working.
Mate, I will just say that the five that were axed are absolutely filthy with him, read into that what you wish but to say he had "ulterior motives" is an understatement!
Agree though, there are more important things to worry about but I doubt if he will be back at the club....sorry to spoil all those supporter's dreams of seeing good old Bridgey "the legend" become the Jets Head coach one day! :roflz:
