Come off it MKFC, we clearly can't afford a glass in the salary cap environment. Plastic cup half empty, for sure... possibly leaking a little.

How am I being hypocritical??
I on the Local league thread put forward my OPINION that Olympic (in particular) and other NBN State League Clubs shouldn't be playing the larry longball hacking em down game that is prevalent in the NBN. I beleive that we should be expecting much more than that in this day and age. Managers of State League teams are entitled to play long ball larry shit if they want that is their perogative. I just don't agree with it and feel we in Newy should be a bit more cultured than that. THAT IS MY OPINION
In this thread I backed GVE and his right as MANAGER to do things his way and play however he wants and sign whoever he wants. I also used the fictitious analogy where Foz poster "Hawk" was appointed Jets Manager and claimed he as Manager is entitled to play however he sees fit. Hawk as manager is entitled to have us playing long ball larry and that as manager is his entitlement.
Would I agree with this method. **** NO I would be extremely pissed the Jets were playing that way
Would I back Hawk's right to play this way YES 100%.
The HSG Clowns who appointed Hawk to have Jets play this way wuld be in the Member's firing path
NEW THREAD:
Hawk OUT.
Too much longball apparently.
(Sorry Hawk, I gave you a chance)
I just don't see the point in changing coaches when we're mid table. What is the point when we come 5th or 6th with a young team? Yes we've had the odd bad game, last week being a perfect example, but do you really expect changing coaches each year would help? Seems to be working wonders for Sydney. However, should we have a worse season next year, I think GvE's spot would have to be under review.
As for challenging for the title, would I love to see us up there each year? Yup. Is it realistic? Nope, unless we have significant spending and don't pass on top quality players like Griffo.
i will take a peoples poll on who to play and where and give it a go, passing and crossing will be sublime, drop beer prices back to what the workers can buy, add more spirits and put profits back into player recruitment, crowd to run onto field immediately at fulltime, tenz to be improved with appropriate services, uniforms and paytv, open policy on tifo and ground announcer to ridicule opposition and whip up stad support, free transport and the big screen to show all controversy so the ref can change his decision to the correct one, finally players to put on xmas pantomime with hesk as baby jesus.
Any chance of a pool for tenzo?
pool at tenz check with movie making facilities, 5% beer check. I will stand down after said infrastructure is in place
and nf foz participants get 20% discount across the board.
I reckon i should get the gig, after all I have a coaches licence, fully accredited by the FFA. It means I can drive the players around.
I won the A-League on Football Manager 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. Defo my gig.
I won the ACL 2 times in row, A-League regular season and finals every season on football manager in 4-5 seasons on Football Manager 2010. And won regular season in my 1st on football manager 2013. I brought back Joel. Which makes me clearly a better manager than GVE as well
:blush:Provocative user name there, had any erotic PM's from any members?
Fair point, but my opinion of that is that it reflects the closeness of the A-League that 6 teams are within 4 points of each. Yes, there are the four others, who we should be trying to catch but with out current squad we can only improve. TBH, as long as we make the finals I will be happy.
:gent:
Tenzo polo shirts - Out
Back on track. I thought what Middleby had to say in his interview the other day was quite telling. The clubs expectations were a top 6 at the start of the season and nothing has changed from that.
^^^ Half way there then. Completely agree though, Gary has done enough for another season, just needs to improve again next season.
I reackon every year our aim should be not to get relegated.
Then we can have a massive fap at the end of the year when we "succeed".
Ricki Herbert is copping a lot of shit for Wellington's performances this season… some people don't seem to realise that someone has to come in the bottom few positions every season.
Considering we're above Perth and Brisbane, last year's grand finalists, & Wellington and Melbourne who were probably considered finals contenders at the start of the season, and Sydney.. I'm not sure what the problem is exactly?
Melb Vict have ALWAYS been a strong side and will always recruit the better players.
The Scum have been building their side over the last 7-8 goddamn years… They seem to know what the word "stability" means.
Adelaide are 50-50 and always have been… good one season, useless the next. They just happen to be good this season on the back of some impressive imports.
I've said it before, I'm not GVE's biggest fan but I can see what he's trying to do and I think we'll have a really strong team next year.
I'd be happier if we finished ahead of the Gypos - even if that meant coming 9th
But in all seriousness, if we don't aim for the finals then what are we doing. I personally think we should be aiming higher
Keep him. He has shown he is a brilliant tactition and tht he is in charge. Why play regs, that wouldn't show how incharge he is.
Eat a dick gary
****ing aye. Gutted he didn't take the Sydney job :(
