I thought Troy parted with Tinks
Read him described as "outgoing head of HSG"
That might just be because once the horse auction is done we are the only thing left in hunter sports group.
He has left HSG and all related Tinks companies.
He is only remaining at the Jets to facilitate the sale.
Boys selling the club and doing it tough......:whistling::whistling:

That was the Liverpool game. The warrior signs in the back give it away.
I only watch the teams with an actual chance of winning the EPL hence why I don't watch much of Liverpool to know:tongue:Quote:

These blokes actually doing anything of note or just on a celebrity junket.
Quite possibly the most embarrassing thing I've seen from the Jets organisation (huge call I know).Quote:

Middleby walks into a bar.
Bartender: Why the long face?
hilarity ensues
I can see it now:
visits to Liverpool and Manchester United. Sold to Rotherham.
more like:
visits to Liverpool and Manchester United. Almost sold to Rotherham. Not sold. No one wants. Had holiday.
Lol. Too true.Quote:

And it appears Middleby only took one tie.
****ING BRAVOQuote:
I dont normally get to fired up or am overly critical as I have no idea what it is like to run an A League fclub (for the record I doubt anyone who comments here does...) but i am a bit over a few issues.
1) Constantely signing injured players. Flores is the excpetion here he is a gamble worth taking. I was excited by Celeski but if he is out until round three, then 4 weeks to get his fitness back.. thats the best part of half the season gone on a bloke who has a 1 year contract.
Our new striker is far from fit (has been in a fair paddock i think) so how long until he is up to speed. Kanata (who seriosuly needs to have a good year) is still having knee issues as well. What is happening with the medical side of the club. This could all just be bad luck rather than bad management and if this was something new i would probably put it down to that but it is ground hog day.
2) Letting players go. Goodwin (who i was never a huge fan of, i know others are... maybe i am wrong) but to let him go without a very clear understanding of who will take his spot is very poor form.
3) consistently missing out on players. Let's be honest who would you sign for Melbourne City or the Jets? Not many are taking the Jets on that when you consider the excitment around City. Let's face it despite the salary cup there is a pecking order probably led by Vicotry, Brisbane, Sydney's stocks are rising already. The only way to change this is to have success on the field.... which you can't have unless you have the right players.... pick the visious cycle here....
4) this is petty i know but, Michael Bridges get off socail media and get to finding a buyer for the club. I am sure that you guys are doing what needs to be done but posting photos on yourself with past players, at the Liverpool game and with Sir Alex is not a good look and honeslty looks matter. As a member i want to believe you are hard at work... not enjoying the perks of office.
5) Another petty one Why are you guys still runnign around in ISC kit at training when you have a new sponser in BKL? These things matter and are not hard to manage (i assume)
Anyway thats' my 2 cents.
Someone posted this on the Herald Website
Can assure you it wasn't me as I only read there stuff not contribute with dimwits
Even if it was you: agree F$&@"g BravoQuote:

I could try and explain some of it if you wanted me too.
However it is easier just to say: Tinkler. He isn't making it easy
Floor is yours. Be our guestQuote:

His first point - injured players come cheap. Helps when you have no money backing you to hand players desperate to stay in the professional game. Playing some games in the season is better than having no player at all.
Players are leaving due to the uncertainty around the club.
Three point a and. B but related to new players, why would you sign for us? Not assured of anything.
The Micky bridges thing I have issues with. Prick ought to do some ****ing work for once
Why not just pay 23 locals to do the job and get flogged every week??
Would come cheaper and everyone would be happy even if we got flogged
Bollocks. Everyone would complain that there is no investment in the team.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
With the salary floor you would be paying them overs any way, may as well take the gamble on a few injured players and hope they reclaim their form and perform with cheap local players and cast offs as backups for if/when the gamble fails. At least with this approach you might be lucky and go on a run of games before the house of cards falls over.Quote:

Having said that we were linked to the Spaniard before we signed jeronimo and Steele and I'm assuming that after he feel through we believed we could land poortaloo so could free up a spot for an extra attacking player. The problem is that we still have no LB or a solid CM and we have only Australian spots left to offer, with the added bonus that we don't have aus marquee or youth marquee to offer according to big Phil in the herald the other day, which is only going to make things even more difficult, let's hope billy the kid pulls up well from his surgery.
I honestly think that our club has every intention of trying to get the best team on the park.Quote:

I just don't think they are any ****ing good at it.
And herein lies the problem. Who hires these muppets? Middleby. Middleby needs to go so we can get a decent administrator in who knows how to ****ing run a football successfully, Middleby doesn't and by the time he gets something right, we will be so far behind the rest of the league, it's not funny.Quote:
