If true, good. Given the clubs shallow pockets and 'skill' at recruiting, Morten as a 10 with him?
Thoughts????
If true, goodbye to the big Kokko.

Just tweeted LMcK and asked. His response "not as yet news to me"
The "not as yet' is the interesting bit.
It means mind your own business.Quote:

So according to herald we are in 'advanced negotiations' with georgevski. Someone on here has been asking for us to go after him for a couple of years.
Anyway there is a trend I'm noticing and liking about these rumoured acquisitions, and it's not just the gypo striker and georgevski. They are aggressive pricks and mentally tough, something we lack terribly
Within a week of living in Newcastle enjoying the beach lifestyle and generally relaxed atmosphere of the town his aggression and mental toughness will disappear. Once the team starts losing and he realises the club is not professionally administered like Melbourne Victory he's going to either throw the towel or start looking for greener pastures. Frustration levels will rise and like Carney and others he's going to hold the club to ransom.Quote:

If the club was signing ten players of his standard plus 5 marques on top of that I'd be enthusiastic. But Georgevski will be touted by the Jets as the 2nd coming when the reality is he's pretty much the minimum standard any club looking to win the league should be playing.
That would be meQuote:

I mean what do you think someone like Georgevski will get paid to come here ? If it's anything less than double what Victory are offering him I'd be very surprised.
Back in Cons time players didn't have the leverage they do now given the growth of football in Asia and the fact that players have already tested the waters for them in these other countries / leagues.
It's not specific to this sport either. Player associations / representation is getting stronger and players are essentially running clubs - especially the smaller less successful ones.
I'd love to hear what Phil Stubbins views on the club and players were from his time at the Jets. Players told us he had no idea and so on - but how do we know for sure it wasn't a case of a player revolt because he'd upset the status quo of doing **** all for a better than they deserve salary year in year out ?
you guys are gonna get excited about him the same way you did for Boogard aren't you.
Can you imagine Boogaard and Giorgevski having a duel to see who can get sent first who can give away a pen first or who can give away the best foul etcQuote:

Of course we should fix our constant problem areas of shit attack and shit defence by signing a garbage fullback.
Yay Jetz.
He is a terrible sibning.Quote:

Plus they are not ****s like Georgevski
You remember him trying to Cantona Bitch Nichols??
When has any of our blokes done that since the day Zads won us the F3 derby after 14 seconds when he went straight through the back of a Gypo ??
