Pens are still worth the same as other goals last time I checked.Quote:

The new coach must have been appointed, as I can't see the club sanctioning a deal for O'Toole without his knowledge. Given he will be coaching the player next year.
That they are but pretty cheap stats for a striker however. At least that part of his game has improved at Brisvegas.Quote:

As for his great crosses...Quote:

Exactly how many of Burns crosses found a team mate??
Zero
They all miss the mark no matter how well flights they look
Actually, it's 8 (according to A-League website). At an Accuracy of 23.5%Quote:

Fold the club. Or at least gut this squad and start again.

And yet there were several weeks in a row, Ernie blamed us having too young a squad to achieve results.Quote:

R: Ask the owner for more money?
E: He's had the place for sale for over a year now. He ain't adding anymore funds to what he would think is a sinking ship.
R: Fair point Ernie, enjoy your payout when it comes through.
E: (Looks blankly at reporter and shuffles away groaning.)
Amazing how you can continually see facts in a way to suit your agenda.Quote:

Based on current form (and history), no.

Seriously, Roy was offered a one year deal last year. I'm sure nobody at the time doubted this move. If he was at the jets this year I'm sure the jets would be on a higher amount of points then they currently are.Quote:

Not really, I have watched all of Brisvegas's games this season and he has been ordinary at best when he has featured in there match day squad and made it onto the park. His form has been terrible hence why he firstly found himself on the bench and ultimately completely out of the squad.Quote:

According to the latest news he has done a deal to return to the Jets just in time before the window closed. 18 month deal apparently.
Maybe we need a thumbs up count not too dissimilar to the RBB's goal count for Roy
Bert must be kick'n back thinking WTF is this amateur hour shite with the club letting him go under him only to bring him back half a season later FFS. Bloke sitting back sipping his Lagavulin not knowing whether to lough or cry at the decision making of club management.
Potential upside, No more Hoff in a advanced role ( all for the bloke at FB ) and the biggest win , Fitzuseless told there is no starting spot for him and find his 37th club in the HAL or more to his standard Blacktown or Marconi.
Yep...email 11:52pm my Inbox. I wonder if that's when the deal was finalised too...Quote:

as much as I love the Hoff this is definitely a better option up front, and he'll be back just in time for the derby :wub:
Can he play today? :D
He scored 11 goals in 19 games last year, On that evidence he was wanted for this year.Quote:

Twitter/Facebook logic......
I'm looking forward to hearing it from the old bloke behind me at the games. I'd love $1 for the amount of times I heard "how many chances can one bloke screw up?". For some reason he hasn't been doing it for Hoffman.Quote:

So we are coming stone motherless last we don't have a coach for some reason yet we are signing players??
WTF is going on??
Roy was deemed surplus last season now we go running back to him like some beta male simp ex lover does when he can't find anything new and we sign him for next year too so our new coach is stuck with him as well
We also sign some bloke Roar deemed that shit they got rid of him to bring in the head huntef Corey Brown in who was an epic failure at Victree
Even for us this is some next level inconpetence
Never let facts get in the way, hey?Quote:
