DEPARTING midfielder Zenon Caravella has implored Football Federation Australia to take over the Jets and help the club fulfil its potential.
Owner Nathan Tinkler is under intense pressure to retain the Jets after wages were not paid for a fifth day.
Club management said on Tuesday that "there was no definitive timeline" on when salaries and other outstanding entitlements would be honoured.
FFA has demanded that Tinkler pay his dues or risk having his licence withdrawn.
"Something needs to happen," a frustrated Caravella told the Herald.
"Whether the FFA comes in or another buyer comes in and puts Tinkler out of his misery. I don't believe he really wants to be here.
"As much as he is paying my wages, in the same breath you want to say, 'Don't be here if you don't want to. You are running the place into the ground. Don't come here and muck about with people's lives and a football club that takes a long time to establish.'
"Everyone is disillusioned, the players, the fans. Everyone.
"The fans can voice their frustration, the players can, too, but ultimately the FFA are the ones with the power.

"The FFA needs to come in and take over."
After 2½ seasons and 49 games for the Jets, Caravella was one of nine players told this month he would not be retained and is preparing to move his family home to Cairns.
Standard A-League contracts end on May 31, at which point all outstanding wages, superannuation and other entitlements are to be settled.
"I have not received superannuation for the past 2½ years," Caravella said.
"Are they going to compensate me for the interest missed? I highly doubt it."
Asked if he was fearful of not receiving his entitlements, Caravella said: "You feel anxious, for sure. You just don't know. Even older players like myself, living from month to month, it's hard.
"If you miss meeting your financial commitments by four days and you are overdrawn . . . the overdraft won't kill me, but it is the principle.
"I turn up to training every day on time and do what's required, be professional. The club has to do the same thing.
"For everyone else who is staying here, it needs to be sorted."
Other players the Herald spoke to expressed similar sentiments.
"I have major financial commitments that have to be met," one senior player said.
"Fortunately I have savings to cover the costs. I feel for the young boys who are living away from home. They are earning a wage, but they have to live for themselves and don't have a choice not to pay rent.
"It's not acceptable for wages to be late four months in a row."
Professional Footballers Australia has a "hardship fund" available to players for emergency situations.
"The PFA has been great," the player said. "They are very supportive of the players in situations like this."
Players have lost faith with club management.
"I'd rather just know if we are getting paid or not," a player told the Herald.
"I'm sick of the lies. I'd rather them be straight up if the money is going to be really delayed or we are not going to get paid. Then we know and can prepare. The decent thing to do is tell the truth."
On the contrary.Quote:

If I had a hat I would take it off to them.
The rest of them have not stood up for themselves or the fans to ensure we as a club are going in the right direction.
Already seen some goose put up on twitter to ....."bring back Baartz, Zane and Bridges"
WTF is wrong with you people!!!
A big fat NO to Baartz and Bridges, both should not come anywhere near the club for various reasons.
Zane for probably the short term but yes maybe further down the track he should be considered for a role.
Which goose???Quote:

I agree with Jetmaster - we should just completely ignore Bridges from now on.Quote:

Don't know where you get "90% of my posts about Bridges" but you are welcome to have a look at my history and find when I last mentioned him!!!Quote:

Tinkler won't be pumping any more money into the Newcastle Jets so the next payment I assume will be when FFA gets things sorted out.Quote:

He might just pull this one out.
Caaaarrrrnnnnn Tinks.
Don't be sorry - He's a dog. I worked that out within about two seconds of hearing the shit he was talking at a youth v hamilton game. Blokes about as genuine as a three dollar bill.Quote:

Yep!Quote:

Firstly Stoppe2 don't ever apologise for expressing your thoughts on anyone. You feel the way you do about Bridges due to certain issues and that is fair enough.Quote:
Originally Posted by stopper2
Secondly PM Jetmaster sometime and fill him in on why you dislike Bridges so much. I wonder if his opinion would change too:rof:

Later Stinkler
Thank fvck
Now to remove Stubbins
I reckon if the FFA hang on the the licence then Stubbins chances of of staying employed have improved dramatically. Dundee you would think would sack him, although would be interesting if Dundee was a destination on his european jaunt, Tinkler would sack hime after 8 rounds. But the FFA will run the club cheaply and Stubbins won't get sacked/Quote:

Yep stand corrected. Posted that before I realised all old contracts are void.Quote:

It is nothing short of what he deserves. *rick had nothing but contempt for all and sundry since the day he arrived here. His offsider can get lost also. His pleading ignorance in the last few weeks over contracts does not cut it either.
If i have this all ass up my apologies
I agreeQuote:

Finally some good news!!!! now for rebuilding and bringing some better days back home in newy
Griff is very happy on twitter
Hi everyone, what'd I miss?

Lets hope the FFA can find a genuine owner/ownership model this time. No more quick fixes.
No words From Dundee United ?,,,,,,, Tinks the Grub was trying to buy time again!!!
Tinkler put the club into administration, then tried to sell it n make a profit. Gallop is clearly smarter than him n took the licence back before the sale!Quote:

Following reports in the media suggesting the Club is in talks with Newcastle Jets, a Dundee United spokesperson said,
“Dundee United is not involved in talks with the Newcastle Jets, this is a personal venture for the Chairman as part of a consortium.
“Any involvement of Mr Thompson in this or any other venture is entirely his prerogative and the board, which he remains fully committed to,
is focussed purely on Dundee United FC delivering a positive end to the season and building for next season.”
So out of pure speculation that dundee do buy us, would we go with the same orange and black or do we go for gold. Whats the thoughts on the direction we should go with the new club?
Yep that's why you know Tinks was full of shit Dundee was never interested in us it's Thompson. Tinks is a lying piece of shit that can't even get his facts straight.Quote:
