Would be an awesome signing. We're more likely to go for that huge striker (forget his name) that used to/still does?? play for wycombe wanderers as our marquee. Get the egg ball fans coming to games.

One of the questions on the Jets Members survey was "what do you expect from the club"
What are people's expectations on performance next year?
- A-League (Grand final winners/premiers/Semis/Top 6/better than 10th)
FFA Cup (Winners/Semis/Quarter finals/Round 16/Round 32)
For me, I expect us to make Quarter Finals of FFA cup and Reach the Top 6 next year.
That's what I put too, I expect significant improvement, not unimaginable improvementQuote:

If they can achieve that then and ONLY then the hurt is worth while.
If they can't then the hurt has been needlessly inflicted by ****S as we would have been rebuilding anyway and could have done so without their slash and burn philosophy alienating people because of their ****ing EGOS
I honestly think we will struggle again next year but i will accept it if they once and for all sort out all the bullshit within the club.
-Tinks either goes away or starts running us like a decent HAL club. (pay on time, proper coaching and training, improved youth facilities/pathways)
-Stubbins gets his squad how he wants and builds a team that goes out every week and busts their asses off trying to win the game. I think finals football should be a minimum requirement to keep his job.
-No more massive turn over of players. Maybe 5-8 movements at the end of the season and 1-2 players brought in mid season if we have injuries.
Give me that next year and i'll probably still find something to whinge about... if i'm being honest.
Im with u on that one... Quarters and Top 6Quote:

So then when we do get dusted in the first round he'll come out and say "we have achieved our goal before we had planned. Sure signs we are moving forward".
I'm with Member, win or get the **** out.
It's a salary capped league. If our aim isn't to win every year, the people in charge can **** off.
I'm ok with Stubbins getting knocked out.....
That question was worded horribly.
Many were IMO.
What do I expect?
I expect us to finish last again
What do I expect my club to aim for.
To win the ****ing thing everything year. Salary cap etc etc
lol, yes we have jumped it.Quote:

Once they get all the results in and tabulate all the data, just hope they are shitting bricks about the prospect of having less than 5,000 members. The thing is will it worry Tinkler, with him you just don't know whether that would concern him or whether that is what he actually wants!
Gave them a serve over man management, the price of beer (important!) my hatred of our initiation Knights strip (bring back the GOLD), the lies and the inept coaching.
Also said FFA 1/4 finals and top 6 finish
Tinks should sign van der vaart 👍
Tabulating the data???Quote:

It's a survey, just a token members "feedback" gesture - you would be lucky to get a 10% response rate and much of the feedback, especially overly negative will be ignored.
You could put "I would like to buy Messi for the Jets with my own money" and there would be no response.
I've dealt with the membership team as part of the sub-committee and I don't get the impression they would ignore constructive feedback or negative feedback. They aren't oblivious to the what's gone on. The question is whether they are able to make changes and influence based on this feedback higher up the Jets organisational structure.Quote:

if you want to make a point they'll notice, then call up and cancel your auto-renew payment option.
loyalty has no place in it. your dollars don't support the players. the club loses money hand over fist with wvery game they host. you're "contributions" of what, $10-20 per game, mean nothing.
anything less than cancelling and you're an enabler of the shit they're dishing up. newy needs less sheep.

Just had a bit of look at players coming off contract on Transfermarkt, and by that i mean i was at my desk "working" very hard if my boss asks...
Luciano Becchio is off contract from the Championship. I know he is 31 but i think someone coming from the Championship, if competitive, would be a step above most players in our league.
Where would you guys class the HAL level on the scale of English leagues, or some of the lower leagues around Europe?
Zac Anderson has just been cut by the Mariners. Hopefully we pick him up. Syd Fc after him as well.
Cernak released also. Hope we dont sign him
Second Division.Quote:

Put those blokes on a week to week preparation and they would kick the shit out of HAL sides.
Don't forget we have Mass Luongo playing League 1 and Bailey Wright Playing League 1 also.
Yep we really are struggling when people are HOPING we pick up Gypo RejectsQuote:

e.g. last season we had 10,003 members
crowds went from 11,884 in the first game against Victory to 4,162 in the second to last game against Perth
that means 5,841 with tickets didn't bother to turn up
if, as seems likely from talk about the town and straw polls on this website, we get fewer than 5,000 season ticket holders next season - we may well get a crowd for the next game of –841
I'm sure you can use your fancy statistical analysis to firm up these numbers but you can't ignore these trends
lol boz :rof:
statistics :yap:
:gent: please. Nothing fancy in what I doQuote:

Jeterpool and anyone else who would like to write regular articles feel free to contact me so I can sort you access.
Apparently front runners with Perth to sign Bulut. Personal opinion.. Would take.
