Think it’s just confirmation bias that we always get screwed over.Quote:

So Nabbout screws us over first after we give him an opportunity when no one else does.
Champness then screws us over deciding to leave the club where he gets an opportunity for his shit rapping career that was never going to happen. He now does us over again by signing for Brisbane after the jets kept money for him when he came back instead of using it on another player instead.
Carl is then given an opportunity after being out of a job for a little while, stays for about 5 minutes and is now looking to get in bed with a rival club.
Maybe it’s the type of people that the jets are signing that is the issue. I understand there are egos in football but these guys are just plain scum with no sense of loyalty. I don’t care how we go next season, what would be nice is if we could build a football club of good people to start with, then go from there.
Really feeling those familiar doom and gloom off-season vibes. Feel its only gonna get worse
You might want to check and see if Robinson was receiving each and every dime he was entitled to under his employment contract. If the club was somehow shafting him then I'd be out the door too.
Maybe ask old word salad ceo and see what tripe he comes back with.
Richard Money over Zoom would be a top class coach. Sign him up Tinks.
If anyone expects it to get better, they aren't really a Jets fan.Quote:

No other comments...
(Facey statement from the club. It's literally two lines)

Club is finishedQuote:

Robbo has taken a look around the club, realised where it's headed and is hoping to jump ship as soon as an offer comes in. Jowic did the same. Nabbout did it as well. There hasn't been too many players wanting to come back here for a 2nd stint besides a very much out of favour Roy. That tells you a lot IMO.
Not Lawries fault if there's no money. When Lee came in and money was available, we "virtuallly" won the league. Quality was there.
Then ML started to pull out... very simple. It's just sad to witness, but a solid fan base is obviously not enough to make a club viable: it's probably just enough to guarantee survival and wooden spoons (or 7th places).

WOW - The club is just rolling over yet again.
No ambition whatsoever. All the positive progress at the end of last season is gone.
I just logged into my member portal and there was no way to cancel my auto membership renewal. I just deleted my CC details instead.
I really fear we've used all our 9 lives this time.
Like others on here and social media, I'm getting a sense that this could end badly.
Were we to need bailing out again, I don't see it happening. I would expect the licence to go to Canberra instead.
jets are back baby!
im here to finish the job mother****ers!!!!!!Quote:

That escalated quickly.
I suspect the media have known about this for a while and it might all be about to come to a head.Quote:

Just defies absolute logic that a club with such loyal support and always in the top half of the league for paid up membership to be the basket case it always is.
The League is on its death bed as it is, Screw the club screw the league. Game just was not strong enough to survive firstly Gallop and now Covid.
So how long until Lawrie starts talks with Charlesworth about his inevitable merger masterplan? That was his plan all along in my head, so I'm not surprised it's going this way.
I'm fairly confident that none of us will want anything to do with them once it happens (hopefully the Facebook douches all stick around and waste their hard earned tho, A league needs chumps to keep it afloat), so I just want to put it out there now that we should just rename this place "WellingtonFootball.net" and start doing the shirtless Poznan at whatever time they do that thing that the NZ commentators seem to love so much.
Thoughts? Counter offers for other teams to jump ship to? WSW does have a gold strip and hates Sydney FC, but I don't think I can go to games where you get mugged by security on your way in each game.
Been going through this crap since 1977 - dunno if I can go any further.
I doubt there will be a league in 12 months let alone a Jets.
So our players can go from Newcastle Whodontexist to Canbera Whodontexistyet?Quote:

Now, back to the shit-show unfolding in front of us. I wonder how many players who signed up for Robbo are talking to their agents right now about one of them loans to WSW next season?
Isnt it all the one agent anyway?Quote:

Imagine being such a shitkhunt that Canadians get angry at you.
He, his agent and any associated players can go. Mt Druitt is lovely this time of year Carl hope you enjoy it.
His Gyponess is going to be on Fox at 515.
Unless hes going to announce his resignation why bother.Quote:

The quicker we get Stu and Dapuzzo back in running the joint the better.
Easily win NewFM within our first 3 seasons with those blokes in charge.
I miss Con.
Just watched the replay on fox.
Wanderers asked, we said yes.
Wanderers and him are chatting.
He’s contracted, but we had agreements he could talk to other clubs.
Wanderers are a big club. Ffs.
Active buyer with FFA processes atm.
Carl leaves cause of uncertainty probably.
Any animosity towards Wanderers? No. No distrust. All been up front. Inquiry was made. He told Carl they were keen.
Contingency plan is to get a new owner.
Up to new owner what they do with coaching and recruitment.
Carl’s been a top coach. We have done right thing by him. Carl has aspirations to be a top coach, that’s why he’s leaving.
Can you give Jets fans hope?
I know there’s been some stories, way off mark, reasonable squad, Jets will be kicking off in new a league season.
I wonder if we are trying to run club into the ground so FFA have no choice but to take Lee’s license instead of allowing him to sell it.
thanks Brem. We are clearly in a terrible position yet Lee is still asking for too much cash. he needs to accept he ain't getting what he paid for it.Quote:

He's also not gonna be sad if we do fold, especially if it's the reason his beloved Coasties Sauce Bottles stay afloat for another year or two.
Martin Lee probably can't afford to sack him either, so we could be absolutely screwed here.
Also, yeah I'm not sure how the Member could make this place any worse than it is now. The sky has already begun falling, why not go out laughing at his antics at the same time, lol.
everyone should go online and remove credit card details from their memberships
