CRAIG Deans’ last experience at the Newcastle Jets almost destroyed his love of coaching.
More than a year later his passion for football has been rejuvenated and on Friday Deans was unveiled as the new Jets W-League coach.
The 41-year-old former Jets A-League assistant coach replaces Peter McGuinness, who now manages the Jets youth team.
Former Adamstown Rosebud player-coach Ashley Wilson will be Deans’ assistant and ex-Broadmeadow Magic gloveman Chris Bowling will work with the goalkeepers.
He almost destroyed the Jets, no wonderQuote:

‘‘Bargains don’t make sense to me,’’ he said.
‘‘If we’re going to be challenging for the title in two years’ time, and that’s our ambition, we want to build a sustainable club.
‘‘It’s not about bargains, it’s about the right quality that want to be here and are committed to Newcastle Jets.’’

Newcastle Jets utility David Carney says he’s excited about the forthcoming Hyundai A-League season and the future of the club.
The former Socceroo said that like everyone at the Jets he’s optimistic about the fresh start for Newcastle with new coach Scott Miller coming onboard.
Carney confirmed that right now there is a really good vibe among the squad and staff.
“It’s only been a couple of weeks since we’ve started getting back into it but training has been really good,” Carney said.
“Assistant coach Jean-Paul de Marigny has been here for a little while now and since Scott has come in it’s been a great partnership.
“All the boys have been saying that while last year may not have been the greatest what we’re working on right now is really positive in terms of tempo and intensity from everyone involved.
“Every session all the boys are giving 100 per cent and you really couldn’t can’t ask from much more.”
As a former English Premier League player Carney knows how tough training can be on young squad members and the ex-Sheffield United midfielder says he’s looking to use his experience to make sure the more inexperienced squad members are getting the most benefit on the training paddock.
“We’ve got a fair few young players in the squad at the moment and I’d like to help them grow as footballers,” he said.
“Not just in a technical sense but also how they mentally prepare for games and the mental toughness that they need to have on the pitch to help go to the next level.
“One of the things you have to learn as young player is not to go into your shell if you make a mistake or have a bad a game and if I can help with that it will make them better players.”
With the club’s Westfield FFA Cup Round of 32 encounter against Perth Glory looming, Carney said that he believes the Jets can book themselves a spot in the final 16.
“There is fair off-season in the A-League so the FFA Cup really keeps you going and gives you something to look forward to,” he said.
“The boys have been really working hard to prepare for the match though having a small squad and a lot of young players makes it a bit tougher for Scott and JP.
“But we’ve still got some senior players here with Nigel Boogaard and Daniel Mullen.
“Lee Ki-je is one of the best left sided players in the league and we’re really lucky to have him here.
“There is still a lot of quality in the team so hopefully we can put on a good show and get into the next round.
“We’ve still got a few more players we need to add to the squad yet but with the way training has been going and with Scott and JP here we should be able to bring in some more quality players and have a good year.”
Why would you be livid?
Would be nice if someone like Thompson wants to be put money into the club but ultimately his primary motive is to do it so as to benefit HIS club Dundee United, if people think he wants to pump money into an Aussie club out of the goodness of his heart then they need to give themselves a reality check.
According to the Twitter, a new commercial and community partner will be accounced 9.30 tomorrow morning.

Newcastle Jets are delighted to announce that the club has joined forces with prominent customer owned banking organisation the Greater Building Society for a major community partnership.
In a landmark agreement for both parties, The Greater has committed to be the major sponsor of the Jets’ new community engagement strategy and platform – to be known as ‘JETS: CONNECT’ – for the next two years.
JETS: CONNECT, fuelled by The Greater, will ensure that the club’s players, coaches, staff, and brand are highly visible in a variety of communities in and around Newcastle the Hunter and Northern New South Wales.
The JETS: CONNECT program will feature a pre-season tour, primary school visits, junior football clinics, and charitable components, sharpening the club’s focus and commitment in the community space.
This follows recent feedback from extensive engagement with Jets members and fans.
JETS: CONNECT will officially commence this month when the club’s senior squad and staff departs Newcastle on a six-day pre-season tour of Northern New South Wales.
From Monday 27 July to Saturday 1 August the Jets will visit several towns within the club’s northern catchment, including Taree, Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour, Armidale and Tamworth.
At today’s JETS: CONNECT media launch at Hunter Stadium, Newcastle Jets Chief Executive Officer Mr Mitchell Murphy praised the Greater for believing in and backing the club’s community plan.
“The Greater is a highly recognised and respected organisation within Newcastle, the Hunter Valley and wider New South Wales,” Murphy said. “As a club we’re thrilled that The Greater have opted to share in our mission to positively influence people and their community’s through football.”
“Our members and supporters have certainly expressed their desire to see us be more active and visible in the community, and we’re confident that with The Greater’s support we will meet their wishes through our JETS: CONNECT platform.”
The Greater’s Acting CEO Greg Taylor says the JETS: CONNECT partnership aligns closely with The Greater’s core values.
“We are one of the largest banking organisations in Australia with a proud history of giving back to our community, not shareholders,” Mr Taylor said.
“The Greater shares the Jets’ values of being united with the community and acting with integrity in our dealings.
“Football is the number one participation sport in our region and we hope that our contribution will see the communities number one team connect even more closely with families, schools, local football clubs and charities.
“As a leading business in the Hunter we are privileged to do our part in making the Jets more accessible to the community, inspiring young boys and girls to be active,” he said.

Jesse Vanstrattan joins Jets support staff

NEWCASTLE Jets have filled the final place on the club’s support staff with Jesse Vanstrattan returning as goal keeping coach.
Vanstrattan has agreed to terms on a one-year deal and attended his first session on Monday.
The 32-year-old was initially lured to the club midway through last season by then coach Phil Stubbins in a dual role of back-up keeper and mentor.
His recruitment came after the sudden sacking of goal keeping coach Neil Young and other support staff Clayton Zane and Andrew Packer.
The Jets had been without a specialist keeping coach for the opening month of the pre-season.
Before turning to coaching, Vanstrattan spent 10 years playing in Italy, including stints at Verona and Juventus.
The Jets are his third A-League club following playing roles at the now defunct Gold Coast United and Central Coast Mariners.
Based on the Central Coast, he has retired from playing and will focus solely on mentoring Jets keepers Ben Kennedy and Mark Birighitti.
Apart from Vanstrattan, the Jets welcomed triallists Aryn William, Max Burgess and Patrick Antelmi to training on Monday.
Is Aryn the younger brother of Rhys?
As far as i remember they are twins? Good to see they got burgess back on trial and happy to see antelmi and williams in there too. Would rather these 3 than danning and ramsay
Williams is apparently a RB, twin with Ryan Williams, younger brothers of Rhys.
Miller not impressed by Cowbie?
I'd be happy with Antelmi, hell i'd be happy if all 3 sign. Burgess seemed pretty enthusiastic when he came in and is still young enough to improve under some decent Tutelage.
Hopefully a couple of these types of signings leads to enough cap space for 2 or so good quality players.
I wonder if the FFA is considering not filling the 23 man squad completely, allowing them spend more on players who will be able to start straight away.
While having 20ish players isn't ideal depth wise, they would just have to rely more on the Youth guys like Lundy
Another positive by not filling the squad is that when the new owners hopefully come in there are some roster spots open for Marquees.
