I feel like he would almost agree with this. He has had a bad run with injuries unfortunately and probably needs to do something else next year.
Am I right in remembering that he has a degree in something already? I think a few of those boys all got degrees whilst training with us in their earlier days.
Being a 10yr player at the club only 50% of his contract deal goes toward the cap, Regardless he is a good player on his day he just doesn't have enough of those days being so injury prone.
Psych is correct.

Kanta out for season surprise surprise.
Noticed recently that mustafa amini and conor Chapman were both free agents currently. Imo better options than we have currently, not that they would probably consider us as an option. Thoughts?
Am i the only one who would like to know what the hell is the go with Donachie, Have i missed something about this bloke going on loan and why he has not come back to his so called " parent " club.
Maybe Mattiske could enlighten us when he comes out of hiding from putting his action plan together to hit his target of 10k membership next season.
Ugar has been suffering from arthritis in the back according to the herald. Could explain his form
Apparently trying to extend naj and prso.
Was a subscriber thing on the herald.
I’m making a bit of an assumption since I don’t subscribe.
Headline was like Jets in discussion with clubs to extend loan deals.
And the first couple of sentences were about Melbourne city and Croatian club. So assumed that was the content of the article.
Also happy with naj. He shows a bit of spark.
Prso id be happy with if he was signing and we could develop him. But atm, I’d rather give young Archie and Thurgate more game time to develop.
Summary was exactly that - working with City (who they see they have a better likelihood of favourable outcome) and Prso's club.
Also mentioned Krasniqi and Abimanyu but not as positive.
Also talked about the number of players off contract.
Today essentially says Boogs and Deans have had a private chat about his future and they will look at it again at the end of the season.
Was Boogs always playing this year? Or was it a bit of a last minute thing with the Donachie stuff.
I can’t remember ever seeing that he signed again, he just kind of turned up.
I wouldn't sign Naj. He's one of those peaked in high school type players.
He's got no ticker, pulls out of challenges, and does nothing defensively.
If he was banging in 10 goals a season maybe - but he's not.
Plus we don't have a dm or cm combo that is capable of covering for him when he clocks off defensively
Connor Chapman would be brilliant if we could get him.
He's a very well balanced player both in defence and attack - as well as being fearless.
Can hit a mean free kick as well when given the opportunity.
This sums hims up nicely. If we are to have a season requiring significant improvement Naj is not the answer. This club clearly lacks a De Villa, Ninkovic style player.
It is the one bleeding obvious of this campaign that we have lacked a genuine creative style player to assist with a few meat pies themselves and supply that service suitable to Roy's game.
I am jot sure what is going to happen at the back next season, Both NTS and Boogs would be taking up significant cap space in dollar terms so does the club look to set them free and have Donarchie return and find him a suitable partner at the back that comes cheaper.
Club have just announced on facey that we have signed Jordan O'Doherty from Wanderers..
Part of the swap deal for Stevie U-G..
Think i might make other plans for Saturday now and the remaining home games, As pointed out above in Buddha's post we were at one point holding out for more yet we seem to have gone backwards on this deal for obvious reasons.
Mattiske , Lederer and the rest of them can get the f$%k out of the club. Clearly there is a conflict of interest and you can bet your last two bob Mattiske was appointed knowing full well where his bread is buttered and to not be obstructional on matters like picking the eyes out of the squad to strengthen the owners real commitment club.
Screwed again we have been.
Good luck Mattiske with your membership target of 10k next season. You will be lucky to get a third of that.
There is what 4 games. Stevie was leaving for free in the end of year. So he’s an asset worth zero to us. With bugger all games less they converted a worthless asset into a decent young player moving forward. I think it was good result.
Just cause we wanted 3 players doesn’t mean we will get it. Stevie ain’t Messi he isn’t worth 3 players in any way.
Huh?
3 players?
Ugaboogaman has signed there for next year, we have what, less than 10 games left and hes been injured/underperforming (for his level) for 6 weeks.
Id say a half decent Odocherty is about as good as anyone could hope for under the circumstances.
You do also realise that we could easily have gotten more players in, you know, the ones we already have on our books that we don't want back here for whatever reason.
Club aint taking on more paychecks in this environment. Deal with what we've got.
I worry if I stop attending games I won't come back
These negotiations have been ongoing for a couple of months now and yet with 4 games to go our pissweak board submit and give him up. Simply rolled over for a half baked injury prone player. Laughable
If you read the full Dillon article and take the content of it as true ( yes i acknowledge we are talking about Dillon ) He states
" Pressure was placed on the Jets to expedite his release during the current transfer window."
Who has the power, presence and influence at both clubs to apply that pressure ?.Lederer perhaps ?.
I get the case put forward that Ug is going anyway but this dead set fly's in the face of the no conflict of interest claim these blokes heap on us like we are some sort of stupid.
Is there really a quartet of other clubs owners ?, Does the fourth mystery funder really exist or is it Lederer's money hence a split of 50% Lederer and the other two 25%.
Probs best to give the club a wide berth til we are in the hands of truly impartial and transparent ownership.
It won't make any difference Stanny the club is never going to be successful again. We will only be here as long as we can be used to test / trial low budget foreigners, develop kids, and take in injured players or underperforming ones so our owner overlords can optimise their teams rosters.
We will get to keep the shit and have anyone with talent / promises taken away from us.
Koutroumbis would be my guess at the next player our "board" mysteriously decides to part ways with.
You can bet your left one both of them will be in red and black by the back end of next season.
Perhaps the club can place a clothing bin at the main entrance in the event Lederer and John T's under performing coach Carl also requires the shirts off our backs. Mattiske can wash em and hand deliver them to his masters down at WSW HQ.
anyone know the identity of the mystery 4th owner? Just our luck it is the owner of the Gypos...
IMO the fourth is a proxy for Lederer using Lederer coin meaning the split controlling the club is effectively 50% Lederer and the the remaining two parties 25% each.
I don't think for one moment the Stevie deal happens if we were controlled with equal interest by ALL other club owners, Not just a select few with an element of anonymity involved.
