Pointless. Jets have never been able to cross a ball and probably never will. Crouch will get stuff all service. Will be like Kennedy at MC.

I call bullshit. He's not a yesman as far as I know.
Abbey Clancy in Newcastle !!!!.... Make room Tara, Lucy, Mel..You go now you go..... :lulzturtle:
He's certainly a big marquee. But it'd still be a tall order to get him here

It certainly would be a stretch to sign him to a reasonable deal, hopefully Tinkler goes to great lengths to get it done.Quote:

That joke is so shit that I am going to leave it here as a reminder that I can be a shit poster at times. Everyone needs a reality check every now and then.
Crouch seems perfect for us!
I just did the old google news search, first article something along the lines of "Australian Newcastle Jets Keen to lure crouch."
Second article "Crouch set for surgery" he certainly fits the bill!
Perfect.....:roflz:Quote:

Discuss.
I agree but he would need a lot of convincing to come back here
he will only be convinced by the $$$$
the ball is thoroughly back in his court, whereas it was in the phoenix's court at the start of the year.
He has gotta decide does he want to be the big fish in the small pond, or try his luck overseas again.
Apparently some site is reporting we're lining up an offer for Bernie Ibini in the offseason. He is quick, but one player I find extremely overrated tbh.
Also apparently James Holland has confirmed he is leaving Austria Wien at the end of the season. No idea his plans, other than he will leave.
Bring Jimmy home!!Quote:

I also think Ibini is vastly overrated. But Holland and Burns would be most welcome
Disagree, think he tears it up in the A-leagueQuote:

Signing Jimmy would go long way to winning back some supporters IMO. If Tinks was to get it done I would be slightly less inclined to call him a prick when I see him.
If you're reading this big man there's a Aussie born Uruguayan knocking around in the Uruguayan leagues that goes by the name of Richard Porta, go get him to, he shouldn't cost you much either.
For a sensible club that would make a lot of sense.Quote:

didnt he go to the middle east to earn some petrodollars?Quote:

Hasn't scored consistently at a top tier club since 2012. Saying that he'd probably be a great addition for us
Sorry for not understanding how our marquee system works, but are you allowed 2 australian marquees or does one have to be international and the other australian?
One is the Australian Marquee - used only for Australian players.Quote:

Porta doesn't speak English iirc.Quote:

So with Mullen signed on for another 2 years, will we see a back 5 of
Cowburn
Boogaard
Regan
Mullen
Lee
Lee and Cowbie have shown enough that they can play a WB role.
According to soccer stoppage time we trying to sign a dm from another a-league club. Doubt it will be anything too exciting
Zad?.. Lol
We havent signed Cowburn yet.Quote:

I believe Regan hasn't re-signed yet either, but can only assume they are 99% coming back, both locals, Regan accepting the Captaincy and Cowbie playing regularly.Quote:

In the wake of the Crouch rumours I feel it appropriate to air my opinions and hear out the thoughts of others on who the jets really should bring in.
Im not overly excited about the Crouch move but we could do worse! though i'm confident its about as likely a move as the jets being purchased by Roman Abramovich.
The jets should focus on bringing in genuinely talented decently aged players like Marinković or Janko but i do see value in some experience. This would be my hit list if i was the big rich marn who likes horses and beers with tha lads:
(not in order)
-Mark Bresciano 35 (Currently Al-Gharafa)
-Yasuhito Endō 35 (currently Gamba)
- Kim Kallstrom 32 (FC Spartak Moscow)
- Luca Toni 37 (Hellas Verona)
Obviously we need to focus on younger players for the future but in these players you could build an era from their ageing shoulders.
Other fun ideas:
-Freddy Adu 26 (Kuopion Palloseura)
-Philippe Mexes
-Rod Fanni 33 (OM)
-Tomáš Ujfaluši (37)
-Milan Baroš (33)
-Djibril Cissé (33)
-Anthony Réveillère (35)
-Ricardo Carvalho
-Florent Malouda (34)
-Yossi Benayoun (34)
-Joseph Yobo 34
-Park Chu-young (29)
What do you think tink, sign me up?
Your suggetions?
