Let's see how long this one takes...
The Jets' worst-ever appointment.
1 win in 10. 7 points earned from a possible 30. 2 consecutive losses to the gypos.
At what point do questions start to be asked? I can make next week's line up and our first 3 subs for next week right now.
His tactics are the issue for me. Long balls when we have small team that isn't good in the air. Garbage
We only ended up with him because the smurfs needed to open up a spot for driller. Blokes negative football week after week is wearing real thin not too mention he got schooled by Rudan when we were a man up against the Wanderers.
In recent weeks we have played teams who have had very busy schedules travelled a lot and in the case v the wanderers a numerical advantage for half a game yet we have played slow motion football, We can't even let the ball do the work and run teams around because we can't string two f^&*(ng passes together in a row.
3/4 of the squad wouldn't get a start in AA and Stanton is not a head coaches backside. Another Stubbins, Rado and Tranni etc. They do there best work telling the 4th official who's coming off n on and putting cones out.
Pissed off rant over.
Doesn’t matter. Club won’t sack him until we get new owners.
We’re just in a holding pattern, if you’ll forgive the pun.
I’ll be shocked if Stanton keeps his job once these new owners hopefully come in.
Too often we’re a lot of managers first club in this country, we need to go out and sign someone on with a proven track record as a head coach of a club in a league equivalent or better then this one.
Save all the money we can on players by focusing on high quality youth, unknown but high quality internationals like we had with Penha and splash money on a good coach who can bring it all together
I think everyone can forget about Stanton getting fired, I simply can't see it happening.
Reports are the new owners want to create a similar model to Adelaide and the Central Coast. That is producing young players and selling them. It sounds like Stanton has been involved in the sale process, with both he and the owners discussing the future going forward.
It's a fact that Stanton has an excellent record in youth development, especially in his time at Sydney FC. All the recent players resigned are suggesting his importance on him as their coach. Probably as they are getting game time.
I'm frustrated as everyone else. The Mariners aren't a great team on paper, but they have that fight that the Jets don't have. A couple of solid midfielders that fight for everything and 2 central defenders that are rock solid.
I'm happy to go with a young team, but we need some good solid experienced players in the team.
Stamo looks certain to leave at seasons end. New owners will take the money. But for me he has had 1 good year, I would like to see him back that up next year. He struggled to get any serious game time in Greece before, If he picks the wrong club the same thing could occur.
I would also like to see Natta play a game at Left back and push Lucas forward. Natta finished last year there and went really well. Maybe play Taylor on the right or up with Stamo in the top 2? Time to try something else.
If Stanton is so good at youth development, maybe he should be youth team coach. As for the senior team, I haven't seen any improvement in our young players, if anything they are playing worse now than they were at the start of the season
Other teams have more or less "worked them out". For example, a number of times Taylor ran with the ball down the left flank. Rather than commit, the defence just sat with him until he gave the ball away.
Teams just stack the middle and force us wide. We can't really play up the middle for lack of touch and I can't recall the last time we scored either through a central attack or a shot outside the box. Most of our goals appear to be penalties, crosses and breakaways.
Let's bump this back up the page again
As someone who took the $1.85 on the Wanderers let's leave him in for at least a few more minutes.
Cheers,
plague.
You have my vote
He?s starting to repeat himself at press conferences which is a worry
I have seen enough to call it that we won't be top 6, so any suggestion of that is fluff.
As expected a consolidation season with maybe a couple of kids developing enough to be sold. Then maybe we can get a few more older heads in and move forward.
We will have moments, but the inexperience, defensive lapses and lack of touch in the final third is there for all to see.
Bit concerned, tbh.
There are no obvious replacements currently in Australia.
I know you're joking.
But in case people don't realise that, I just want to say that the Jets' high-performance clinics are excellent. I've been involved personally and I recommend them.
Where can I get a ticket for this bus?
Stanton?s record against the Gypos?
0 wins, 0 draws, 4 losses.
GTFO.
Stanton out.
I'm done with this fraud
They’re gonna give him a couple more games, week off in between each game is a built in excuse. I reckon he’s got till January to pick it up before they cut him loose
This tikataka crap he has them playing really pisses me off, and is boring to watch. I would rather see them beat the first man, then pass the ball. Gypos have been doing it for a few years now and it works
Stanton was pretty positive in the media about the improvement this team will have this season.
We played plenty of trial games and he mentioned a few times how we purposely played away trials to bond the squad together.
So far I think we played better in our games last season, we just made silly errors and gave away late goals to lose games.
If he can't get some results happening by Jan/Feb I think he will be gone.
He might just be out of his depth as first team coach. Tactics and game management don't seem to be one of his strong points.
Have said before i don't doubt his ability to find a diamond in the rough from a NPL but i agree on the coaching side of things. I have had my doubts about him being the right person for the job since the away game against Wanderers last season. He got schooled that day by Rudan and it constantly looks like there is a disconnect between between him and players during a game. Either he is not preparing the players the way he wants things done during the week or players are not buying into what it is he wants from them.
There just seems to be this constant expression of discontent from him during a game toward the players, He never looks calm and in control and IMO fuels that perception of a lack of game management.
Just my thoughts
We won't have to wait that long. Good news soon.Quote:

Stanton is sitting 9th out of 13, earning 0.97 points per match from his 32 in charge.
For comparison, Deans is 0.91 from 34. Miller was 1.11 from 27. Papas was 1.12 from 52. Jones was 0.81 from 27.
