    Though if Pepper was just played in his correct position, that would alleviate some of the drama.
    I would too but even though we are shit surely our aim cant be "lets get back to average"

    Average in a 10 team comp is halfway between 5th and 6th. Average is our clubs goal and appears to be the long term goal. If we re-sign Joel and finish 6th, job(e) done. If we don't and finish 7th, you can quote this at the end of the season and complain, wishing we were average enough to play finals football.

    We are staring down the barrel of the spoon. Finishing 7th would be an achievement. Finishing i the top 6 would be an over achievement.

    Lets face it very little has gone on recently at the club to give us hope better days are coming soon.

    We sold off two of our better players to Euro clubs, we released a couple of under contract younger players who may have made a great stride forward this year to rival clubs when we didn't have to, we also for some reason released our captain who worked his arse off for the cause and a few other squaddies.

    We have replaced them with a bloke unwanted by the pissants, another couple of injury affected players one who still hasn't played for us and the other a huge gamble, an Ecuadorian bloke who don't speak English yet could be great or shite but is hard to tell as he isn't fit yet cause it took so long to get a Visa, a competent player in madeschi, someone to take the focus of Gallaways shitness and some bloke who has a pornstar like name yet has spent most of his career playing semi pro football in the US of A


    Add in Tinks wanting out


    Not exactly convincing that the corner is being turned

    Tinks was never gonna stay. He did well to throw some decent $ at a sport he doesnt like. It was the appointment of gve that ensured yrs of mediocrity. think back 4 yrs, we are there.

    I consider myself extremely optimistic but losing out on paartalu may have finally broken me. If the ownership isn't sorted before the start of the season, celeski is out for an extended period and we don't sign another mid, my family and I may find it hard to turn up for the start of the season.... Oh wait we are away for the first 6 or so weeks.

    Yep and whoever came up with the idea of bringing that stupid f^&k**ng overated coach back should never ever be allowed anywhere near the club again.

    You did not need to be smart to know re employing that pubic haired muppet was always going to be fraught with danger.

    Jobe should be signed. Newcastle boy, 3-5 years still to offer. He deserves to end his A league career on his terms as opposed to what happened before with GVE.
