    I am completely flabbergasted about what gain there is for the Jets to play a game 5 hours away in Canberra???

    What is the reasoning behind this idea? Can understand the reasoning behind Port Macquarie or Coffs Harbour and even then as Bodynovo suggested it should only be a Pre-season game.....which happens anyway.

    Can only think that the brains at FFA have put this idea to the Jets and Mariners with maybe some financial compensation attached but the ACT government couldn't come up with enough dollars to cover the rest that the Jets/Mariners were willing to sell a home game for!!!

    Am I pissed off.....YES, but am I surprised.....NO!!!

    In the biz they call it 'growing the brand'.

    Chelsea/United/City all playing games over here yet you don't hear fans bleating about that.

    Tinks and the #str8shoota are the only 2 with any vision for the club.

    Mark my words in 10 years the Jets will be playing at Old Trafford and the joint will be packed.

    Could the FFA cull the Mariners and Jets and replace them with Canberra franchise ?

    Afterall, Uncle Frank hates our club and members.

    Newcastle Jets have made a significant off field signing with experienced football administrator Ben Mannion agreeing to join the club as its new General Manager of Football Operations.

    Multiple cases?? Later action??

    Slap on the wrist and an official reprimand ain't getting you anywhere fast.

    If the FFA were serious at getting him out you would give him a sentence with some grunt behind it.

    Escalate the shit so he may do something else stupid

    So you are saying that the FFA they aren't serious about getting rid of him and Tinks is here to stay?

    Serious???

    They have shown no desire to do a ****ing thing to him in spite of any failing he has ever had and there are plenty for breach of licence.

    So the answer would be a big no

    If they're going to do anything, it wouldn't be in the week before the GrandFinal.

    Likewise I'm leaning more towards the FFA doing nothing but after hearing that Middleby and Baartz recently had a meeting with Gallop I still think there is a chance that FFA have a "back-up" plan in the works.
    Don't worry Middleby and Baartz won't be involved in any future plans.

    Some bloke called Nathan Burns won the Johnny Warren medal. So glad the jets didn't keep him.

    Love how this club is all about its members and local community, can't wait to see Murphy's reasoning for taking games out of Newcastle I assume it has been discussed with the members sub-committee you know considering it is directly membership related, or is a reduction and relocation of games off the table for discussion as well.

    **** this club.
    this going the way of gold coast. a retarded rich fat fk making abhorrent decisions for the club.
