Wasting time if targets are over 21.
J Griff is 20
Signing another attacking player over the age of 25 would be real sweet.
I was prepared to give the benefit of the doubt to the club but it's obvious now that Tinkler instructed GVE and Middleby to keep the playing wages to an absolute minimum. Players like Topor, Elrich and Jeffers who were on decent coin have either been released or not re-signed. In there place have been signed young up and coming players on much less money. Even our only import we have signed to date is relatively young and still trying to establish himself in the game. It's nearly September and we have still not signed that striker that GVE has been talking about for months. With recent news of Tinkler's finances being reveiled, everything is now starting to make sense regarding the playing roster at the Jets. There will be no signing of an experienced striker for the Jets for the 2012/13 season.
What are you on about, Joel Griffiths has loads of experience.
clubs cutting back on players wages is hardly a newcastle phenomenom.
and the Euro transfer window is open for a few more weeks.
If you were a decent striker would you sign to come to the A-league before the Euro transfer window shuts?... or wait to see what offers your agent can rustle up?
BTW why does the transfer wondow always seem to SLAM shut? why doesn it ever close gently?
you're probably right though.
maybe one of the Johns brothers will the new signing.
