    Is it just me or is it really frigg'n poor form from our so called CEO " got it under control " Shane that information regarding new ownership always seems to be a Herald story behind a subscription.

    Here is a tip Shane, The club has members who have been members since day dot in this area who know the Herald for nothing more than a Thugby League rag and do not subscribe to it who would like to also be kept up to date.

    No wonder the NRL gig was just a flash in the pan for ya !!!!!!!!!!!.

    Can somebody link the article?
    I had a look at a few Jets men’s articles this morning, and couldn’t see any mention of it. (The user interface has really gone downhill).

    Better yet, use “print friendly” and post it up…

    Because they are probably leaks to the Herald- it is not hard to get news tidbits behind the scenes.

    To the best of my knowledge the article contained quotes from Stanton so not sure if they are leaks eh ???.

    Its not the first time Jets employees Shane included have provided information re the club to the Herald that i would think all Jets members would be interested in but have no interest in a subscription to a rag such as that. Anyways Shane must have got his Chrissy's ass about.

    Patience is a virtue - I can wait

    I don't read MSM any more anyway so my first knowledge will be a member email. I will then know it is fact.

    I spoke to Shane at the Women's match on Sunday, knowing he wasn't going to give anything away. He mentioned it's progressing along.

    While I'm not a Shane apologist, he did mention at the last Fan's Council that there's hurdles to get through - including current owners, other owners, APL and FFA.

    If any of these parties throw up hurdles or take longer than expected, that's going to lengthen the process. Many will be returning from leave this week - so who knows if some of these offices have been shutdown the last fortnight too.

    That being said, an update wouldn't go astray - the silence is deafening. Even if that update is "we have parties going through due diligence" then we know where we are along the path.

    Our 3 owners will 100% throw up hurdles. They want a return on their "investment" and will want a high price

    That’s fine, but don’t come out with bullshit comments like before Christmas. Under promise and over deliver, don’t over promise and under deliver

    I know right, how dare they try and run their business like a business.

    why do broke ass people love nothing better than spending other people's money?


    still rue the day we didn't sell to the crypto bros.

    I believe part of their investment (or most of it?) was aimed at keeping the league alive with 12 teams, TV rights etc.

    In that case, they've had their return.

    So yeah... they better get rid of the Jets as fast as they can and cut their losses.

    ... but I didn't say this.

    I said at this stage they should cut their losses.
    I think their self-interest was to keep the league alive, not to make a profit. No one in their sane mind would dream of making a profit from the Jets!
