I do find it pertinent that both Archie and Piscopo are, starting, playing well and not breaking down at fully staffed clubs (AFAIK).

No coach in any kind of demand or with any other options is coming here. The most experienced coach we're getting is Zadkovich, or we're gonna get another Papas or Stanton who have never coached at this level and will need to make the most with nothing.
If thats what we do, I'd hope its someone like Zane because at least he's a local, and in my limited knowledge of the Jets Youth he plays a positive attacking style and he has faith in Newcastle Youth.
I don't claim to know much about our youth system these days, but from the snippets I've read the club has been setting Damian up to take over for a short while now. Stanton's coaches, plus the man himself, have spent plenty of time with the youth team over the last few years so surely a few of them are setting themselves up to stay on under the new gaffer to make transition easier.
At least the guy has shown improvement in the youth team consistently, a quick Google search showed me they are 3rd/4th after 5/6 rounds and it's only their 1st season back in League one. I'd much rather see him get a chance over Zads or Zdrillic.

It's hard to compare us to the Nix because of all the travel, and proper isolation when it comes to transfers and attracting players.
Plus, he did well there for a minute, and maybe the emergence of Auckland weakened their home form enough to break the teams spirits a little.
Not saying I'd be super excited to get him, but if we wanted someone more experienced to come in and take the next step rather than building another project, maybe he's worth a shout.
The hype has definitely died down on him. His style of football is a bit turgid too. The best way I can describe it is that his team plays "Why are you hitting yourself?" football.
If it is D Zane, I hope they give him time and start building up the fact we have a local coach in charge of the team.
Jaliens gives me the horn
Isn’t that a rugby page? Surely the only way they’d be getting information on our team is if like Pascoe and whoever he’s brought in have leaked it which seems very stupid if you’re them, not too hard to trace
Yes Mole is a RL man but is close friends with Pascoe & Lee. Leaks were a constant while they were running things at the Tigers

Please Griff let this be true.
Well, at least it's a win-win situation. Either he goes alright and we get to finish 7th or he falls on his face and we all get to enjoy his media mates blame anyone but him for us adding some more wooden ware for the club kitchen.
Hopefully he sticks around with us longer as a coach than he did for us as a player

So it begins.....Ingham on the radio this morning saying he won't sign a new contract until he knows who the coach next year is.
We could fall off the cliff in the coming weeks if this shit starts.
Only one bloke on this foz constantly makes me laugh Plague and it ain't you - MFKS
He shouldnt be getting a new contract no matter what. Isn't good enough
Agree, For a bloke of his limited ability he should be thankful he gets to make a living from Football and not laying bricks through the week and turning out for a pub team on weekends during winter.
Feel like some of you are just purposefully dense sometimes. It's very clear that the original post is not specifically about Ingham signing on for next year, but more the sentiment that him, and likely other players in the club aren't viewing us as a viable option. Ingham isn't the only one off contract at the end of the year, we have Kota, Taylor, M'Mombwa and some other decent squad players off contract who could all be taken from us while we're in this transition, not to mention hopeful players like Bayliss and Adams whose management may put their foot down to have some stability.
For someone dense i'll stick with my assessment of Dane Ingram's ability as a footballer and if he has concerns about who will be coaching the Jets next season he should put those worries to bed and take a professional contract wherever one presents itself here or otherwise.
Who do you think will walk into another teams starting side, they're all benchers Mark
Actually, Mark knows exactly what I was thinking and is obviously a graduate of "Plague's School of Common Sense".
Not being sure of who is here next season coaching wise means lack of certainty. I wasn't alluding to Dingham in particular nor said abilities of particular players.
Players won't enter negotiations with doubt in their, and their agents minds. And that includes any possible incomings for next season. Another off season of shifting deck chairs.
