It will just be these 3, no more. That will give us 16 for the squad, maybe a youth call up so we don't have two keepers on the bench.
Otherwise if the sackings are found to have no legality, more than 3 would put us over the squad limit, wouldn't it?

Heard bridges wanted to pull the boots back on but stubbins said the fans were hurting enough
Ayo, does anyone think Tinks/Stubbins/Lizard Peeps running the club are using up the required 85% minimum of the salary cap?
AFAIK that bit of paper signed between the players and the league stipulates that clubs have to run with at least 85% of the total.
Sooooo all these nothing signings, are they being signed on big money or what?
I'd say that was what we were using and tinks has given stillborn the go to sack and payout the lost 5 whilst using the remaining 15% plus chilli's injury replacement for the new blood. Also depends what payouts Flores and Steele landed, did they cut and run or push for their full contract payout.
Ive been looking up the mentioned CB david rochela and he looks good. Spanish youth int, played for thai champions. In jan 2014, napoli were interested in him.
Sounds like he has had a distastrous 2014 then.
Serie A prospect >> Jets player
That's quite a fall from grace
Yeah not sure whats doin there. But the link was just as he joined the thai premier league. Still only 24 and apparently was one of the stars in a league winner team
Dont know if that means to much. Wasnt stubbins winning/close to winning when he coached there?
From wiki
In September 2013 Stubbins accepted an offer to join 16th placed Ayutthaya FC of Thailand. The 1st division club ultimately going on to consolidate an 8th place finish in the league after undertaking a nine game unbeaten run under Stubbins guidance.
Stubbins was twice awarded Coach of the Month during this period.
Didn't Erik Paartalu say the standard of coaching in Thailand was very poor and the owners made teams train like a standard full time job
We have signed Mullen from WSW.

Stubbins is a mentor???Newcastle Jets are pleased to announce the capture of experienced defender Daniel Mullen on a four-month contract through to the completion of Hyundai A-League season 10.
Mullen links with the men from Hunter Stadium a day after mutually agreeing to part ways with 2014 AFC Champions League winners, and rival Hyundai A-League club, Western Sydney Wanderers.
Mullen, 25, developed his football in his home state of South Australia before grooming his talent at the Australian Institute of Sport. The imposing defender – who can play in a variety of positions across the backline – linked with Adelaide United in 2008 and went on to make over 50 appearances for the team from Coopers Stadium.
In 2012 Mullen shifted to the Chinese Super League to ply his trade with Dalian Aerbin, and while he remained contracted to the ‘Blue Hawks’ in China’s south until early last year, Mullen spent time back in Australia on loan with Melbourne Victory in 2013.
Mullen spent the most part of last year contracted to Wanderers, and played an important role in their 2014 AFC Champions League success. Indeed, Mullen played the full 90 minutes in the red and black’s first leg Final win over Saudi Arabia’s Al Hilal at a packed Parramatta Stadium.
Mullen then travelled and played with Wanderers at the 2014 FIFA Club World Cup held in Morocco in December.
New Newcastle recruit Mullen said he hopes to show leadership on and off the pitch during his initial tenure with the Jets.
“For me I am looking at this as a great experience,” Mullen said. “I had a good time at Western Sydney Wanderers where I enjoyed a lot of success in winning the ACL [AFC Champions League] with the team. But it’s time to move on and I see Newcastle as a place that I can help the team move forward.”
“I will definitely be looking to show leadership skills during my time with the Jets. I do think I have quite a bit of experience in the [Hyundai] A-League, so I am looking to be a leader on and off the field.”
“First and foremost I want to be a positive influence on the team. I am a fresh face coming in so I am looking forward to bringing in all the positivity that I have shown at my past clubs.”
“If I can play the majority of games and perform consistently for the team I will be happy on a personal level, but it’s important that we give back to the fans that have shown so much support to the Club, too,” Mullen said.
Newcastle Jets mentor Phil Stubbins said he was pleased to reconnect with Mullen who he previously worked with at Adelaide United.
"Daniel is someone I know well from Adelaide, I was involved in giving him his promotion to the first team and he came in and had a really good impact on the team. I know the kid, he comes from a good family, I respect his father Joe as a real football person and I am pleased to be able to bring Daniel to the Jets." he said.
"I am pleased Daniel wants to be part of taking this club forward and this initial contract will allow us to have a good look at him over the coming 12 games."
Mullen trained with his new teammates for the first time this morning and will be in contention for the Newcastle Jets next Hyundai A-League match versus Brisbane Roar on this Friday, 6th February at Hunter Stadium.
Big Phil is a mentor, no one can teach a bloke how to suck as good as uncle Phil. After all with his inherited squad (keep repeating it phil eventually someone will believe you) he's managed to drag the jets backwards at a rate of knots, and make them worse than last year.
I actually like the look of this signing, its only a 4 month deal so that will take him through to just after Phil has had enough and wants to sack him.
can't do any worse than the mugs we had playing CB
True...but I'm still trying to work out what happened to Jaliens, guy was great last season imo-this year steaming turd.
I hope he likes prison food.......and penis
I dont know if this has been brought up before but how can we sign enough decent replacement players and stay under the salary cap. All the players released will still come under the cap as they will have to be paid out.
Bet Tinks doesnt know that.....but FFA do.
Have it on good authority we were running at least 300k under the cap
There is a new registration period for squads during this transfer window.
I assume as long as they are de-registered it will be fine.
