100%! When have the papers ever got it wrong??
The Championship Chronicles - The Jetstream's review of the 2007/08 season. www.newcastlefootball.net/chronicles
so where are the new players?
Miller is back in ENG sorting his move to Newy.
Would imagine once he is in town the signings will start to happen.
thanks posty, stay safe on the ct110
not buying the 'in England' excuse - it is possible to organise getting Joel Griffiths autograph on a contract while overseas
all you need is a piece of paper and a pen
scott miller must go
I Thought i saw something on twitter, regarding a signing to be announced by end of this week. i guess that was the announcement of Beechwood and not a new player.
any info on whether we have started talking to some potential players now that JP is on board i would have thought he would be leading most of this in Miller's absence and due to his knowledge of the league?
Beech Wood is blonde headed bloke. constructs a good midfield
Isn't that what our illustrious Football Manager, Mr Pascoe is there for?
Thought his role entailed helping recruit players and contracts etc.
His role is officially in a "Acting" capacity, lets just hope it stays that way until Miller brings in someone who is truly professional and knowledgeable and who is looking after the club's best interests.....not about pushing his own agenda.
Before Miller went back to england to pack up. He and JP sat down for a day and went through a heap of names for potential recruits/scouting. If they decided there was someone they liked then it would get handed over to Pascoe to do the wheeling and dealing...
In regards to a potential signing by the end of the week, i heard we're signing atleast 1 of the players we let go. Whether that happens this week or happens at all i dont know. But chances are it would've been the Beechwood deal
Don't get me wrong I think that Thompson's expertise coming from a football background is just what this club needs, BUT I would be wary giving him the majority stakehold in the club if it is a consortium of owners. Will his priority be this club, OUR club or does he see owning the Newcastle Jets as an opportunity with the ultimate goal of benefitting his Dundee United???
All I say is FFA, take your time and do your due diligence, you can't afford to mess this one up not only for the good of the game in this region but probably for the whole credibility of the A League too.
Lets not jump into bed with the next available
FFA have said they are talking to 6-7 parties and Thompson has said he wants a consortium, the community part has reared its head too. He has also said many times that this has nothing to do with Dundee United so the continued murmurs of colour changes et al befuddle me. He is in it as a private investor.
I am confident that the FFA are doing everything to get this right. An NDA doesn't mean a done deal - I've had two cross my desk this week. Doesnt guarantee a business agreement though.
Internet has told me we're linked with Bobby Zamora and Leo Bertos.
OK
please switch off your modem. wait 10 seconds then turn it back on.
Zamora would walk this league
Obviously don't want bertos at this age or even 5 years ago for that matter.
If a marquee like Zamora is signed, we would have to imagine that behind the scenes the FFA are pretty well advanced with new ownership and confident those possible parties happy at forking out for a marquee.
I would join the squadron just to sing some of the bobby Zamora songs
