    Call me an oversensitive sod but I cop a lot of shit on here, quite unjustly. I have demonstrated my 53% commitment to this club over and over again.

    Can you help arrange a mediated session? I want to ask him why my forum reputation is red. He seems to have some sort of vendetta against plastic fans like me.

    Calm down and relax

    How many times did they threaten to take Tinklers licence off him before they acted.

    Bakries still have months of screwing Roar fans over before any FFA action

    they'll act quicker because "3 time champions" with a larger fan group has more impact than "wooden spoon team" with pressure coming from only the local media

    I think what this will do is speed up the process of off loading the jets. The FFA may not be as keen anymore to look at various options/models and wait for what they would ideally want and may be forced to just run with the best option available now so they can pick up the roar.

    so what happens to the roars marquee wages? If FFA wouldnt spend anything outside the cap for the Jets, why should any other club receive special treatment..

    We're from Newy.

    Remember we get screwed over for everything from higher up.


    Situation normal.

    Anyone who comes in to take over or take control is required to honour all existing contracts - its in the CBA

    All the guys in our squad who weren't fired before tinkler lost the liscence we all offered like for like contracts and given a "reasonable timeframe" to accept the offer while looking elsewhere - Neville left. Carney et al. stayed.

    If the Roar have a marquee on their books, the FFA would be obliged to pay the marquee wages. Just like they would have had to do if we had one.


    theyre not getting special treatment

    Saw an article on facey today saying bratten wants out over unpaid wages. People have their opinions but I think you'd be silly to not make a play for this bloke

    Have just read that Bratten is officially a free agent. Source - facebook.

    Has to be true.

    EDIT: foxsports have it on their site aswell.

    That's usually what happens in life when you are not the "master of your own destiny".
    As they say if "you can't be the boss of your own life, someone else will be it for you".
    Pretty well sums up the last few decades of the various Newcastle football teams in the NSL/A-League.

    Assuming we've not used any of the potential outside the cap wages we surely wouldn't have enough room to fit him in. Basically, when Thompson takes over, use the loyalty cap thing on either one of the BK's, and regardless of if he's earned the right quality wise to warrant this, make Carney Aus marquee if we don't plan on going for anyone to fit the bill.
    Right now are weak point is in midfield and Brattan would definitely help us out in that area
