with keystone cops defending why should Carney bother.
And all this talk of positional change is a larf. If you move a sloth in for a goose, then a donkey over for a slug you wont change sh*t. Not that our whole squad is bad but if we can get a few more top notch players (sif) then we could start being bothered to talk positions imo.
I asked the great (Long time Feyenoord's fan) Timmy V on FB what did he think of us signing Leo?... His answer regarding Leo's time at Feyenoord was: Yeah bit of a flop tbh....... Timmy knew........

What is wrong with Enver?.....he has been terrible!!!!.....Not to mention the other Serbian!!!
The Macedonian has done ok, but thank god a Croatian is in the mix to help out..........but we really miss the "Albanian"....! untitled.png
I think we should sign a couple of Bosnians in January

If I was Carney I would take the $$$ and **** off to Qatar... And if I was Leaky I'll do the the same, can't refuse Ulsan...

Carney and Leo are potentially dangerous with the ball, but are diabolical without it. The Jets cannot afford to have both players on the park at the same time- there is too much space in the middle of the park. The lack of energy without the ball by the entire team yesterday was really disappointing.
Sounds like you would also like the Jets out of top grade as well.
Anyone here who wants to retain a decent player..........nope. then fold the cvnts.
Good to see hoole is choking on Arnys sav getting stuff all game time and going nowhere. remember all those judas well wishers
signed mfks

Sorry but FFA are not showing that they want us to stay in top grade ...!!!... We've been sold a dream (again and again) Show your players you building something solid for the future and get players interested in the project.... Quite the contrary at the moment.... #SurvivalMode

lol we're terrible.
Let's face it, the team is awful and the coach most likely very average.
Our only hope of a turn around here is for a new owner to come in and inject some cash because at the moment it's like we're in PE and we're the last to pick from all the mentally handicapped leftovers and dungeons and dragons types.
tbh even old Tinks was giving us more hope. At least his whole "Let's sack all our good and experienced players and play the young locals" was a plan, albeit a godawful one. I mean you could almost believe that maybe, just maybe Stubbins was not a total gumby, and that the kids would pay dividends eventually.
At the moment we don't have a plan, we're completely ****ed and no one seems to give a shit.
Remember when the double eff aye made a team out of everyone's rejects and and a Japanese pensioner and you all laughed at how povo they were but they had a good coach who made them go pretty good.
Yeah, it's not the double eff ayes fault.
It's more the fact we've stagnated with the ownership.
I think the FFA put all their eggs in the Thompson consortium basket, despite what they are saying in the media about other parties, and now we have gone to a bank to sell us.
The FFA aren't going to set a direction or make any major decisions because it may conflict with the direction a new owner wants to take and the flexibility to bring in their own marquees should they wish. That's why the club will get through on bare minimum squad, minimum numbers in the backroom and administration all to keep things ticking over until the new owner comes in.
Look at Victory, Sydney, City, Adelaide...they all want to be competitive as an organisation. The FFA ownership screams "We are just going through the motions for the season". The coaching staff, the administration and the players may want to try achieve more or set things improvements but with limited budget from the owners, granted more than it was under the other owner, they are running off an oily rag.
We simply won't compete until our ownership is sorted.

the club is doing all the right things off the field/non squad related imo to keep 10k rocking up, it will never improve unless the results on the field pickup.
re Leo. he is by far the best player in our team, only problem is he is no where fit enough and I think miller allured to it doesn't cope with the hard Aussie pitches.
at the end off the day it is going to take 2-3 years until we are going to be competitive, we might even have to change coach 3-4 times lol.
this Friday the following needs to happen imo
- cowburn needs to start in the middle of the park
- leaky g needs to start in the front 4 and be allowed to run riot like he did when he first signed for us
i reckon on the minimum we will atleast be a little more offensive and leaky g is the best crosser off the ball in the team so he should be able to find triffs head if he stays onside
Who starts at LB if cowburn is in mids? I agree LeakyG needs to push forward but needs to be at the expense of Enver with Cowburn to start at LB as we dont have another option. Kanta pushes to mids at the expense of Watto and Boogs returns.
Still though.. Our depth sucks!
Today has given me some perspective.
How would you feel being a Jets and Chelsea fan right now...I'd suggest about as low as Chelsea's position on the table.
The Championship Chronicles - The Jetstream's review of the 2007/08 season. www.newcastlefootball.net/chronicles
Totally predictable though I thought.
Leicesters superior squad compared to Chelsea is the reason they are winning.
Chelsea losing all those good players at the end of last year and replacing them with players clearly not of EPL standard is plain for all to see.
Leicester spent up on massive name recruits and it's paying off.
You have just said that in your opinion Lundy hasn't looked up to it from what you have seen and that is why you base your criticism on him you then acknowledge he carves it up in the yoof and has potential and we should be sticking with him.
???
Maybe if you see his potential his age all that stuff maybe any criticism you are directing at him for not carving it up when getting minimal opportunity is ridiculously over the top and you would be best served by showing some patience understanding etc on a kid trying to make it at a shit club like ours and staying quiet on him until he has had a decent opportunity to press his claims
As for Leo enlighten me again on all these great assists he puts on and goals he scores???
Bloke has barely had a shot all season and I can't for the life of me recall many chances he has created.
Good eye for a pass?? FFS He is lucky to pick a teammate out 1 in every ****ing 5 passes. If he could find Milos occasionally we might get something happening in the front 3rd
Yeah he occasional beats a man but then what happens???............................
Yep nothing. No end product at all. No point beating 3 blokes on the wing to hoof the cross into row z is there???
Bloke is like a showbag. All glittery and shiny but ultimately full of useless crap
I feel our only attacking threat comes from crosses
should've kept edsen if that's our only option, he was at least 100 times better at holding up the ball
