    We are luc trani's 5th club in the a-league.
    Seems to be well respected by those in the know. Certainly doesnt have the intimidation factor that jp had though

    So he has been at 4 clubs and neither of them have retained him and no one has given him the top job.

    Yet you think he is a good pick up??

    I'm disappointed as my BIL thought it was Rado Vidosic we were picking up... I know Portaloo tweeted a congrats to Luc, but anyone know much about him, can't say he has as high a profile as JP?
    Life isn't the same without Con... but it can only improve without Tinks...

    We could sign pep guadiola and you'd find a problem with it.

    Read my post again and find where i said it was a good pick up. Football people who have had something to do with him have given him a glowing reference.

    Also your point that he has had 4 other clubs reeks of football naivety.but then i should expect that.

    None of his moves over the years have been linked to poor performances or any personal falling out. So, given the shit we have accepted over the years at the Jets I think Luciano Trani is one of our better acquisitions.

    You said he is well respected by those in the know.

    Yet 4 clubs think that highly of him they haven't retained him.

    Obviously they not know what all these other people in football seem to know.

    Do you honestly think a bloke who achieved nothing at 4 better clubs than us and wasn't wanted by them all of a sudden is a great pick up for us??

    Typical HAL

    Recycling of other people's garbage.

    Is this bloke the best assistant Millertime can get.

    I think not.

    Once again FFA throwing us under the ****ing bus

    Why appoint an assistant now. Why can't the new Chinese overlord appoint the replacement for JPD??

    Also I hearing that the FFA are bending over backwards to get Cahill to Heart.
    Even gonna change rules to allow.
    News is slow in LoS


    You ****s raging on about a lack of a ****ing marquee and being run on the smell of an oily rag.b y the useless ****s at the FFA yet they try and allow shit like this for the big teams or what??

    Firstly, it's more likely that Miller actually chose Tranny and the FFA chose JP, than the opposite, The FFA are a lot less involved now than they were last year. So this could actually be a tactical move by Miller to get someone beside him that has the same thoughts. Thats a glass half full view of it, but we don't know who chose LT.

    Also, New owners can sack both of them as soon as they come in so it's not really the end of the world in that respect. We weren't going to sign a world-class assistant coach anyway so that points pretty mute. This may be Miller getting it done quickly to save risking his decision being dismissed by new owners.

    Where did I say we have to have a world class assistant??

    I just said we should get the best we can get.

    This bloke isn't even the best available judging by the 4 clubs who have failed to retain him.

    It's a stop gap measure. Whilst we are in this ownership limbo with waiting for Mr Lee to arrive the FFA should have a tight hold on the reigns and not be making any decisions or sanctioning any.

    Being the ownership is meant to be sorted in 2-3 weeks anyway I fail to understand why the FFA and Millertime can not wait to then

    Maybe out of the people who applied, we got the best we could get.

    Even with the rumoured new owner, there would be a lot of question marks about the club. One obvious one being, does the new owner have the intention of bringing in their own staff. This job could be a very short tenure. That in itself could have culled a lot of potential applicants straight up.

    I don't know much about the guy, so I am not going to cast any judgement on his quality, but there are a few decisions lately that I think should have been left for the new owner.

    - The coffs home game
    - Staffing such as assistant coach

    I think we are grown up enough to make up our own minds on each appointment. Respect has to be earned and this "in the know" shit is quite tiresome. If you know tell it or stfu. like the players lets see how he goes first before we get all joyous.

    I still need an answer on Steve Lustica ay.
    I feel it hasn't been discussed enough.
