    Captain Obvious is great.

    Captain Oblivious is great (not that he cares).

    The rest are terrible.

    starting to worry already, if Martin has got his way (as was always likely seeing as he now pays the bills, albeit a bit like Con at the moment, i.e. tight-assedly) I anticipate he will also expect/demand his boy gets real game time, not just riding the pine or playing in the youth squad but genuine minutes, maybe even starting - would Jones be game enough to ignore a directive from the boss??
    Life isn't the same without Con... but it can only improve without Tinks...

    Nothing like Con.

    The only time Con fiddled with the team was when he brought in a former European Golden boot winner to rev them up then we went on to win the comp despite GVE being such a shitkhunt.

    Also, Con signed Griff despite pretty much every club in the world chasing him.

    Hail Con.
    Hail Griff.

    Can anyone explain the benefit to me of Lee forcing us to sign a Chinese player who's not even good enough to crack our starting line-up?

    I can't make any sense of it whatsoever. I certainly wouldn't start following a crap Chinese team because some random young Aussie was sitting on the bench.

    Is there a possibility this kid might actually help us?

    I'm not seeing them joinging is all about contributing on the field. Rightly or wrongly, it's about increasing our exposure and support in China.

    People in China are streaming and viewing our games. This player will sell shirts. This could also help attract more sponsors from overseas into our club.

    The Chinese player is more than simply what they will add to the squad. And I think there's a good chance they could add something to the squad. They aren't a kid (27) and they have been playing in Portugal 2.

    According to McKinna on twitter:
    "One chinese player in the squad gives more media coverage in China"
    "sponsorship and awareness for Newcastle and the Hunter region"
    "sponsorship from China and from australian companies wanting to move to China"

    I myself not convinced of any benefits
