    I personally was really impressed with the heart the players showed to hustle back to halfway after the Coasties goal. Also how great is that Jets house huh? That paint job looks beautiful. Some fans will never be satisfied...

    Even though he had his negatives Im really missing the way miller we get off his arse and shout instructions etc at players during matches. Where is this newy passion Jones goes on about. Maybe his too used to being an assistant and staying seated on the bench

    People wondered what positives Miller brought to the table... an absolute **** ton more than this guy. Haven't seen a single thing that suggests he knows what he's doing.

    You can clearly see he's worked under GVE....different team each week, players out of position, leaving best players on bench, move away from tactics that suit the team strengths, try to win possession stats with slick backline passing....only to cock it up.....

    Nah, a transfer implies that there's some other team out there that would take him.

    I can give or take a coach screaming on the sideline - that's personality, not coaching ability.

    But for me, what Miller did that the few before him didn't do, was actually smartly recruit players. Our squad at the moment, not counting injuries, is the best its been in quite a while. He was able to attract plenty of players that either weren't rated elsewhere or from overseas etc, and have performed well. That's what smaller clubs have to do. You can't outbid bigger clubs for sure things, you have to go do the legwork to unearth people or discerningly give people second chances. There is plenty of players playing for us at the moment that I like watching and for most of them we have Miller to thank.

    Spot on. Miller's recruitment was consistently good. Leo & Trif weren't flops. They contributed plenty, just not enough, and although I didn't like Leo's attitude, a full season without injury and I think he could have propelled us into top 6. Nordstrand and Ugarkovic turned last season around, and Clut & Nabbout have been standouts this season. Kokko looks dangerous, although unfit at the moment.

    Think I said toward the end of last season that it felt like a moneyball approach and would likely take at least one more off-season to replace a few more pieces. Our management in all their wisdom decided not to go that way :|

    maybe as a collective we could start a new club based in Scone fro example, and we could "transfer" unwanted Jets to us, we could pay their wages, we'd be sponsored by a rich sugar daddy from China, someone in lighting perhaps, and help the jets take some dead wood off their books. Mutual agreement, players could be paid their wages, live at he beach and trot out for Scone United on away games. We could take Jones too if that helps. Who is with me?

    I question the point of subbing on Ma LeiLei in stoppage time.
    If you are going to give him a few minutes to appease the bosses, the F3 Derby isnt the place.
    Hoole dragged his useless sorry ass around for the last 15 minutes, surely the fresh legs of Ma could have helped?
    If he has any ability, why not give him a chance to show it? He just wasted our own time by making the sub as late as he did and it was another abysmal example of the lack of foresight & creativity Jones possesses.
    We could have even gone to 3 at the back once the Scum subbed off Powell too.
