  • Offer another contract to Ante Covic..........and we get rejected again

  • Ring every local goal keeper in town until one answers the phone to board a plane that evening, so to avoid fielding a 15 year old keeper

  • Sign an 18 year old injury replacement from the NYL, albeit has worked out ok

  • Offer a 31 year old a 2 & 1/2 year deal on rumoured to be 300-400k a season.......only for the 31 year old to break down

  • In an effort to sign anyone half decent, we offer 3 year terms and employ the equivalent of George Weah's cousin to seal the deal, just to have him walk out on the deal leaving us with George Weah's cousin.


Hope I haven't missed anyone.

Would seriously like to know what good things that Lawrie has supposedly done in his time at the helm other than his trump esq twitter engagment
New Year's Day:

@LawrieMcKinna So Babalj To WSW, Bridge prob to WSW, Antonis to WSW..... Bulut To Thailand and a Donkey if any one to @NewcastleJetsFC ?..😂

@lquiquer @NewcastleJetsFC give us a chance, you have no idea who the club is speaking to but still slam us

.......And after not wanting to tell who the club is talking to, because of confidentiality blah blah blah The CEO liked the following tweet.....

@lquiquer I am with @LawrieMcKinna on this. Leaking stories to the press means nothing. It's signing on the dotted line that counts.

Signing on the dotted line that counts......well after today counts for nothing if you ask me....
