Reporter - "Will Mark Jones be here next season?".
McKinna - "It's too early to tell. He has a 2 year contract".

The kiss of death, Jones is #gone

Enjoy the pissant town that is Adelaide.

When did he get a two year deal?

[Jeterpool]

When did he get a two year deal?

23/9/2016 when he was appointed.

23/9/2016 when he was appointed.

He is contracted until the end of next season.

But when asked if he will still be here next season the first thing Lawrie said is "it's too early to tell".

The kiss of death, from his own mate. The scenes!

And we all know Mr Lee has no problems sacking coaches

[Frodo]

And we all know Mr Lee has no problems sacking coaches

He has only sacked One coach the entire time he has owned us!

Or

He has sacked 50% of coaches we've had within their first year?

Or

He has sacked every single coach named Scott within the first few months of meeting them?

Any other tedious links you want to make? LOL

I am hoping McKinna is unsure because he doesn't even know if his own job is safe. Every single member of staff and player should be on notice today that people will not be here next season. Send down some independent guys to interview everyone ("Office Space" Style) and find better replacements.

If you haven't seen the movie do yourself a favour. You will thank me.

How much time you got?

OK so there's lots of hypotetical statements/wishes/demands going around at the moment. All of these have the assumtption Mr Lee doesn't mind throwing his cash around willy-nilly - which I highly doubt is the truth.

I've got the sense the majority here want Jones, Boogaard, Kokko and to some extent Brown paid off from their remaining 1 and 2 (Brown) year deals. That all costs money.

Would you all pay out Jones, Zane, VanStratten, Boogaard, Kokko, Brown or "players" if it was at the expense of a marquee player and recruiting players outside of the cap? Because a new coach like Mulvey or Merrick (examples of names put up) it is reasonable to assume are going to be demading a much higher wage than Jones. Lee is a businessman and will have allocated a budget to the Jets. How are we going to spend that cash??

Where do people lie?

Is this what we want or what we think will happen?

What i want is McKinna gone more than anyone else.

What i think will happen is Lee won't do anything major until we stop being a pretty toy to show off to his investors. He only owns us so he can show us off as a part of his empire. We can't be relegated and the teams salary is capped, why would he want to spend money on us if he doesn't have to?

What kid parades his second-hand rusty bike with one pedal & no handle bars to the other kids? This is the bit I don't get when people say Lee isn't interested in winning, only showing off the club.

I agree If the Jets fail it will be a blemish on Mr Lee's business portfolio and people may question his commitment to his business endeavors. Time will tell how serious he is about the Jets.

I think the question is: Why did Mr Lee buy the club?...... To sell lights in Australia? (Except the Member who bought a Ledman light, who else has?).... To sell lights in China?...THEN he needs Jets to be A-League winners and to achieved that / or at least go to ACL HE knows for sure he will have to spend big $$$$$..... If not what's the point to run at a loss the Jerks.....

We think we are rubbish but i'm sure Chinese investors don't follow the HAL.

You name me one football club owner that owns their club for reasons other than showing off? If you think people buy football clubs only because they are 'passionate about the fans' you my friend are delusional.

I'm sure 98% of owners world-wide want their fans to be happy but not as the expense of good business. Lee wouldn't know if we are unhappy right now anyway. He has 8000 members on the books which is about average for this league and we aren't getting relegated.

Quite happy to be proven wrong but everything he has done so far has been using us as a pawn in a bigger game he is playing. Nothing has been to solely benefit us.

He could make us a club that covers it's own costs pretty easily. The bills in this league aren't that big, and he could get enough sponsorship/shirt sales/members to break even.

Yet again, happy to be proven wrong i just haven't seen any signs showing me otherwise yet.

Whats VanStratten done wrong? Thought he has down well with Duncan this season and last season has did well with Birraz. If you were gonna sack coaches surely then the chinese assistant coach gets the sack to, does he even do anything at the club?

The two coaches should be the first to go and then whoever is bought in as new coach can have the final say with regards to support staff.
