100% we don't have any spots left for squadies!!
We don't even have a manager. Pretty sure the season is already over. Old optimistic khunt I am
I would say 50% of our starting side from this season should be next years squaddies/starters, the other 50% need to be let go. Go hard at 6/7 quality players.
Even though I hope we dont get Merrick, one positive may be he might entice Burns to come to Newy. He was Wello coach when he killed it here.
Have to agree. We don't have room for another DM considering the few squad spots left.
Just awesome Jones wasted spots on Petratos and Shabow.
My main thought since hearing about merrick too.
Burns got his first minutes since november this morning i beleive and got sacrificed after 20 due to keeper getting sent.
Although I don't agree on signing anyone before the new manager is signed, damn Castro looked like a class above on Sunday
Don't worry
Miller and Stubbins filled the other spots up with squaddies
Just more proof that the decision to fire Jones was knee jerk to shit results and the powers answer to a lynch mob and don't have a plan or balls to stand strong
If it was planned to replace Jones then we don't sign Our Caravan Georgevski Shabow Petratos etc
That means he is going to be fresh
Another possible for Merrick - the attraction of Bonevacia to the club?

Go hard at 6-7 players is a must
But we also need to get creative.
If Kokko is not wanted by Merrick then we need to get him a gig in the Finnish PL and free up a spot.
Repeat with the rest of the squad as well.
That going to be the big test
Getting a few extra spots free by getting creative and organising some deals
Knowing this club they probably don't have enough space under the cap to make solid offers to anyone decent. And they don't have enough money or indeed non-monetary incentives to entice anyone of marquee quality to risk their reputations.

Is it still purely speculation that Merrick is new coach going he seems the media's favourites?
i hear he is offered the job whilst other reports state Lee is interviewing candidates?
Does anyone actually know what is exactly happening at the moment
[QUOTE=white city;180828]Foti said it is so
Just don't doubt the man
safest signing ever
Making a signing like this automatically raises the expectations of the whole club. Watch quality players beg to come here if he did. I just don't think our management get that.
Would be 1st name selected in any A-League squad. If an A-league manager told you he wasn't wanted in a team they are dreaming!
WE DON'T DO WALKING AWAY !
We will ask them about their approach attracting players to the club.

[QUOTE=MFKS;180831]Same man said - "Tim Cahill, you heard it here first"....
Wish I knew the identity of the guy I met in a pub a while back who got off his phone and said - "Emile Heskey", 2 months before we signed him!
I reckon Arnold would say no
And I not basing that on their success this season
I basing it on he has a front line who actually run hard for 90 mins
Castro is much like ADP was in defending
What ??????????????????? Castro does a shit load of defensive / cover work when they don't have the ball. His work rate for a guy 34 that scores goals and makes assists is awesome.
