Stanton OUT

[mic22]

Actually, Mark knows exactly what I was thinking and is obviously a graduate of "Plague's School of Common Sense".

Not being sure of who is here next season coaching wise means lack of certainty. I wasn't alluding to Dingham in particular nor said abilities of particular players.

Players won't enter negotiations with doubt in their, and their agents minds. And that includes any possible incomings for next season. Another off season of shifting deck chairs.

I see your point, but some players should be honest with themselves and sign with the first team that gives them an offer, without really trying to be too precious.

What difference does a coach make to their game? A good player should be able to adapt to different coaches throughout their career.

Club stability is a different matter: I understand a player who is is reluctant to sign, if the future of the club is uncertain.

(I hope Ingham will go anyway)

The uncertainty around the manager will be a major issue until it's sorted. Stanton has brought alot of these players to the club, If he goes so may some of the players.

Todays Herald says he is gone, now Rallis says a couple of his players will walk, player managers running the show just like thugby league

[plague]

Who cares. We've got Milligan now.

Look at the local juniors he's brought through at Adelaide like Archie Goodwin and Craig Goodwin.

Jets could only wish we have players like that in our squad.

Get to work Mark.

Agree of many former players of Millsy's generation to have a crack at coaching i think Millsy has what it takes to make a real go of it and of the shortlist that was mentioned he was the standout IMO.

I am tipping Stanton ends up at the Roar or Nix.

It’s fine Dane Ingham is a bad footballer so this shouldn’t be a worry to anyone

[Jeterpool]

I'm fine with Rallis removing players, particularly if their contacts have expired. It gives more space for the new coach to get their squad wicket.

If they're under contract, and they have band, I want us to hold firm and not simply bow to demands. Compensate us or you don't get what you want. I don't want to see another Ugarkovic/Ibini screw around

Rallis is a plague on football. The less involved he is, the better.

Name them so we can get to booin'

For anyone unsure, the players under Rallis are: Kosta Grozos, Clayton Taylor, Lachie Bayliss, Callum Timmins, Dane Ingham, Noah James, Matt Scarcella, Ben Gibson, Oscar Fryer and Lachie Rose

Of that group, the ones whose contracts expire at the end of the season are: Clayton Taylor, Callum Timmins, Dane Ingham and Matt Scarcella.

For me, of that group I'd hope we can keep Rose, the crowd is all in on him and he's been a great pickup for us. Taylor and Bayliss are also the kind of young talent that can be sold overseas and fit the model we're going for, but that makes it all the more likely we aren't keeping them. Taylor is off contract and a quality winger, and there will be demand for Bayliss were he to get shopped around. James and Gibson are also both quality young talent, but aren't quite finished projects yet and as a result, could be kept on, especially as neithers contract is up.

As Jeterpool mentions, anyone not off contract like Rose either needs to be locked down, or, if they're moving on, it needs to be through a sale where we can use that money to hopefully sign some quality.

Rallis is a plague on football.

So he's very funny and handsome and delusional?

[Maito Mitch]

God I love the Jets. Don't ever change.

All we need now is to win 6 in a row and miss finals on goal difference after a 99th minute own goal from what was meant to be 4 minutes of added time

The Newcastle Jets are understood to be close to finalising a deal with former Socceroos midfielder Mark Milligan to coach the men?s squad for the 2025-26 A-League season and beyond.
The club issued current boss Rob Stanton a termination notice on Monday, ending a month of speculation over his future. He finishes up on June 30.

Bear the dog and his 16-year-old owner Isaac honed their balance on a skateboard before venturing into the waves to claim the 2025 Best Wave Award at the Noosa championship.
Milligan quickly emerged as the frontrunner to take the reins.
The Newcastle Herald understands the 39-year-old has been in Newcastle this week talking to club management and inspecting facilities.
Stanton?s assistant coach Damir Prodanovic is departing at the end of the year.
Milligan, while familiar with Newcastle after playing 11 games for the Jets 2008-09, is reportedly keen on bringing in locals as his assistants.
The Jets would be Milligan?s first appointment as head coach.

Mark Milligan, right, is poised to become the Jets? new coach. Picture by Simon Bennett
The former midfielder, who is highly regarded and has a close association with Ange Postecoglou, has been an assistant coach at Macarthur and Adelaide.
He left the Reds in January to take up a role with the Malaysian national team where he is assistant to Australian Peter Cklamovski
Stanton signed a two-year contract extension with the Jets in late December.
However, the Newcastle Herald revealed on March 11 that the coach had informed the players that he may not be at the helm next season after an impasse with club management over football department resources and staffing.
The Jets are in ninth place on 26 points and host the 11th-placed Phoenix in a must-win game on Sunday.

Is it normal that Rob will be signed on till June 30th? The grand final is May 31st, and assuming we don't even make it into the top 6, the season ends May 4th.

I guess it depends on the contract.

So are Bear and Isaac part of Milligan's staff or are they going to play?


To be fair I'm probably more excited to see Bear surf than anything to do with the jets at the moment.

Prob get him on a free let's see how he goes.

Copy & paste, you get the lot

4 weeks annual leave post season which would be classed as 31 May. Reckon that’d be standard contract

[Mark325]

Club has made it official that Stanton is moving on.

Read somewhere that Kota seems to still be on board and that Stanton leaving isn’t a dealbreaker for him. Have also seen that Timmins and Taylor are likely to leave

[Jeterpool]

If players want to play, and other offers aren't on the table, they will stay if under contract.
