    It's primarily this, tbh. That, and we want they best at our club, but we have a CEO who's only past experience was to run a club into the ground!

    Issues I've had with Robbie:
    What experience does he have running a club? Seriously.
    The move away from Gold
    Not signing Griffo
    The debacle of the kits during 11/12 (FFS it couldn't have been that hard)
    The continual BS coming from him
    Us not being interested in Flores when he's a number 10 and that's what we need (GvE's words)
    Letting RyGriff go for next to nothing. That cost us a finals spot this season.
    GvE's contract extension.
    Him signing players GvE didn't want, given that worked so well with Con and Jardel.
    The average handling of things from him in the whole Tinks licence dummy spit fiasco
    The departure of the club captain Jobe Wheelhouse mid season in what appears unhappy circumstances
    The alleged interference from him in team selection (ie talking GVE into playing Bridges)
    The signing of a crock in Culina on his watch
    The general pissing away of the fortune we have had from Tinks coughing up cash to build a club ie with what Tinks has given to us we should have seen more success
    The piss poor way the club have treated fan faves when departing the club
    The lack of marquee after Culina was punted despite him telling us we were getting someone
    The continual jobs for the mates shit Zane Dodd etc being given jobs
    The way the club withdrew a contract offer they had made for Franny Jeffers in pretty poor manner
    The mid strength beer shit we endure at Stade de Newy
    The letting the FFA move our game against Nix to suit the Kiwis WCQ at the expense of our club and upcoming matches and doing **** all to stop it
    Not offering Lord Griffo a contract. At least publically announce we offered a deal. That way it was Lord Griffos decision to snub us not the clubs fault for not offering a decent deal. Play the game of public perception better
    General shitness for being a wanker who refused to play for Newy after the NSL finished and the HAL started by signing for Smurfs for a few more dollars despite being a ****ing local and the captain


    As for Tinks losing money, well with the TV deal likiley to cover most of the cap next season, surely our sponsorships and memberships deals will be enough to cover any excess costs, so there's no real reason that we can cover the cap and Heskey at a minimum.

    Summed up nicely Thomas. Sure there are more cock ups but that pretty much sums up RM.

    This fits our policy of "signing no one in their prime" quite well.

    I'd argue Zane's appointment was a good one.
    A UEFA "A license" shouldn't be sneezed at. Nor his experience at QPR in the academy.

    I'd argue Bridgeys start was a good and overdue one.

    No offence to the local league, but a UEFA A license qualified coach with recent experience in professional European leagues as a player and experience in youth academy coaching in a professional club such as QPR has to trump most other options.

    Full credit for Zane for getting that certification not knocking that. Also love the bloke is Newy. More irritated with the jobs for the boys aspect of his appointment.

    Zanes CV wasn't necessarily sparkling enough to warrant the gig. The gig came about from the prior relationship Zane had with Middleby. Remember sitting just next to Zane and Middleby at a Jets Yoof game just after Zane got the gig. The pair of them were chatting away and from the sound of the conversation they knew one another pretty closely

    yeah, far better to take a punt on someone with little accreditation and who you dont know, than someone with the one the most highly regarded training credantials in world football, experience in professional set ups as a player abnd as a coach, and that you know you can work with.
    hard to call Zanes' apointment as "jobs for the boys" appointment.

    Dodd's is a little strange though, non-newy boy, no experience in the role, or playing/working at a higher level.
