    David Baldwin is the name of the manager linked to Robinson when he was in charge at the Vancouver Whitecaps. Baldwin is the Owner of Avid Sports Group - and if you read the Squad thread - Avid control / manage the following Jets Players:


    Dimi Petratos
    Kaine Shepherd
    Kosta Petratos
    Patrick Langlois
    Makis Petratos; and
    Nick Fitzgerald


    Our entire front office needs to be shown the door.

    I told you how this shit works in that thread

    We are also gonna be at a loss going forward recruiting anyway
    Bert would have had a pile of contacts in the game that were responsible for leading us to Vargas Jair Arroyo etc

    That now gone

    We now back to Gypo CEOs contacts in the game

    We in a lot of regards should have went Sven as he would have the ability to speak with plenty around the globe in relation to scouting foreigners for us

    I get where you are coming from but without knowing just how many A League players come under this mob relatively speaking it is hard to know for sure if that number is a over representation in regards to the Jets.

    There are some pedestrian footballers on that list however.

    Here's the list:

    We have 6 of them - other clubs one or two.

    That is not the issue

    You going to find large groups at each club managed by the same agent

    Take those guys when Kosta and Makris Petratos got to age they needed a football agent it pretty obvious their first contact is gonna be the guy looking after big bro Dimi

    Young guys like Langlois and guys like Shepphard coming from NPL are most likely gonna take a recommendation from whoever is they get on best with in the senior squad

    So it No great issue we going to have many players represented

    This issue lies with how much control that agent has over transfer and resigning and recruitment policies of the club

    I backing knowing with things that have happened in the past with the Jets we are much more intimate with agents than we should be

    Lawrie gets rid of two of our best players and a Coach - then replaces them with a coach and players all represented by the same firm.

    Coincidence obviously. Or is it simply a case of us not having enough resources to do anything other than rely on player reps for recruitment ?
