Andy Harper was completely weird on the wireless this morning.
When asked about the dramas at the Jets he kept cryptically bringing up Michael Bridges name but without saying anything.
It was like he was giving it old 'wink wink' but being on the radio it probably wasn't as effective cause we couldn't see him.
But yeah Michael Bridges ey.

Bringing him up in what way? What do you think he was implying?

Was his suggestion that Bridges was actively involved in the chaos?

He said it was 'interesting' (emphasised the word 'interesting') that Michael Bridges always seemed to be in the middle of the turmoil yet always survived (and not just the latest incident, but the past few years of turmoil).
Then went on to say Bridges' name again in a weird way.

It was very vague but it just seemed like Harper wanted the listeners to know that Bridges was right in the middle of all this.
Anyway that's the way I heard it.

Why delay the inevitable - the club should be completely formed, moulded, etc around him.

It's taken me a few long years, but I've finally got people opening their eyes

Newcastle Bridges FC ?

[hausmann]

i wondered why he was rubbing purple shoulders. Does tinks ever do any good? nope, just an aids spreading disease of a bloke.

God I love the forum sometimes. What a pearler of a statement.

[Jetmaster]

Geez - with this traffic I trust our bandwidth covers us from another of our lockouts !

****s sake. If there was ever a time to burn your bridges...

[belchardo]

nah man, we've got to build some bridges and move on.

I'm sure Tinkler will cross the Bridges soon enough. Or is he the troll underneath it?

Taylor Reagan will be announced as skipper...

Grif... organised meeting on revolt against stubbins....

after meeting with players.. grif phones tinkler himself....


tinkler blew his stack.

and sacked everyone that said anything.

[pv4]

I don't understand why Tinkler is hating on the revolts so much nowadays. The last two, on the Culinas and GVE, were evidently the right call - and Tinkler should be happy that the players were man enough to stand up.

In this instance we're playing negative football, the coach is pissing off the entire playing group, the players unite together and he blows his stack.

Tinkler must just be that far over the whole debacle that he's taking the easy option of removing the players rather than doing what is right, and not caring about the mess he creates.

[Jetmaster]

Griff isn't the most tactful guy in the world - probably said "ïs that you fatboy?"

Regan as captain, hey. He hasn't featured in the team and appeared 5th choice behind Kew, Madaschi, Welsh and Gallagher. Do he and Stubbins get on?

Not doubting your info (or is it your gut feel?), I just find it surprising.

[Jeterpool]

I can see today's press release - Michael Bridges to come out of retirement to skipper the Jets for the rest of the season.

Rather ironic the first time this season these blokes were united as a playing group and all on the same page that it blew up big time
