GA and the Russians

[Nathan Byrn]

Sydney has upped their offer for Arnie to 380K.

At least we know he hasn't signed yet.

No way I will have to shorten the odds for Sydney now!
3-1 Sydney
3-1 Asia except Australia
5-1 Western Sydney
7-1 The Mariners
10-1 Wont coach
11-1 Brisbane Roar
25-1 The Long Jetty Laserbeams

That doesn't look like a lot for a professional football club.

Please not that Sydney lost ten million dollars last year.

I don't get the point. Would you fire them?

 

[Nathan Byrn]

Sydney FC forum is saying Arnold wants what the outgoing coach got! $500,000 a season.

What is the reason for Sydney favouritism?

They have upped an offer that is still more than 20% less than they paid this year for one of the two most successful coaches of the last two years. Arnie was pissed off at his and Ange's pay in relation to foreign coaches - will that attract him? Their board is notorious for their interference. What is the attraction - apart from an offer has been made?

If money and challenge is the object then Asia would be the raging favourite and that is where I expect him to be if goes anywhere. If he wants to stay around Sydney then Western Sydney is also in the mix.

He also wants Mossy not Corica, Crawley not Kalac and Clarky not their good doctor. It seems to me that he is using Sydney to up his bargaining position.

I'm just saying it looks like we have pretty much minimum (probably less than minimum) staff to run a professional football club. How do you cut that back even further?

Does anyone know why Ned Negus left??

I am new to this bookmaking thing.

 

[marinermick]

Make them more accountable at least.

Their crowds were not that much more bigger than ours, they scraped through into the finals and their customer reach is virtually non-existant.

I can also guarantee that their wages are far superior to Mariners' staff who bust their arses for wages around $40000 a year.

Better job offer somewhere else and in Sydney which means his commute is less now.

And some are owed money, super and have not had a pay rise in 5 years!

Sorry Mick, I was referring back to the suggestions Nathan posted about staff restructuring, Mariners staff list, and then the staff at other clubs... not sure what the idea was there, to make staff cuts (at CCM) or ..??

Sydney definitely have lots of 'splainin' to do...

 

[Gratis]

Anything Ray Gatt writes about Arnie is not made up. The two are good mates and Gatty often has the inside word.

Besides, he would not have survived so long at The Australian by making up stories.

good to know

Seems to me the wisest but not necessarily most likely option for Arnie, should the Russians come through particularly, would be to stay at the Mariners for another year or 2, keep impressing and then make a big move overseas to more money and challenge. at this point if he goes to Syd or the like and takes several years before impressing he's set back as many years as it takes and could miss the boat.

hehe, had to chuckle a few times catching up on this thread

 

[PHANTOM]

The Russian investor does not live in Sydney he has only been to Australia once.If
the deal happens you watch this club turn around for the better,This guy is a mover and shaker.

 

[Blackadder]

Have it on good authority the Ruskis are Gonskis since yesterday, in other words there will be no Russian saviour... :'(

we must be hearing different words on the street :blink:
