Mariners Squad - HAL 14 - 2018- 2019 - The challenge for Mike Mulvey is over

[Antlion]

I hear he's on about $150,000 currently

coming from about $83,000 at the Jets (these are Lawrie's figures he quoted me)

Which probably wouldn’t be too bad if he upped the work rate and found form more often but too much for what we’ve actually got.

If I were him I’d be considering my value compared to what we’re paying Mcglinchey or Simon. No way I’m taking sub 100k of those guys are on more. He’s equalled Matt’s total and played 300 minutes less. Free kicks are a trickier prospect than penalties too.

 

[garlo]

Is it bad that I didn't think twice about this error?

"Yep now we are signing cricketers"

 

[Ozhammer]

Please explain what you’ve heard about the young boys visa’s?

I don’t know specifics, just that ‘someone’ has screwed up the visa application and there are implications as a result. At best it will delay those boys getting clearance to play at worst I guess they could be on their way back to Sheffield.

We do have some form in that area, the club tried to sign Youssuf Hersi in the January window three of four seasons back only for ‘someone’ to apply for a holiday visa instead of a working one. Upshot was, the time it would have taken to correct the error meant he would only play a handful of games for us, so the club parked the whole deal.

Allegedly, said muppet didnt know they needed a work visa

 

[Tevor]

Allegedly, said muppet didnt know they needed a work visa

I might not know I have to renew my membership, if this is true I honestly don’t know what to think.

 

[shipwreck]

Who the f**k are they hiring at this club? No wonder we are a laughing stock, can we get some people with some football experience in for f**ks sake?

 

[Big Al]

Allegedly, said muppet didnt know they needed a work visa

We need a FMD option

 

[BaysideMariner]

We need a FMD option

More of a FML too

 

[greenlig]

Don’t need to know football to know you need visas for foreign employees. If this is true, who the hell is in charge of this. I like Shaun, but if there is substance to this, the buck stops with him.

 

[FFC Mariner]

This is unsubstantiated gossip to be fair

 

[midfielder]

Fans are in a world of hurt today... from the most successful club in Hal to a joke does that to you...

Fans make the club, and the world is full of Football clubs and other businesses who lost their base because of their own incompetence.

We have some players to resign, Tommy, Pain, hopefully O'Neil if available, as starters and then some others... with West Melbourne coming in and both the Scum & Drive By's looking to strengthen their squads ... its beyond obvious we need to sign players a squad can be built around and players who by being here sorta say to other players, you can come here...

At some point, leadership, which includes decision making needs to occur ...

 

[Wombat]

I'm happy to keep him on minimum wage as a squad filler.

Give him the option. $70k 1st year. If you score more than X goals and play more than X minutes you can have a further year on 80k.

No pressure on a free kick.

 

[turbo]

No pressure on a free kick.

If you’ve got a game tied up in the last few minutes would you rather a penalty or free kick outside the box?

 

[Wombat]

Penalty obviously.....what it your point??

 

[turbo]

what it your point??

Perhaps I’ve misunderstood yours. You said no pressure on a free kick so it sounded like you were saying that Hoole had it easier than Simon. I agree there’s more pressure on the pen but it’s a far greater opportunity to score.

 

[midfielder]

This is unsubstantiated gossip to be fair

Given the number of overseas players we have signed and a number on short term deals I don't think it would be a lack of knowledge ... """if""" it has happened its the person getting the visa and the person checking that person got the visa need to be given the arse

 

[Big Al]

We just successfully completed Jem’s visa so I find it hard to believe but with the way we are stuffing things up who bloody knows

 

[Spacks]

I honestly wish you'd keep this shit to yourself, it's disheartening.
