p s lol Lambton Jaffas...............Cant get over that name it cracks me up all the time, im not saying that its a well run club, but maybe that should be the new franchise from the cesspit when the jest go under

GVE is a dickhead. If Hearfield and GVE dont get along that is their own problem but for GVE to bully Hearfield in a way that involves turning the entire team against him is most childish from GVE and not what youd expect from one of top managers in the a league. There is no way id expect that from LM

Believing this actually happened is childish

he made a public statement essentially calling him a dickhead and saying that the likes of him aren't wanted at the club. what do *you* interpret that as?

looks like its getting worse for Con and GVE

Now Adam's Off As Jets Rebuild

JETS star Adam Griffiths is the latest Newcastle star set to quit the club as he flies off to Europe in search of a new deal.
Griffiths has a get-out clause in his contract that allows him to leave the Jets if he can find a new club by the end of April.

And with the Jets failing to offer him a contract extension, he is now set to go looking for a new home.

"I have been waiting to hear from the Jets about an extension to my contract but have not heard a thing," Adam told the Newcastle Herald.

"I think it is an ideal time to be doing that. I want to secure my future with the club. They know my situation, but I have not heard a thing.

"I'm not going to go into the club and say, 'I want a new contract.' I think my performances on the pitch should be rewarded.

"I have been as loyal as I can. I have not talked to other Australian clubs, and I kept it quiet that I have a get-out clause.

"I fly to England next week. If they want to talk to me they can. If they don't, who knows what will happen."

Griffiths is the latest to join the exodus out of the A-League Champions side.

Andrew Durante and Troy Hearfield have both joined Wellington Phoenix and Stuart Musialik and Mark Bridge signed for Sydney.

Adam's brother Joel is currently on loan with Avispa Fukuoaka in Japan and may not return, while skipper Jade North also wants to quit.

The grand final winners may have lost the spine of their side, but the arrival of Ruben Zadkovich and a spike in fans' interest is cause for some optimism in Newcastle.

Ruben is a good bet, were just finalising things now but hes signed an in-principle agreement, Jets CEO John Tsatsimas told au.fourfourtwo.com today.

However, what is really exciting the club is the enormous support the Jets are expecting for its title defence in season four.

There has been a massive expression of interest in season memberships, said Tsatsimas. Its looking good. Were not resting on our laurels though.

A figure of around 15,000 would be something to aspire to [for memberships] but we dont want to put a figure on it just yet."

The Jets support has exploded over the last year or so. In season one of the A-League, the club averaged 8,912 for its home and away season.

By season two, that average rose to 11,442 and last season, the Jets drew an average of 13,209 to their home games.

Added to that attendances over the 20,000 mark for last seasons finals matches and the club is confident that they can take their crowds to a new level in season four.

Weve seen the second draft of the season four draw and were very excited, added Tsatsimas



i get the feeling that the scum could be fielding a team of 11 scarecrows next year

[skilbeck]

The Jets to announce their newest signing?

"I have been as loyal as I can. I have not talked to other Australian clubs, and I kept it quiet that I have a get-out clause.

Hands up anyone who didn't know he had a get out clause.

Anyone? anyone at all?

 

[skilbeck]

The loss of Durante, Musialik, Griffiths and possibly North is what is going to hurt them big time. Thatd be like us losing Jedi, Wilko, Hutch and Boogs in the one year. Something id hope would never happen all at once.

Also I thought Cons plan was to keep both the Griffith's at all cost, even if it meant making them royalty.

 

[marinersman]

GVE must really be getting the s**ts with Con by now surely.

I wonder if there's any chance of him saying "f**k you Con, I just won you the toilet seat and now you're doing this to me" and leaving.

He would easily get a job with oneof the start up sides in 09/10. Wouldn't suprise me if he left too and who could blame him.

It's time for the question mark to be taken out of the thread title, me thinks.

 

[midfielder]

Mariners supporters..............this may be a bit extreme.............but in fairness to our northern neighbours...........they will need to field a team next year.......

So here is my suggestion Mariners supporters have a some play off rounds, and the best could be sent to the Scum on loan to help them get through next year.

 

[skilbeck]

yeah marinersman thats what im predicting. either that or when Con doesnt give GVE anything to work with next season, Con blames GVE and sacks him. I reckon any of the sides that need a change in management over the next one or two seasons will snap him up quickly. As a matter of fact when Kossie is finished at Sydney (cant be too long) I can see GVE as the next manager there

 

[midfielder]

Interesting question poised by Marinersman ..............about GVE.

Maybe he and Remo will stay in Europe. I reckon GVE must be close to pulling the pin and saying Con ...........! ! * *

 

[marinersman]

No doubt he'll have no trouble getting a new club skillbeck. I do think he's the best coach in the HAL.

As far as I'm aware he was already in the Newcastle area before getting the gig so I'm not so sure about him up and leaving. Sydney could be a possibility.

Why send the best of us? send the worst! I don't think anyone here would pull on that shirt.

The club up North was talking about signing Italians so the sack wackers tactics will still be around next year even if he ain't.
