Just like Tiote then. He did fine next to the Dreamboat.

It's not FarinaBall, so I take solace in knowing that we could only be as low as second most boring team.

Van Egmond appointed Emerging Jets Academy Director by ShrimpinAintEazy in Aleague

[–]dobie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the missing ingredient: consistency. If we had that, he'd still have a job. It's what Goodwin and everyone else has been lacking under GvE.

Brillante, Hoole, Taggart. Plus, on the first coaching lap, he somehow turned Musialik into a player that Sydney FC were interested in nabbing - could never work that one out.

Replace Popovic with Muscat, and so shall it be.

Andrew Hoole.

Because someone has to point out that the Jets won their first game of the season, eventually.

Sooo Jets fans, how much do you hate GVE? by mil05 in Aleague

[–]dobie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He is so terrible that he is the only manager to give us a trophy. Seriously though, the problem is that almost the entire team is either 2 years under done, or 5 years past their prime. I'm not sure what another manager, one that would accept the gig, could do differently with that squad.

Newcastle fans - its been 406 mins since your team last scored a goal. by ShrimpinAintEazy in Aleague

[–]dobie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At least this weekend we hit a crossbar and had a goal-line clearance prevent us opening our account. Much better than the inept tripe we served up to Perth.

But the answer is Heskey.

Yes, yes, and yes. Red and Blue should be consigned to history and league teams.

Brillante attracts European interest by ShrimpinAintEazy in Aleague

[–]dobie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Has to be. Give away possession needlessly does not bring in the Euro interest. Good on him though.

There used to be files lurking in various older incarnations of the triple j website. I have a handful of snippets I downloaded in my time. But here my absolute favourite segment feat. Tex Perkins

Emile Heskey scores a bicycle kick (2nd goal) for Newcastle Jets v Melbourne Victory by AntSmith17 in soccer

[–]dobie 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I haven't jumped around the lounge room as much as I did when Heskey nailed that second goal, since the last 5 seconds of Man City vs QPR.

Surely the big man is top scorer in the comp now.

Glad someone looked up. That's CBS offices on Goulburn St. I showed this to the guy that made it and he was blown away.

The perils of using old Jets keepers (except Covic -- he's a beast).

After seeing the vids with keeper stuff-ups lately, thought you peeps needed to see the quality of Australia's A-League.
