Lee cutting and running, costly decision but now someone will buy them for a good price and that will pay back the funding provided by the league. Unlike MC who just keeps hanging on and dragging us through his financial pain as well. Sometimes I wish they would strip him as well.

Lee legitimately hasn’t put in a cent for over 14 months now. They’re f**ked. At least MC is keeping things ticking over here.

Let’s see who is better off over the next 12 months. The clubs will now sell them with no owner to screw it up. We seem destine for death by a thousand cuts with MC holding out and trickling money into the club.

They’ve had (at least) 4 prospective owners pull out over the last few months. Things are very f**king dire up there, and tbh I’m thankful we’re not in the same boat.

Didn’t we have a few prospective buyers walk away as well. Nothing has been heard on this front for some time.

Nothing has been heard because there are NDAs in place. Still hanging around though. Until then it’s BAU.

Careful what you wish for.

The other teams may decide that a team on the Central Coast is not worth keeping.

I sometimes wonder what would be worst. Not sure if I can handle another rubbish year of severe under funding and excuses. Seems like the planets are aligning for another difficult year for CCM. Hope I’m wrong on all counts.

The article mentions not being able to afford playing at their stadium. I wonder what other options (& cheaper locations) the Jets have?

I'm trying to think of a ground they ould play at in Newy...............and I cant. CCS might be an option short term

The article doesn’t say they can’t afford the ground it says they haven’t paid their bills including to the stadium operator. I would imagine that would be part of the expenses covered in the short term as an operational cost but they won’t repay the debt.
License will likely be sold for the cost of the debts including what the other owners tip in.

Might be a bit more left over depending on the state of the books and how many interested parties. Although if the debts are bad enough I’m not sure where that puts the business entity and whether they can Phoenix to avoid their debts.

Wasn’t Lawrie mayor of GCC once upon a time? Perhaps he could cut his losses up there and ask for his old job back, oh wait....

Birmingham Gardens?

Birmingham Gardens?

Sounds like a Houso Commision development!

Only appropriate for them ?
Seriously, it was home to Newcastle Breakers in the NSL days.

Too small at around 2000 capacity - Edgeworth's ground would be a better option. Still only 5000. Showground No 1 would have been an option but I think that is being upgraded at the moment.

Sports ground No.2 might be more suitable or Broadmeadow Magic’s home ground

Hang in there mate. It will be so much sweeter when we eventually clean up.

Bernie's being released after paying compensation, and is likely to go to WSW.

Is there any team the Wanderers won't pinch from?

 

[FFC Mariner]

Imagine having no strikers..................oh, hang on

 

[shipwreck]

f**k... It's getting almost shameless.

Like, nobody likes Western Sydney anyway but seriously, this is ridiculous, at a certain point it goes beyond ambition and starts eating into your business ethics...
