Squad

James Delianov stands alone

9 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

The dugout

Andrew Lee: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Newcastle Jets have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Samuel Aduragbemi in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Newcastle Jets this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom

Graduation day at Newcastle Jets

6 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Squad

Time is catching up with Gabriel Cléùr

Everybody at Newcastle Jets saw it before anybody said it, which is how this always goes. At 37 the decline is real and measurable — 3 points — and the only question left is how the club handles somebody it owes a great deal to.

Market

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Callum King is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Dean Davies steps up from the Newcastle Jets academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Dean Davies has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
