Well Everyone i would love to see your opinion on John Tambouras. I thnk the majority of us like him as a player and would be glad to see him in the Phoenix!! GREAT NEWS! Spoke to John today and he really wants to come and his agent is trying to get intouch with ricky. But he may get snapped up by another A league club so ye hopefully he comes. He is trialling with other a league teams at the moment however he has said Wellington is the team he wants to play for!

I've emailed Ricki Herbert before and he didn't reply to me, but if someone has got his number we should give him a ring. John Tambouras must be signed. Does anyone know why he wants to play for New Zealand teams, though, considering he is an Australian?

My only concern is his passing ability.

Now we have 3 central defenders...O'dor, Old & Dodd.

And from all source Ricki is chasing a Brazillian Defender.  So I think Ricki wants to have 4 central defenders including 1 quality import.  If he fails to sign a quality import for that position, then he will look at Tambo..

Johns a great guy, talked with him lots when he was with the Kingz but if I was the coach no way would I sign him. He's not up to this level. I seen way to many mistakes he's made that have gifted goals. You dont sign a guy just cause he's nice.
 
No Tambo please Ricki.

Well he turned the defence around for the Knights last season, so how can he not be up to A League standard? We and Bunce were great. Riki is a bloody idiot if he doesn't grab Tambo.

Yeah I agree, Tambo is worth signing, even if just for back up!

How did he turn the defence around? I recall the defence getting better once Ricki came on board but it wasnt Tambo that turned it around.
 
I think if Ricki wanted him, and he wanted to come, he would be signed by now. I guess Ricki, who has now caoched him, dosent rate him either.

Ricki did like him last year trust me but fk knws why he isnt signing him because he did turn the defence round. We need him no doubt. So if neone sees Ricki tell him to sign Tambo. BIG GAME MIRAMAR OLYMPIC 2pm NEWTOWN!!!! GO THE GREEKS!

He tiurned the defence around because Tambo and Buncey formed a good partnership in the second half of the season. For the first half, They were playing all sorts of other combos in the centre backs. Tambo was only signed up halfway through.

Sorry Nighty I can't tell you any better than that!

Hardly the 2nd half, he came into the team in round 17, with 5 games to go, when Ricki was coach. You dont form a good partnership straight away. The whole team cuture was changed than so it cant be attributed to Tambo.
If we want an average team we will get it by signing average players such as Tambo and Christe but I for one want so much more than these guys can deliver.

Ye i get what u mean but Tambos not average. Christie i agree is a boring simple player. And think about it Stephen OLD Absolute average!!! less then 5 games or smething in a league. Tambos much better. More experienced as he jst played overseas in romania. If we dont sign him then Queensland will. up to ricky.

Malaka, Tambo wont come because Ricki doesnt want him, if he wanted him he would of recruited him by now. Game set match.

Quite true actually. I originally hoped we would be seeing Tambo but the signing of Dodd who is a similar player but with European experience has made Tambo's chances of a contract less likely.

well whos gonna play alongside Dodds? I'm not happy about Old or Odor being first choices. Boyens impressed me

Seeing as their all quite similar players i think hell just put together the first squad based on reputation, or form (preseaon cup). Well just have to wait and see.

Yeah I am with Oi Oi where I cant see us being succesful this season and having either O'Dor or Old starting each week.
 
We are clearly still a starting centre back short and I can't see why Ricki has not signed Tambo - he is proven in this league.

O'Dor will develop into a fine young centre back. Nothing special just solid.
 
His currently playing with South Melbourne in the VPL so he will come to us fit. He showed signs of a young talent in the making for the Knights. Will be helped along by Dodd and whatever advice the coaching staff want to give him.

Boyens won't come back to NZ (for now). he's playing in a good league, that'll have plenty of media coverage world wide soon (Becks)...the money wouldnt be any better either. It would be great to get him back there though.


we could do alot worse than O'Dor *cough* Hay *cough*

Any other word on Tambo, pavlo?

almost 19 years ago · edited over 13 years ago

yeah he rang again last night apparently. this time Tambo talked about his troubled childhood with Pavlos, the usual conversation you would have when speaking to a complete stranger in another country.
