Although not the most loveable figure in Australian business, Nathan Tinkler is very professional about his work and it has surprised many to hear that the Newcastle Jets owner had a long-lasting feud with former manager Sean-Paul Lodovico. According to assistant manager Craig Deans, the pair would often argue at board meetings and only the directors on the board could stop the fighting. Lodovico announced the feud on an Australian radio station this morning, on a long distance call from Poland.
The feud went public when Lodovico was rumoured to leave for Pogon, which he eventually did. Tinkler had his idea of what the manager should do, whilst Lodovico didn't agree, and the pair went at eachother over social media. Many speculate that Tinkler was in fact a reason for Lodovico's departure, and perhaps the owner of the Jets has robbed them of a potentially great manager, now in Europe and sure to keep moving up. Lodovico's replacement, Gary Cole, has struggled with the Jets and has not won a game yet after 7. Tinkler may just regret letting his personal opinion get in the way of the club's interests.

Nathan really did try to do the best by the club, but his personal interests got in the way of the direction the club was heading. I often disagreed with him, and he took this to mean a challenge of his power. Me and Nathan never really got along.
