SYDNEY, May 21 (Reuters) - The chairman of Dundee United has said that any potential bid for the licence to run beleaguered Australian side Newcastle Jets would be a personal initiative and not one linked to the Scottish Premiership club.
Football Federation Australia (FFA) revoked the licence of the Jets' owners Hunter Sports Group on Wednesday after their owner Nathan Tinkler placed the club into voluntary administration.
Tinkler, who had failed to pay wages to the club's playing and administration staff as it racked up more than A$2.7 million ($2.13 million) in debts, told Australian media he was in negotiations to sell the club to Dundee United.
