Well they offer a very average product.

Do you think it's OK for them to ask us to be members, pledge money to them to keep the club going during covid then treat us purely as fast food customers?
You don't think a chairman or CEO should listen to us fans? You really can't see the difference between us and Macca's?

You don't think a chairman or CEO hould listen to us fans?

You can sell anything to anyone. The idiot isn’t the seller, it’s the buyer. The only thing they will listen to supporters about is what design members hats should be. Why are they going to listen to supporters/members on how to run the club. Especially when the supporters can’t even agree what the biggest issue Is. Some will say Brooks, others will say Pascoe and Lee, others that we don’t play at one home ground. Some might even say it’s the mid strength beer at home games. It’s a no win situation for the club.

Let’s be real here that guy pisses on the club 24/7 if I was lee I’d be annoyed with him too, lee wins this one for me, id rather have boys who can punch than weak chumps.

That's fine but they piss in everyone's pockets that they do listen to the fans.

I love it when fans of our Management always assume that they are finding out "the rats in the ranks" and are on top of everything, how can you blindly give them the benefit of the doubt? They're inept at building a successful Club, where does your blind faith come from?

Are you okay mate?
I used rhe words "is it perhaps"
I didn't say "I assume"

I said this,
"Is it Perhaps that Lee is listening in trying to find out who those "rats in the ranks" are?"

Now, in fact your the one who is making assumptions,
So, please let us all know in honesty what do you rhink about yourself in making this silly needless assumprion?

If Lee actually meant what he said in the text, he wouldn't have bothered to respond. That's what makes it funny.
Thin skinned bully with Napoleon complex.

Pisses on those that run the club, not the club. big difference. If I bag Albo does that mean I'm pissing on Australia?

 

[Jolls]

The only thing they will listen to supporters about is what design members hats should be.

So you mean we get a say in the hats? So it was one of us who came up with white hats. I've been pissed of at the club hierarchy this whole time for no reason!

 

[GNR4LIFE]

That's fine but they piss in everyone's pockets that they do listen to the fans.

Of course. It’s marketing.

Rob took it upon himself to release Lee's email to his legon of followers and took the opportunity to invite Lee on his critically acclaimed podcast and that was Lee response.

You can assume in his response Lee understood the gist of the podcast

Certainly yes trying to do damage to the club.

Lee specifically asked for his response to be made public.

You really like to stretch the truth ay.

Your acting like membership is a charity. You do get a ticket to the game and a lovely hat for your hefty contribution to membership.

During covid you could opt in to a refund.

Lee only brought up the membership due to constant criticism from the pod.

Lee specifically asked for his response to be made public.

Yes mate, Rob has all the journos email addresses and a lot of time on his hands.

Do you think they got the info from listening to the pod?

Hey Tony. They sell non ticketed memberships too.
You didnt get back to me before. Is calling our pack 'crap' online abuse?

Of course. It’s marketing.

Well if he continues to talk about the fans like he has he'll fail at marketing too.

I agree. The fact he demeans supporters who aren’t members is a disgrace. What can I do about it though?

I know im not going to be popular for saying this, but i honestly appreciate Josh putting this Pod together and yes the popularity has increased and the show has improved. I have listened to the show since its started and he has added Rob and Shane. Personally i prefer West Tigers Podcast as i find it quite professional and enjoy listened to their insights and opinions...
However the Westlife Pod has lost me now , the way Rob (shock jock) in particular has for last 18 months week after week continually bagged Pascoe and Lee has become so tiresome and quite boring.. Yes the response from Lee was quite poor considering his role and his job. However, Rob did call Lee a f---wit and use other colourful language throughout his ridiculous rant, and went way too far in my humble opinion. Now a week later this has made the papers and yes Rob has got his 5 minutes of fame which he loves and will be basking in the glory of his self righteous opinions and do not dare not agree with what he says and believes in!!
It is very easy to criticise but I have not have heard one solution from shock jock Rob except get rid of Pascoe week after week month after month.
I love the Tigers as much an any other supporter, yes Im frustrated with the club and yes Pascoe does annoy me with his Political jargon lingo. I believe he has got the club in a solid financial position, would you rather be rubbish on the field as we are and also have no financial stability off the field. Rob keeps saying what a passionate fan he is but refuses to be a member cause Pascoe is there, well i love the Tigers and i will continue to be member because i love my club whether Pascoe is there or not.
I certainly would not want to a appear on a podcast when your continually vilified and criticised for everything you do in a rude and childish way.
This has now hit the papers and fox sports and wont help us as a club or getting the coach we want, so thanks Rob.

You can stop giving them money.
