Read David Riccio’s sticks from this morning g and you will see why change will do more damage than what it’s worth.
It’s just a contradictory story to keep conversation going.
Doesn’t mean shit similar to the ones over the past few days.

It means players and their managers would rather put up with the current management and see where the fresh plan of signing a lot of young talent takes the club over the next 18 months to 2 years, rather than have mass change and have the uncertainty of not knowing what a potential new club hierarchy has in their plans moving forward.
 
I’m quite sad about the Tim Sheens departure!

I don’t pretend to know the full story and understand there are two sides to every story. But Tim Sheens is a club legend and will always be remembered as our inaugural premiership coach & a fairytale premiership at that.

The Board & CEO made the decision to bring him back to the club to set us back on the path to glory.

And what we will probably never know is what his contribution was to get us to that next premiership! We know the harsh decisions with Maguire & players cut but there is probably a lot Sheens did with our pathways and identifying the next crop for Matt Betsey to get pathways contracted. And what may prove to be his lasting legacy is Benji as coach!

It just shits me to tears how the Chair, Board & CEO once again made a huge decision in backing Sheens and then decided it wasn’t working prior to his contract fulfilment. It’s time for the Board & CEO to accept their responsibility and make change at their level. It’s time for a new CEO and new Chair (unfortunately I believe they have lost the respect of a majority members, fans, media, managers & no doubt other stakeholders). We need a fresh image painted of our Board & senior administration and an image painted with the word RESPECT.
It’s hearsay, as i was heard last night from a person who has a connection to Tim; that Tim wasn’t keen or interested in coaching this year, his task was purely to coach Benji, front the media and keep Benji out of the public or media space.
I too feel sorry for him, he was approached to come back to the club to help the club at a pathways level to get things back in shape. Immediately after due to a bit of media pressure he was promoted to head of football, following that he was pushed into head coach. Tim would most likely still be at the club if he was able to remain in the original position he was sought for.
Hopefully this year was worth it.

Who gives a shit what they think?
Players and their managers have run this club into the ground for the past 18 years now for just as many wooden spoons collected as finals appearances.

Can you post it?

Which players and managers are that? We have not out competed any club for a FG players signature for next season and we have signed some young players yet to prove anything. In the wooden spoon position for two years running that does not indicate that pkayers and managers are buying what the club is selling.

There is no fresh plan it's spin because they we can't sign players we need or want. All clubs aim to retain their young talent and always have but they are also active in attracting and signing quality players.
Under the current administration we can't attract quality players and or coaches because we are considered career killers.
Pascoe and Lee have never given any indication that they would stand down based on the back of poor results instead they create diversions by making false promises and sacking others while protecting each others position.
They have had ample opportunity to improve the standing of the club and instead of improving we have consistently gone backwards. A review was /is necessary to make them own their part in the clubs failure and if that results in their dismissal they can join the list of gagged others that they have paid the price before them.
 
As i've mentioned in another thread, i think now is the time to continue to have our voices heard (even if some disagree). All the drama with Lee shows the completely unprofessional nature of our board, and the complete lack of strategic thinking and planning they have. Everything is reactive.

This why we fail.

Frankly, in my opinion it's unfathomable that anyone currently on the board continues. This board meeting is hopefully the final nail in their metaphorical coffins. They have all demonstrated their incompetence. Hopefully HB group can source some new board members, currently unaffiliated with the current leadership team.

Let them know what you think of their professionalism and performance

Apparently wild man Dennis has an email, if anyone would like to add that it would be welcome, same for Romero.

We need professionals, Managing Directors of companies. People with strategic thinking. Hopefully the review comes to these conclusions too. The wheels of change are turning, and we need to make sure the message gets across that their failings and shortcomings can no longer be overlooked.
Just reading about Benjis reaction to all this fan feedback and suggestions . He says if you listen to the fans you’ll end up next to them.
Interesting observation? No people power for him!
