I wasn't overly against Fulton coming in....

1 - He's got a better track record than WMac in the last 10 years...
(He wasn't selling real estate in the SW before we employed him for a start)

2 - Sheens surrounded himself with yes men last time he was here and had anyone moved on who tried to challenge him....
An outside voice would never be a bad thing.

3 - Sheens and WMac kicked this all off 10 years ago....

I think Fulton was there to give the higher ups a voice at recruitment level as they knew they'd have none with Sheens.

The problem was it was Lee and Pascoe who pursued the failed sheens recovery

The problem is, Cambo Stadium is a dive, no one ever turns up there and we always lose there.

Plus if you moved the entire operation out there long term it's a harder sell to get players to move out there, unless you kept all the training operations at Concord which is much closer to the city

There is another COE being built at Campbelltown but I don’t think it’ll be as big as the one in Concord. As in terms of the stadium it needs a massive overhaul. Plus attendance needs fixing before making the move. If it does happen it’ll still be a few years away at least.

I like Lee, it's well documented on here but
he knocked on 20 out. Things could have/
should have been different, but here we are

He loves the club, the job probably just didn't suit his skillset.
He's copped a heap of unfair criticism about his interview today, but to me he was very restrained considering what happened to him yesterday.
Whatever you think of him the way it was handled covered nobody in glory.

Well said TP, couldn't agree more mate
 
They had a fair shake and failed. Results is what matters at the end of the day. Someone has to go for those back to back spoons. Let's be real. You can't under perform worse than that.

WT's Board

Lee Hagipentalis
Tony Andreacchio - HB Board Member
Dennis Burgess - HB Board Member
John Doraghy
Julie Romero - HB Board Member
Danny Stapleton - Remaining WT Board Member
Rick Wayde - HB Board Member

So.......
4/7 Board Members effectively 'sacked themselves'

This pedantry and sophistry is insane......

HBG Board met on Monday night and dismissed the entire WT Board. Im not sure how or why you would want to twist it.

From the Chairmans mouth.

Dismissed Wests Tigers chairman provides insight into board upheaval

It all came to a head on Tuesday.

Fix up Cambo Ala Comm Bank . Put the junior COE next to it . Have the main base at concord for corporate and player attractiveness reasons .
Actually make a visible footprint in the area …. Have most of our junior teams from cubs up including fleggg through to wests reserve grade train out of there .
I would have a symbolic kind of hallway that at the end of it leads out of the place that is unused unless someone is graduating to the top 30/ concord .
Or something like that . Like imagine you’re a 16 year old working out in the gym , then you hear a bell ring , some other kid who’s 18/19 hugging everyone , his family is there , then you watch him walk down the hallway with Wests tigers greats pictures and every player who has played for wests tigers written on the wall .
You would watch that and just aspire to walk down that hallway one day .
This is the type of stuff we need . You need to make the junior COE have a clear connection to the main COE .

But Gallagher didn’t say what Cavanagh was right about did he. No you just assumed.

No I didnt "assume". you are assuming. I know for a fact what Cavanagh accused regarding governance issues from Cavanaghs own mouth, even further, Cavanagh documented his allegations in an official complaint to ASIC which was duly ignored.

Gallagher and you are twisting in the wind trying to make it make sense but you are both now gotten to the point where Cavanaghs input into this process is the same as yours, mine, Gallaghers and 97.3% of the forum....bravo.....point made.

If Cavanagh had an opinion about Lee and Pascoe being arrogant and it is highlighted in this latest WT development wasn’t he right to some extent despite whether we all thought similar. The difference is all is Joe nobodies haven’t been in the same position as Cavanagh to make that evaluation first hand.

What position is that? Sacked from his unpaid position from an unrelated organisation? What position, relative to WT does Cavanagh hold? The bloke is a grifter of the highest order and shouldnt be spoken of in the context of these changes. many more much more deserving.

Oh Lordy.
Still missing the point im not in the business of trying to work out what Cavanagh accused whoever of. I’m mearly stating you assumed Gallagher meant something other then that he was talking about. And you’re continuing down this path of educating us all about how informed you are about the politics of the club.

put simply Cavanagh said Lee and Pascoe were arrogant.
Gallagher repeated that comment.
No one other than you are talking about what the original, offical complaint that Cavanagh put forward to whomever.
