Breaking news: HBG takeover

[coivtny]

Nice dodge, You replied to a comment that said both jerseys were sold out with allegedly…

Insinuating the jerseys hadn’t sold out?

No dodge dickhead. I commented allegedly twice. Both times the comment related to the colour of the jersey being a catalyst. I couldn’t care less whether the jersey sold out or not.

I followed his various interactions with you and others closely. I don’t agree. Nobody with any regard for the future of WT would see a shred of positivity in this. His major issue was, in my opinion, his perception of disrespect for the history and legacy of the Magpies.

If you followed closely and dont agree then you are daft

It was trolling, pure and simple....with personal attacks to Cochise attached

It like me when I owned a Commodore going into a Ford forum and complaining theres no respect for Holdens...stupid and trolling

I’m far from daft, I can assure you. I don’t agree with your take on it but that’s OK. But why don’t you try a response that doesn’t include a personal attack i.e the daft remark. It diminishes you.
My personal attacks are always reserved for returns of serve but I’ll spare you this time.

you’re an absolute clown with zero idea

Hopefully when the under 16 social media ban comes into place, we’ll get some peace from your drivel

You ae right. They never ceded control, they appointed a board that could make decsions withing certain parameters. What the parameter were we will never know; however, it is likely that the independence allowed a decision that the "grown ups" weren't happy with.

If the jersey colour is a "real" issue, I have no doubt that they were aware of the direction the board was taking through the two members it maintaibs on the board. I can only imagine that the West Stigesr board did some market research and came up with the designs that were chosen. I expect that the Wests representatives were upset but didn't have the numbers to change the direction of the Wests Tigers Board.

Instead of using the power of veto I expect that rope was given that allowed the Wests Tigers Board to hang itself by "failing to engage appropriately" with the HBG board.

There were clearly other options that could have been taken other than ousting the independents on a Friday evening; but masking its takeover as coprporate blunder on behalf of the Wests Tiger's board clearly suits the aganda they have.

If our breaking point at board level is jersey colour then it’s no surprise we look like a f$&king train wreck on the field. The fish rots from the head. Take Dennis’ crayons off him FFS.

Trust you to come out and say something stupid at a time like this, you just can't miss an opportunity to plant the knife into Benji's back.

Off season amnesia is in full swing

I agree with you. There’s got to be more to this. The suggestion of the stadium policy being an issue makes more sense to me. I expect it will all come out in time.

Hmmm, stadiums policy????? There is a long standing trap there for Richardson. Geez, 2 x decrepit stadiums, limited $$$ and no great options. We don't get much federal / state grants compared to others.

What do you think the issue is with the stadium policy?

 

[magpies forever]

Wests Magpies have to somehow get rid of the debenture share holder system. It's wrecking things- past, present and future.

You couldn't write a satire with a story line like this. I trust there is much more depth to the issue. Unfortunately, it is probably closes to the mark.

Who are you to talk? You’ve done a good job of sticking the boot in yourself so far in this thread.

If Dennis was the only problem he would be gone. They keep saying things to keep the fans onboard but their actions show that they are not on the same page as a large portion the supporter group - while the anti merger group are actively cheering.

Why don't you just give most of a break and stop following the tigers champ, you never have anything good to say about your team you so called support.

Question for all - is this the first we have heard of the “owners veto” … or was that always a thing?

 

[Lestronge]

I also notice in the article , that the new HBG CEO is to be appointed to the board …. My guess is they thought they were appointing stooges to the tigers board …mouth pieces for HBG , and that hasn’t happened .
