Breaking news: HBG takeover

PVL will find out the truth and take appropriate action.
I find it hard to believe Daniel Paton would make the statements he did yesterday if he knew it would come out that he has told blatant lies.
Why would you care what Paton and his clowns at HBG say V, right or wrong they have been a thorn in the side for too long we need to cut the cord somehow to go forward and improve.
 
WWWWEEEEEEE!!!

This thread is a fun one.

In regards to this stupid colour thing I asked Googs AI what colour would a tiger and a magpie would morph into.

A hypothetical creature resulting from a tiger and a magpie morph would likely have a striking, contrasting coloration featuring bold patches of black and white, and orange stripes or accents.
The colouring is derived from the distinct plumage of the magpie and the fur of the tiger:
Magpies typically exhibit a stark, iridescent black and white plumage pattern.
Tigers are known for their vibrant orange or reddish-brown base colour and prominent black stripes.
The resulting morphed creature would be a hypothetical blend, combining these elements into a unique black, white, and orange striped pattern.
Apparently if you mix all three colours you get brown... how very appropriate
 
Speaking from the Magpies point of view I totally support the anger being shown towards the HBG cronies and their decision to sack the independent board members

What I did find harsh were Forum members saying they wouldn't use a Victa Jersey to wipe their ass with

If the shoe was on the other foot and someone said they wouldn't wipe their ass with a Philips Balmain Jersey chaos would ensue
Those 1980’s jerseys were a heavy cotton material, you’d find the texture not conducive to an effective arse wipe. You may require multiple jerseys in fact. I think that comment was meant to be taken in that context. 😉
 
It’s logic ….wtf is wrong with you ? What is happening right now …
No factual information has been confirmed, just guessing and innuendo.
If you want tj believe something is factual before being confirmed as factual that’s up to you.
Have you ever heard of innocent until proven guilty?

Yeah, I agree. I’m an old Magpie who couldn’t give two shits about HBG. But there is definitely an element of posters who are using this just to grind an ax at the Magpies and ex Magpies supporters in general. Like claims that there are Magpies supporters celebrating this. Total bullshit. Maybe the fanatics, or a couple dinosaurs calling 2SM. But no one here.

No, no. I meant I wouldn’t subject my turds or rear end to a Magpies jersey.

Talk about thick! It doesnt ring true because it doesnt make sense. There are two (2) HBG reps on the WT board. They should be quite capable of communicating WT decisions to the HBG. Get it?
It’s been explained many times that they supposedly were not consulted.
You are the thick one that refuses to consider that could be true.
 
If you bothered to listen to the Daniek Paton interview it explains it all in plain English.
You can either consider what he is saying could be true, or dismiss it as a blatant lie, that’s up to you.
I did listen. I listened so intently , that I realised an employee of HBG was saying there was a lack of communication which lead to 4 independent directors ( who have no responsibility whatsoever to relay information to an employee of HBG ) losing their job .
If Patton wants to know shit about the wests tigers board for the 100th time , he needs to go to his elected representative in one DENNIS BURGESS.
Patton … runs the pokies and day to day of the leagues club … he is not a delegate of the wests tigers board . HES NOT EVEN A DELEGATE of his own board ! What is hard to understand here ….
 
I don't care I'm a magpie and have supported the pies since when I met Tommy in 1974 when I was a ballboy at Lalor Park. My dad knew him but dad was from the Balmain side having been on the piss with George Piper before he went to Penrith, they used to work at Dunlops with Peter Dimond who they said had the body of a Greek god.
 
So then you’re calling Barry a liar then who was more open and direct than Daniel?
No - I am not saying either of them are lying at this stage as we do not have enough evidence to know the truth.
That’s the issue, so many people jumping to conclusions without having the factual evidence that will evteveal the truth.
 
By sacking the independents they have dismissed the findings of their own commissioned external review. The current leadership of HBG is on a completely different page to the former members who are virtually now all now sacked.
The messages they send out can be taken with a grain of salt. This organization is made up of people with personal agendas that are not aligned with a large percentage of the supporter group while stirring up those who hang on to hope of days long gone - and we are at the mercy of the constant division that they create.
 
It’s been explained many times that they supposedly were not consulted.
You are the thick one that refuses to consider that could be true.
Ok now we are getting somewhere. How could they not have been consulted when two HBG reps were board members? Not only were they consulted, as WT board members, but were actively involved in the decisions themselves.

That’s some Bill Clinton Bullshit right there . Gets caught get blowjobs under the desk … “I did not have sexual relations with that woman “ yea ok mate.
if you won’t even admit the most obvious of truths then like I said your a bad faith agent . Literally one of the top 5 worse attributes I think someone can have . Well done .
 
Barry was very direct so either he &/or Paton is a liar.

My bigger concern is that Richo is very quiet (which he normally isn’t) & PVL statement where he mentions politics intentionally is not a good sign for HBG this time round.
Very blunt statements from Barry.

He is a political operator and he knows that people who keep quiet get rehired, people who don't, dont.

But this seems to be him giving a fight. Heck it's Barry O'Farrell, he doesn't have to have a board position and can retire comfortably (doubt he even needs the generous state pension).

Man we need to sort this out Civilly:

I couldn’t care less if they were turfed out tomorrow.
All I am saying is the Daniel Paton statement gives a clear reason as tj why the independent board members were removed, but very few want to consider what he stated could be true.
Surely most of us have been around long enough to know there are always two sides to a story and not everything written in the media is true.
 
Where's all this Richo is imperfect revisionist history coming from? Yes, many other people will apply for the job if he leaves but that doesn't mean that most of them will be any good or hold a candle to him. Seriously, people make it sound like running a football club is a walk in the park, and this club is another beast altogether.
