Breaking news: HBG takeover

[Tom Shines]

these things rarely move quickly. the march may compel them into taking action quicker though.

Ok,,, I’m not so sure ..I’ll have to wait and see ,,,they have the same issue with HBG itself who actually run licensed clubs … if they allow that to operate ,then why worry about a football team ?

I am not the one making abusive comments in relation to something with no relevance to the post you replied to.
Read things properly and think before you speak.

Thats rich
GO back and read 20 pages of your bullshit dribble where you don't directly answer questions and keep repeating the same statement like a politician

It’s a B from me.

The “as it is” tag at the end of option B would seem problematic.

We’ve been living through “as it is” for a few decades now, and everyone here seems most unhappy with how it’s been going 🤣

We’re on a football forum talking and disagreeing about how said football club is run. Bit dramatic to label it as a war.

It's a war

The future of the club depends on what happens next

Name calling is usually a sign that you know your argument is weak.

You called me homophobic when I made reference to a male/female relationship with the term "loverboy"... You never apologised.

As les Pattison once said.. "may your balls turn bi-cycle wheels and backpedal up your ass"...

I can tell.you the players do not care about this stuff, providing they get assurances from the people they report to which is Benji and Richo.

You can tell me? Are you talking to players in the current squad right now about what's happening?

If either of Benji or Richo depart then yes it will likely cause disruptions to our playing roster.
Unless that happens you are basing all your anger on your own speculation.

Oh so you're up to date with all the news on the HBG side but are ignoring speculation that Richo might walk?

You think the players turned up today thinking all is Rosey?

Climb out of your hole.

Remember true champions do not look for excuses.

go tell your mates at HBG... They looked for excuses and punted the guys who got us back on track as a club

A 5 year old in kindergarten would understand if there is different reasoning coming from the HBG spokesperson as to what is being quoted by the removed board members and a different reasoning coming from the media, but no concrete evidence about who is right, who is wrong, who is doing the wrong thing and/or being untruthful, it is reasonable for some people to want to wait for the concrete evidence before jumping tj conclusions.
I really don’t know what that is so hard to understand ?

Put him on the board, absolute club legend.

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.

💯correct GNR. There has not been one poster cheering this.

because compared to football clubs, leagues clubs are easy to run.

stack it with poker machines, ensure the food's half decent, throw at least four beers and three house wines on the taps and in the fridges, incentivise people with some promotions and live activations to come thru the doors and sure enough you've got a self-sustainable entity.

Liquor and Gaming are responsible for ensuring all clubs (sporting or otherwise) adhere to the Clubs Act. if HBG were found to be in breach of the Act, then they're in hot water.

Calling someone an idiot is a personal attack. Accusing someone of being homophobic is addressing a specific behaviour or statement. They are not the same.

A 5 year old would probably also understand that if HBG had 2 representatives on the Wests tigers board - that there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY THAT DECISIONS WERE MADE WITHOUT THEM BEING THERE... That the fault sits with the representives from the HBG for not passing on messages...

I really don't know why it is so hard to understand?

They’ll be rapt if like the good ole days of Pratten Park, everyone plays hard before going back to the Leagues Club to spend big on beer and the pokies 👍

You were wrong and misundefstood the reference yet never apologised.

And he is an idiot.. let's not pretend the world doesn't have idiots

Those same people you are now defending RHS are out of touch with reality and cannot handle the truth.
I thought you were smarter than to defend complete utter imbeciles.

Don't drag me into your battle mate, my comment was directed across the whole forum not the peeps you are arguing with.

Hot heads followed by rude comments get the best of all of us at one time or another and funnily enough the worst comes out around Wests/Balmain/HBG induced headaches.

I don't care if HBG is right or wrong with this latest shit show, they are the source of all the trouble getting stirred up and I want them silenced or if possible, sent to the firing squad.

It's just the worst timing that they could bring this crap up right in the middle of important player negotiations, it shows they don't give a F about the team only about their pathetic selves, they could have waited till after the contracts were settled.

Liquor & Gaming have put HBG on notice. Copying the article now.

Christ's sake! They weren't in-charge of shit!

Wrong. Without Justin we wouldn't have a barber at the club HQ. And Lee was in charge of leaking information.
