HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

I don't know Suzie from a bar of soap.. but you have attacked someone who helps keep this forum running; I assume without any pay... She is entitled to her opinion as much as the next person, moderator or not.
There's a huge difference between attacking someone and criticizing them.
Criticizing is OK yeah? Stepping outside the groupthink, that's permitted, isnt it?

This is footy mate.
In the grand scheme of things, it matters little.
I'm not going to attack anyone on a footy club forum.
But I will point out obvious agendas. Especially when they're being propagated by an admin

PS - Nice use of the Bold key

Ok, so why aren't you holding people to account when they have obvious agendas in relation to the HBG?


Thanks. I learnt it from your mate.
Firstly, there are no admins with a pro-HBG agenda.
And secondly, the vast majority of posters on the forum bleat loudly from within the anti HBG holding pen. I've never been one to ride the wave of zealotry. To hear an alternate view, while perceived as threatening by some of the more fragile among us, is good for the soul.
 
Plenty on here have been talking about "going back" to a Wests Ts NSW Cup team - which was what my answer was addressing.

And yes, I'll have a crack at the unhinged, bigots who seem to think that anything associated with wearing black & white is akin to supporting the Stasi.

Get a grip people - Its Christmas time ... Joy to the World etc etc
Thank God for the likes of the HBG who have made my Christmas such a joyous occasion.

NO NO NO MERRY CHRISTMAS!
 
Considering we
won 9 games.
New squad
Galvin leaves with drama mid-season
1st year of board/richo working together
Campbelltown/Leichhardt funding deals done

Previous years wins
6, 4, 4

If that's negligible, then OK 👍
The difference between a "Wests Tigers" reserve grade team (2013-2016)
& a Western Suburbs Reserve Grade (2017 on) team has been negligible.

I always find its good to match your response to the topic of the post your responding to.

OK👍

How does having an opinion on HBG make it an agenda? Why does it matter if she's admin? Can admins not have an opinion?

Do you hold the Wests Magpie forum leaders to the same account? Paul Stamo is one of the most toxic voices within the Wests tigers fan group and is consistently driving division amongst Wests tigers fans.

I'm very open to alternative views, I have been trying to get into a discussion with peoplle like yourself since this kicked off..

The thing is, it isn't a discussion when one side refuses to answer completely reasonable questions..

So why won't you lot engage in an open and fair discussion if it's so good for the souL? You just prefer to point fingers and argue than to address the serious questions.

Great posts B2T.
I hope I haven't started something where every 🤡 uses the BOLD key for every 2nd word.


Theres only one 🤡 on here allowed to do that.

Same could be said about you. I was talking about the NRL team because that is all that matters.

This reserve grade side show just distracts from that, but I don't think anyone made the argument that a WT reserve grade side would get better results based on a name change.

It's a history vs brand alignment argument they are making, but you've shifted the framing to results to make a point that it has no impact therefore should be Magpies.

Everyone has opinions. But there's a huge difference between an admin having an opinion and an admin having an agenda.

I have nothing to do with any Wests Magpie forum.

I don't know Paul Stamo.

Not sure who my lot are supposed to be - I'm my own man - a veritable army of one 🤣

Well you've changed your tune.
You used to be all about results, & judging a blokes worth on how many first grade games he'd played ...

Brand alignment ???
What toss.
Weasel word jibberish.
How does that impact anything - except make one of two OCD sufferers feel less anxious ?

Where does an opinion finsh and an agenda begin?
Yeah, fair point.

I guess agendas become more apparent when one disagrees with the case being so relentlessly prosecuted.

Suzie’s comments, and more obviously what she chooses to like or doesn't like are pretty stark indicators. The other admins don't suffer from this IMHO

For god's sake. So sad that I'm living rent free in your head. Have you been outside? Gone for a walk? I'm starting to worry about you. Especially after the tragic news I received today, right on Xmas.

My team is Wests Tigers. I couldn't give a toss about balmain or magpies. Seriously. The best thing to happen for my team was the appointment of Shane Richardson and the independent chair and board, as evidenced by the success on and off the field in 2025.

I am asking that you stop nitpicking my posts. It's quite stalker-ish. If you have a legitimate problem with my actions on this forum, I request that you approach @Kul directly, and he will address your concerns. If I constantly called out your posts, the way you do to me, you might have something to go on. If Kul doesn't give you the answers you want, try any of the other moderators. I'm sure they'll address your concerns.

I may be an admin, however, I am a fan first and foremost, and am entitled to like or dislike however I like. As are you.

They probably only go outside when they hear the warble of a magpie.

Free speech FFS, pity we can't complain to Kull about them and their magpies preaching on a Wests Tigers forum trouble is poor old Kull would be busy for a week trying to read it all.

Guys can we please rein in the snarky attitudes?
There is nothing gained by it and if anything it just adds to hostility. If you feel the need to post negativity maybe just log out & walk away until it passes. Christmas is a tough time for a lot of folks & some people are dealing with some very heavy stuff at the moment. By all means talk about football but please lose the us vs them mentality & the name calling & mocking tones. Time to stop focusing on the past & talking in circles. Please be respectful as we move forward to a new year.
