2019 Coaching saga -Thread

[newtiger]

Wait a second I don't think anyone disagrees Ivan is the one who caused all this has no integrity left and will go down as the most despised Coach in our history…

Yet part of the strategy to keep him was an extension offered not yet deserved and that's good Management.. extraordinary lenghts indeed..

Maybe it was a strategy to flush him out rather than to keep him…

It would have been funny if Ivan had signed for a other year or too,

The fact they only started seeking a replacement in October hints at reactive I believe..

If it was a perceived issue earlier and they believed it was an issue the process for a replacement should have started much much earlier…

So your calling out Pascoe again? Or is it a joke? Just so we are clear.

Wow I have already said Management have got the best possible outcome from this mess..

Doesnt mean Pascoe is the best administrator that ever lived which is being made out by some..and yes I have met and talked with him ..he himself is always looking to do better…

Honestly give it a rest fellas.

It’s all over, there’s a new coach stop crapping on about who’s theory makes more sense than someone else’s.

We’ve got Madge and that’s not a bad outcome.
Get on with supporting the Tiges and stop the rubbish.

Yep agree. Time for all of us to pick up our knitting needles again.
This is done and dusted and we got best possible result under circumstances.

Jesus Christ the amount of validation certain people need by strangers on the internet is a worry.

Who cares what was said by the club at the time. They've managed to trade up on a no win situation. The club will move on shortly, and hopefully everyone moves on with them.

I have a couple of new names some of you guys might like to use

So "Ivan Cleary" changed his name to "Madge"

Now who wants "Bit ching
And
Who wants "Moaning"

With out searching back 30 odd pages have we officially named Maguire as our coach for 2019, nothing on the West Tigers site.

Bit like being told how to support your team by strangers is a worry …...

Just my opinion

Wise words…I believe it when I see it on WTs.com

X2\. The coaching merry go round is just a mirage. It isn’t really happening lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol

Not enough lols.

I don't know if you ever understood in this thread that the point some people were making was not that there wasn't coaching changes on the horizon, rather that there isn't much point getting up in arms about it until something official was stated.

That's technically still true, although multiple media sources giving the same news 99% of the time means it's legitimate. That occurred for the first time just this afternoon.

I didn’t think we needed people’s permisison to “get up in arms” over the obvious situation that was unfolding. Thank you though for clarifying that for me. So today the speculation is legitimate , but previously when almost every organisation was running with Cleary wants out, madge or Bennett coming here, Seibold to souths…etc.. it was a problem for some. Makes alot of sense, thanks again for explaining when it’s okay to believe the speculation and when it isn’t.

I don't know if "not getting it" is your profession, you are that good at it.

I didn't say permission, you don't need my permission to do anything, I said it's pointless. I believe it's pointless getting too excited about all the different theories, and let's be honest there's been one thousand different claims about this topic in the last 3 months. When there's so much misinformation, you are better off waiting for something official.

However when 99% of the media outlets align and EVERY journo is saying Tigers-Madge-Penrith-Cleary deal is almost done Thurs-Fri-Sat, then you can start to consider that it is likely to be true. Not official, but probable.

Same thing happened with Nathan Cleary's signature, there was all this crap, then NRL.com, SMH, Telecrap all started running the same story that a deal had been done - at that time you can assume the consensus means it has indeed been done.

Had a giggle at that earlier.

 

[Tiger2135]

Was it ever official that Ivan signed for Penrith for 2021 and beyond??

Yes I agree with this. Offering him an extension to test his motives.
Why couldn’t we just sit him down and talk to him straight, ‘look I know you want to go.
Is it imperative it’s right now or do you want to see out what you’ve started.
I’m happy to meet in the middle and let’s walk away with our reputation and dignity in check and call 2019 the final hurrah?’

That not the story you were pedaling before
Keep changing and you might a story that fits , what reference do you have for the new story,
Funny that you didn’t mention this new, story when we were talking about the meeting between Ivan and Go and Pascoe,
I’ve never heard the long and strangely unheard version that you’re pedalling now, you haven’t been celebrating too much , have you :roll

What story was i peddaling before this one? Do enlighten us oh wise one lol.

And I have plenty of sauces for my above story.

Aaarrrhh sources, I don’t have sauces , I find that there’s been so many sources bandied around,
Quotes are the only thing that I take notice of around here any more. (Especially with some people)
Who said what in a direct quote, such as the statement made by Go And our esteemed leader regarding Ivan not asking for a release.

And the ones from Gold Bar Benny, saying that He’ll‘ be back at the Broncos in 2019

Yep he’d run out of gas :smiley:
.

Hmm, glass houses and all that; Did you mean to infer that he was riding a bicycle when he was "pedalling" an unheard of version?
