@ said:@ said:@ said:@ said:All i can say is if you take the time to try and understand why the entire rugby league community are saying Ivans position is untenable you might also start to understand why Wests Tigers fans who have been through hell and back for the last few years have a massive problem with this.
This is not much different to the Jason taylor situation where most could see he didnt have what it takes to be an NRL coach but certain personality types were happy to keep the status quo and ride it out.
Its all semantics anyhow, Justin Pascoe and the board will not let Ivan run this club while his priorities are elsewhere. Just will not happen!
He is gone. its just a matter of the details.
There is a huge difference between JT and Ivan…Ivan has done a lot more in 12 months at this club than JT could do in 12 years...

If people are up in arms about what is happening and the rugby league community cant handle it,then they should follow another sport...this is the world of NRL as we know it,the big dollars have made a huge impact on our game and it will continue unless contractual agreements are made to be honoured by players and coaches alike....the contracts are the joke and how they are manipulated with get out clauses etc etc..

Also Patriot,if Ivan is here for the remainder of his contract and is fulfilling his obligations of his agreement,then why is his tenure untenable....he would have my support and I will pay my membership as well...I hope he coaches the team well,we surprised many teams last year and hopefully it continues next year under Ivans coaching...
My other final point on this would be " if we draw Penrith twice in the 2019 draw , do you have 100% confidence in Ivan Cleary "
We aren't a club that can afford to be dropping two games before they are even played …...
So the imagination starts to run wild…why would Ivan not coach our team to be the best they can,if they get beat fair and square,why wouldnt I have faith in Ivan...or are you saying that he would want our team to let Nathans team win...you know,silly penalties,dropped balls,forward passes and offside plays...fairdinkum some people should get in the real world..
Our tactics in the Penrith game this season were shocking , remember how much ball we had the 1st 20 minutes
Our set up was good , our tactics in the final 10 metres were completely wrong ….................... just saying
