It's because our own podcast is a more controlled format than radio. His answers may not be completely scripted but he is able to know exactly what is coming and think hard about how he should answer them. Some of the questions he did answer with a scripted response but some he just spoke normally.
He has to have a say in recruitment and retention, he is the CEO.
Think it’s time for him to give the fedora away and wear a Tiger cap !
I used to know a Greek family who had the fish and chip shop almost opposite the Victoria Road/Monash Rd Gladesville intersection, on the same side as the Sawdust Hotel.
They were the good old days before American burger chains invaded us.
Absolutely H, and that shop used to do old fashioned “greasy joes” burgers as well . Great.
This is absolutely right. The last thing a club should do is put recruitment exclusively in the hands of the "football men". They almost always overrate old players and players they've worked with before, and they only think about the short term (because they don't expect to be around for long). It's how you end up in the cap hell the Dogs were in a couple of years back: overloaded with horrific back-ended deals given out by Des Hasler because he thought they were close to being premiers. You don't let the money men make decisions on talent but you absolutely have to have them there to say when something is financial suicide.
We used to line up at the fish shop and order, pay, and take a number and then join the queue.
It’s one of my biggest gripes with him.
