CEO - Shane Richardson

Not bothered by this at all. How some tiny unknown brand suddenly got their ugly logo on the back AND both sleeves of our jerseys is already a bit disappointing. Seems like Pascoe did this guy a deal off the books and suddenly that deal is off.

This guy was arrested (i think) for fraud in Lismore about 10 years ago, along with 3 others. They had some dodgy scheme going. This company sounds like the next 'Radisson Maine' or 'Herbal World', some dodgy little company setup in someone's garage.

If we can get a bigger and more well known sponsor on board, for more money, and even split the back and each sleeve and sell them all separately rather than bundling them in a deal, then we'll be far better off financially.

Richo knows the business of footy clubs. Pascoe was a wannabe. I'm happy for Richo to have free reign more or less to turn the club around, there's a lot of work to do and will be a few casualties along the way. If Fabri is one so be it.

Allied would be the perfect third-tier and eventually first tier Tigers sponsor - digital, social, and content. FAB should have stayed on as our supporting jersey and shorts sponsor.

Richo has mucked this up.
 
A proper fan or supporter would not be airing their grievances to the old Buzzard.

I tend to think that Richo's side of the story is believable and that Fabri is siding with the old regime and looking for an excuse to get out and is trying to discredit the current management in the process.

I thought that FAB were only sleeve sponsors and was surprised about the mention of back of jersey sponsorship unless that was part of some future sponsorship deal that has not yet started up.

Right on..we've got it sorted man. FAB can kick rocks
 
And should Allied already expressing interest in being back on the jersey, I'd say that the spaces left blank by FAB will be replaced very quickly. If not fully by them, but by someone else, Richo has business ties, and having a new group in charge with the signs of a potential bright future (even with the recent 2 spoons) I think a fair few companies will be willing to step in to put their names on the jersey (be it this year, or next, when the big one almost certainly becomes available).

Well the sleeves are covered with the membership promo for now, but Allied are on the lower back. So we lose a sleeve sponsor, but gain the lower back which (should) be worth more money overall. A win overall I'd say.
 
A couple of big appointments so far under the Richo regime that have popped up in the media are Peter Lang as Chief Commercial Officer (formerly Austereo sales manager having worked closely there with the NRL) & Shaun Mielekamp as General Manager of Community, Foundation & Affiliates (former CEO of Central Coast Mariners).
