HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

[GNR4LIFE]

I know some people are a little worried about Jarome's exit clauses in amongst all of this, but rest assured that Alex Seyfarth does not have any and will be here for another 3 seasons. Huzzah!

And Twal for at least two. These days are yours and mine.

Happy days are here again, I feel better now.

Didn’t think Charlie owns Pepper Money?

Apologies to Charlie and all. I had been drinking. Charlie was with Pitcher Partners for many very successful years and I got my Pepper and Pitcher confused.

If they have an agenda to 86 the orange, why wouldn’t they do it themselves instead of leaving it to their subordinates and then sacking them when they didn’t kowtow?

Exactly GNR...you've been doing some excellent posts by the way.
You youngsters with your modern language...I thought 86 must have been a typo but I thought I should check my co-pilot before I abused you for it.

I have 4 sons aged 50, 39, 38 and 36. They all remember Wests quite well. I told them all "don't follow Wests because they'll break your heart". The oldest follows WT but he's more a rugby man, the next guy is Souths, the next guy is Broncos but lives in WA and will follow the new Bears team and the youngest is a WT tragic like me.

Hi dad, it's me..

You’re literally saying the exact opposite to what he’s saying … how did you join those dots in your head ?
The issue isn’t competence . The issue is “best interest of wests tigers “ and how can anyone and I mean anyone , whether you’re 55 or 40 or 90 or 70 , say they are doing what’s best for wests tigers if their allegiance is to one of the foundation clubs . Anyone who’s heard Dennis speak for example everything is wests or magpies .. it’s written all over his head where his allegiance is.
That is the issue . And the older you are , when you’re talking percentages of life the more likely your core allegiance is not to wests tigers . If you’re 75 and you’ve been following the same team since you were 5 , that means 2 thirds of your life you’ve been a magpies fan . So understandably that’s where your heart lies .
If you’re 40 , that means 55–60% of your life you’ve been a wests tigers fan. If you’re 50 it’s half your life .
Thats what the issue is. And if you want to claim agism as a thing , it’s not because you’re old . It’s because your age means your loyalty is elsewhere.
There’s millions of studies that dictate how and where and why and length of time it takes to form an allegiance .
We need people who are loyal to wests tigers and only wests tigers .

Im 78 and hsve loved the Magpirs since i was 10 but my alegisnce is to the Weststigers tell Burgess to bugger off i say.

Awesome mate … like I said I was merely stating a generalisation. If it’s not accurate ..: then that’s awesome . It’s more power to you and you as a person. It wasn’t agism .. more a calling for a change of guard . Some new voices in the room…

Does any club run a debenture system?

Let's expand that out... Does any club run a $100, transferable debenture with no accountability, that gives a select unqualified group ultimate power over a non profit.

This isn’t a supporter movement so Age and even if someone supports or has supported the Magpies is irrelevant in my view.

I think we as fans need to be conscious that this is a delicate topic for all of us and Magpies fans regardless of frustrations they are an important part of our club, history and DNA - & a fair few feel the same way as the rest of us.

It’s the management that is yet again creating the major disruption that is causing the past being brought into the future when it’s just not needed.

We need to deflect all our focus on the management / owners not at our fellow supporters.

I applaude your caution around the sensitivities, but anyone who remembers eiither foundation club has had the same amount of time to adjust. Management and fans included. 25 years is a long time to hold a grudge. Not long enough it seems for some.

You know for a fact that the important decisions that DP alluded to were taken to board level ?
It sounded very much like he was insinuating they were not taken to board level and that is the issue.

So if they weren't taken to board level, why fire the board?
