HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

This feels like a real D-Day with the club , if Richo calls it quits and PVL washes their hands with a weak, let's see with these changes how it goes and we're watching. We are so screwed ...
I don’t trust PVL to do anything for us, tbh. I have no inside info, just a gut feeling that he would be ok with our club imploding. It would make it easier for him than having to make the decision to cull a Sydney team so he can spread the NRL to other areas in the future. He’s made it perfectly clear that expansion is his vision and you just can’t have a decent competition with too many more clubs. He would still probably have to cull another Sydney team as well, but he will have a bit more time to think about that if we’re not around anymore.
 
So what rat is that mate. I have asked @BZN many times, what he would like to see for better representation of the Magpies and he refuses to answer.

Ill ask you now, what is the rat you and he smell? If you are going to question our actions, at least be man enough to say what you think we are doing instead of hiding behind implied comments.
I am interpreting.
No implied comment intended

Conspiracy theories are the order of the day (not just in and around Wests Ts), and I can see where a rally being organized by a gaggle of old Tigers who are marching on the Wests Leagues Club (est. 1955) could throw up a few red flags to those who’ve been around longer than the six tackle rule.

Nothing personal, just perusing the optics
 
Regardless on who comes in to replace Richo… it doesn’t matter.

If we’re that incompetent as a club to allow this man to walk out given the platform he has started to build over here, we’re only just scraping the surface that’s the sad part.

If Richo announces he’s gone over this petty Wests vs Balmain agenda driven by the board - then it’s on us fans as the last avenue to save this club.

Save the date December 13th…. I’ll see you at the protest.

In Richardson's case, it may be more than a petty squabble.

Who are the old tigers? Do you not realise that most of Wests Tigers fans are simply that? Wests Tigers fans. Sometimes we say Wests, sometimes we say Tigers, sometimes we say the whole mouthful of Wests Tigers, sometimes we call them WT. You and others stuck in the Magpies v Balmain fight need to acknowledge that less people are from those factions than Wests Tigers fans, and actual Wests Tigers fans care about THIS team and ITS future, not teams that haven't been relevant in the NRL for almost 3 decades.

Jesus mate,, do you just not get it???? We do not give a flying **** about magpie or Balmain BS.. everyone is furious because after a review was conducted as too why the wests tigers were 15 years without making the 8 in a 16 team competition… mathematically equivalent to not winning a coin toss in 15 tries,, almost impossible mathematically without being caused by woeful incompetence ( deliberate sabotage in my view), recommendations were made and a chief executive was hired that signed on subject to the independent football board being installed … and now that the CEO has started to achieve successful results in the view of many WESTS TIGERS supporters the clowns that ran the show for the 15 terrible , ridiculous years have deliberately reneged on all the agreements and dismissed the board and then tried to smear and defame the ceo in order to further undermine him and his reputation in order to justify their disgusting, deceitful and duplicitous actions…WESTS TIGERS supporters feel betrayed by this, fans that want the JOINT VENTURE to succeed can see its obvious that their team is being nobbled and they are all SICK of it….the success and the future of the WESTS TIGERS is what most on here are all focussed on and passionate about…
Appreciate your post but others like him well you are simply wasting your time. They are here to muddy the waters and stop any momentum building to rally the troops.

Agreed, if Richo is forced to go then I’m gone too. He is the only shining light we’ve had in over a decade of despair and if he goes, we’re back to square one, imo. I, for one, am not willing to go back to square one to support this club anymore.

If the club doesn’t want to be successful and would rather continue wallowing in their own mess, they can do it without my support, clearly the fans aren’t being considered. I’m sure they won’t care or lose any sleep over losing one lifetime supporter, but I care. However, life is too short to choose to put up with this incompetent BS every bloody year.

Wasting your time just suspended his account. His intentions are not those of the greater wests tigers community

I was talking about the organisers of the rally.
People really need to read posts before automatically reverting to old tropes 🙄
 
Holman Barnes just blew up a functioning board and will now let our best CEO ever walk off into the sunset.

What on earth does that have to do with the measly 10% ownership of Balmain or some Balmain agenda? What are you hippies smoking? Your brain's fried mate.
Mate you're wasting your time trying to reason with him is like talking to a chicken you have no chance.
How can he be impartial he reeks of magpie it's written all over his avatar.
 
It’s definitely worth a try. For 2 years now I have refused to allow any of my money to flow toward the club, a boycott of sorts. I’ve been to only one game and that was an away game.
Good on you mate. 👌
Just imagine the ground swell when everyone wants their membership money back -and we boycott the games as well.!!
 
So effectively, we want - Wests to give Wests back to the fans of Wests ... 😏
Wests MacArthur would be the ideal replacement..

The bulk of us former Balmain tigers fans understand that this is a WESTS TIGERS MERGER!

Wests macarthur is our future..

TOo many magpies fans here are projecting their own insecurities
