HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

[innsaneink]

I'm assuming they would as the article stated yesterday Vlandys was considering appointing an N.R.L administrator, if there were no grounds he wouldn't be able to consider it, I believe there were also breaches by HBG with the way the directors were stood down according to an article posted a few days ago, though I think the only ones who could pursue that would be the directors themselves in the courts which would be costly for a voluntary position which they prob wouldn't do. Who cares though, HBG do whatever they want when they want with their play thing, why bother with the rules. Do whatever needs to be done to get it done.

It seemed like a verybthorough article i think from The Australian by someone who seemed to know whatnhe was talking about...citing clubs sct clauses one of which appeared to state HBG needes NRL approval to dismiss independent board members.

I think thats what it inferred ...i asked the question and @Lestronge agreed with me...but we dont know if they got the reqd.apprival or not

I'm surprised you of all people, a health care worker in the mental health area, didn't step in and try to calm the heat being generated.
I assume you know that the anger being displayed is not good for a person's health.
I assume you know aggression and hate don't get any of us anywhere.
I assume you know that the control of aggression has to be an ongoing learning process for a lot of people.
I also assume that you know aggression doesn't work to bring about a peaceful and happy resolution that lasts.
And last, I assume you know it's gentle honest diplomacy that works best.

Take your dribble back under your bridge.

Sometimes the most obvious answer, is the correct answer.

They did not like not being in control of the club so they took back the power. They smeared Richo on the way out with a strategic leak to make their position stronger. They know they can act with impunity and they couldn't care less what fans think.

The reasons you gave are of their supposed vested personal interest, not their interest in the club.
I'm trying to do what Ted Lasso said; be curious, not judgmental.

I can't jump to the only conclusion that they're some sort of maniacal, sadistic group of people with an interest only in power. Surely their decision making must be rooted in a shared mission to drive success.
Surely.
No?

This whole saga can now either destroy the club for another decade or maybe for ever, or something good could rise from the ashes. Very hard to be optimistic and while HBG are making the decisions and the chances of this club having any success is zero.

The NRL’s intervention is our only chance, but that may be a legal minefield they may want to keep clear of

Mate, you do

“It’s written all over his avatar”
You do realise your conversing with a bloke who uses a Balmain fridge magnet for an avatar.
Too funny - oh the hypocrisy 🤣🤣🤣

I just like the retro emblem - I had that card when I was a kid. What's your problem?

I don't come on here whinging about not enough tigers on the sleeve or what have you. You're a disgrace.

Mate read the room and do yourself and everyone else a favour and just find your people somewhere else.

To make an all-encompassing statement like "pathetic human, along with the rest of the people supporting him" I have to assume you know them all personally.

Have no need. The man is an absolute coward and if his Instagram is anything to go by, an absolute perv too. Has destroyed the club and has not fronted the media once. He doesn't measure up against blokes like Shane and Barry and has to knife from the shadows.

Weak, pathetic tryhard he is.

Nothing on your double standards then 🤔

He has only shown any concern for Wests Tigers where you deep down still carry a torch for the Magpies, this a WT forum can you not see the double standard.

 

[Suzie-Q]

All of you who are out! At least hang on until Saturday

Don't penalise the football club. Don't bombard them with your emails. They have no control over this, and Wests Ashfield won't receive any of it.

I was born and bred magpie. I grew in Ashfield/Croydon. Went to school in Ashfield. Put a Magpie jersy on for our area code. BUT I'M A Wests Tiger. 2000 was my new club it hurt but not for long. I love the Tigers. I live in WA now and crave to watch them every week in season. I just feel lost what are these dumb F'S doing. Move and let us enjoy our club. No matter how bad we have been. PERTH BEARS ARE STARTING TO LOOK GREAT FOR ME. ONE MORE YEAR. SOUGHT IT OR I'M DONE. AND THAT KILLS ME TO SAY.

Darkest day as a life-long league supporter.

Shame.

Given the complexities of this mess I would be prepared to give V'Landys sufficient time to check the legalities before making a move. If he does nothing he's in strife, and if he does something and gets it wrong it goes even worse for him. The quicker the better for all parties involved though.

Keep hammering him with your feedback on this.

Anyone know if he has connection to HBG?

Anyone got it?

I’d love to fire off a few thoughts to those HBG flogs

I'm resigned to the fact if Velandys was going to do something Richo would have been all over it. Richo knew it was a lost cause and walked.😭

 

[hammertime]

I’m lost for words.

I know it’s already reported but I have it CONFIRMED that Richo is stepping down as CEO over this.

I don’t blame Richo for walking out, thank you for everything you’ve done for this club. You’ve given us a taste of success and stability during your short time giving us hope we’re capable.

I hope this is goodbye for now and not forever. If we can get HBG out under new management I’m sure he’ll be the first person called to finish the job he set out to do.

On the other side of things:

It’s become clear - this club will NEVER be successful until the HBG are out

The fact the NRL haven’t stepped in is equally as laughable, it’s clear they aren’t performance driven but more Wests driven.

I think this is the end for me, how can I give so much time/energy/money into a club run by people who continue to spit in us fans faces.

It’s all on you Benji… you’re our last hope.

#HBGOUT

Well said @teddy23

The problem is mate, do we want Benji to succeed now? We can't be in a position where, despite the idiocy from mgmt, Benji manages the unthinkable and gets us to new heights.

I don't know what I want more, success for Benji because I love the bloke (and the players who took a punt on us) or HBG to fail - unfortunately, my anger is so deep and long-dated, I have to say it's the latter. HBG can't be in a position, with any data point, to see that this was a good idea.

The only circut breaker now is if the club goes backwards at the rate of knots - since it doesn't look like PVL is stepping in.

 

[2041]

Can someone repost the contact email for the clowns? I'm emailing the club to cancel my membership and want to make sure to CC them.
