HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

[Rock Hopper Steve]

If it blows up again they will lose the NRL licence, I thought PVL’s statement made that quite clear.

Where's the statement mate been busy, missed it.

Mate I’m terrible at digging things up, but I will try and find it.

I am not asking them to predict anything, they have supposedly agreed to come back.
To suggest they agreed to be reinstated to a board in which they will always be outvoted and have no say, is questioning their intelligence.

it proves they care for the club , and just maybe, be in the know of some back room machinations

it doesn't exist

Mods ,can we give The Chad his own channel ,please
He just gets in the way of what matters

I think you might be right.

Good luck with the rally all. Hope it goes as you expect.

Hopefully the new CEO is good.

He has potential.

Board members and Chairmen are being removed and added like it's the last round of a wooden spoon bowl and they're deciding on the 18th man of the Jersey Flegg game.

Was it an actual statement or a quote in an article.

If only being "good" was all it took to earn a position and hold onto it under the control of HBG.

It does, I think Ink posted it earlier in this thread

There's an article quoting him that he will personally call all members that asked for a refund. Says it's the right thing to do and any member can have access to him while he is CEO.

I think it was in SMH

I got an email from the Membership Group today that they'd be happy to organise a call if I wanted. They didn't specifically offer the CEO but it was a personalised reply to my complaint email from Monday this week.

They said if I wanted to speak to someone at Tigers to discuss my complaints about the recent activity, they'd arrange a call.

They must be preparing themselves to make a lot of calls.

He seems to think this is about placating balmain fans

Its not

Its just some BS to appeal to the geberal RL public that hes done something
Yes, getting the indies re-instated is a step, theres much more to do.
I think he thinks his job is done and this will be the last we hear from him.
The leaks will resume...the instability will increase

In defence of PVL though, he did speak to both HBG and the Independents. I will have to assume he has far more information about what happened than any fans do.

And therefore what short- or long-term compromise would be feasible.

But it's also not wrong to quash any of the Wests Magpies return talk - that stuff was everywhere including a significant amount of the start of this thread. He's come out and said it will never be permitted, so at least that's one angle of debate / consternation we can officially put to bed.

 

[jirskyr]

But we did leave it behind.

We have moved on to HBG Out & rallies & the end is nigh.

If a perfectly reasonable reason for the actions comes out tomorrow- will anyone even care now?

Why weren't more questions asked of HBG, Richo & even PVL now that he has stepped in?

You are all raging. But, you're raging in the dark.

There's always a contrarian, huh?

It's not enough to accept that many fans are upset.

All good read all them today when the forum was down.

I wish he would release a statement to Tigers supporters to tell us what he's done and what will be done if they step out of line again.

Would certainly settle a few arguments on here.

im not a member , but has anyone done homework on a class action

 

[hybrid_tiger]

Wow. Done pretty explosive allegations about HBG in that video.

Is it really that explosive? Anyone with half a brain can see that HBG care very little about Wests Tigers being successful and winning football games.

They have held a majority share in WT for over a decade. They literally do not care if Wests Tigers win games, only that they can watch Wests Magpies at Lidcombe Oval in NSW Cup.

I can only go on the history mate. It was obvious for a long time there were issues in the club so we sought a review.

That review conducted by very qualified people found that there were serious governance issues at the club and made a list of recommendations.

When those recommendations were mostly implemented, the ckub actually started to make measurable improvements across a wide variety of indicators for the first time in over a decade of failure.

The HBG who were found to be an issue in the review, then decided that they would blow that up and return to controlling the club.

Im really sorry but I'm not ok with that. These guys are not owners, they are custodians of our club and they have failed in that role.

I won't stand by and watch them continue to destroy the club.

It is not their club, it is our club.

Agree 100%.

There's only 1 thing that hasn't changed in the past 10 years for Tigers, in the search for answers and success - the owners. We've tried roster, home grounds, coaches, assistant coaches, logo, juniors, NSW Cup, Board members, CEOs, sponsors... all changed for little to no improvement.
