HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

Richo wasn't sacked, he resigned, so I would be really surprised to see him return.
HBG knew full well Richo wouldn't stay under a HBG run board. Richo said so him self sitting next to Julie Romero. If he felt HBG wernt going to follow through on the reviews finding of implementing the independant board members, he specifically stated he wouldn't have stuck around. HBG knew full well when they got rid of the board members Richo was gone as well. They knew exactly what they were doing and it was 100% intentional.
 
Yes. It was an ultimatum. Fix your governance or we'll fix it for you.

All this backflipping has been under the threat of force.
So, who is your source that told you that, and I'd like to know what context it was said in.
From what I have seen and heard the feeling wasn't nearly as bad as you are making out.
 
He did it because he wanted a single reserve grade side and they refused, so he stacked one of the sides. The "other side" would always have been justified to complain.

But Sheens was vindicated, we won the comp.
With 2 teams to choose players from, so he should have won the comp.
Do you think it was a good move on Sheens part to make the MAGPIES look like fools.
Then after that I can't imagine the Magpie board members agreeing for him to come back.

He decided it was better for team cohesion if all the reserve players were playing in the same team.
 
I noticed that.

Have become quite addicted to this discussion so I've read most of the pages on this topic and I've noticed it's dominated by that WestsTigers guy.

Also noticed abuse at not only alternative views but nuanced ones.
Don't let the d/h's on here intimidate you LT.
For a newby that's only been here such a short time, you're doing well.
 
Good points but what it all concludes for me is this debenture system has to some degree a 3rd Reich smell to it.

Sorry if this offends anyone.
We're really into a heavy dose of theatrics with this post, mentioning the 3rd Reich.
Strange that you apologise for offending anyone.
You obviously put it in here because you knew it would be offensive.
But no, you didn't offend me as I am becoming used to seeing this style of post from you.
 
You're only new & I don't know what you're angle is etc. Take everything on face value.

weststigers is not a bad poster on here. I've spoken to him & he's a cool guy as far as I'm concerned. There are a few others on here that have started using similar styles in this 'emotive topic'.

Don't blame the posters for the way this place responds. It's been allowed to happen.

"emotive topic" is a shield to use to allow some aggression to be let out. If you can deal with the consistency of 'education' you are given on here, it's generally a good place to be.
Sorry to disagree with a top poster such as yourself, but I happen to think there is more trash than treasure on here.

And I reckon it's a real pity that it has been "allowed to happen".

Most people that don't like something usually stop returning. Could that be an option for you?

Right. So despite doing really well on and off the field last year, you are only concerned with the make up of the board?

Is it fair to say that prior to last years independent board, the board had been HBG majority for 10 years presiding over the worst period in the clubs history?

Let's for a moment imagine the last 10 years was run under a Balmain majority. Would you be marching to the same tune as now?
I've got no correct answer to a hypothetical.
 
Yep and confirms the fighting has not stopped

Wish the nrl brought in the administrators
Look other then Batboy and some others.

Do we really still 'fight' about this in forum land?

I really feel Denis and about 8 old men are fighting. .. That's about it.


Sure a few people are bating here. I think most members are really passed this so called Balmain vs Magpies thing.
