HBG takeover, Independent Directors Sacked

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…
 
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.
 
Didnt think you would reply....cant or wont...pretty cowardly
Thanks.for clarifying your position
Oh c'mon, he doesn't have to answer every question you put to him or me or anyone else for that matter, the way you think he should.
What are you going to do if he doesn't answer the next question the way you think he should, hold your breath till you go blue in the face😈.

Do you always talk on behalf of others?

Honestly, I think people don't really care anymore.

Seriously the vote at the time for Balmain was 92-4 from memory. It was only the "boxing Tiger" who really objected. Wests supporters saw the writing on the wall and understood their team needed to merge.

Not saying were not proud Magpies or proud Balmain supporters. The people are still there and that's still awesome. It's just time to move on and cheer for the Wests Tigers. There will be no demerger, if Wests Tigers is removed, both teams will be gone.

IF you want to ask a question, ask this one. Does anyone think the Perth Bears is really North Sydney Bears?
Seriously anyone. Their culture is gone, the team has been out for 20+ years and they will be lucky to get an ex Norths player involved (wait, that's probably Jason Taylor, ok Unlucky).

I’m not mate just trying to see things clearly. For the record I am pro Wests Tigers, I work with the club, my kids wear Wests Tigers jerseys & we have a platinum family membership. I’m just trying to see both sides.
Apologise if that is the case but it certainly seemed like you were leaning very much towards the HBG.
To most, I would think, it seems they are the ‘bad guys’.
 
So if they weren't taken to board level, why fire the board?
I assume that will be part of the PVL investigation.
If he finds that the board members dismissals were unjustified, I am confident he will take appropriate action and rightly so.
What happens if he finds the dismissals were justified?
There will be a lot of people with egg on their face if that is the outcome.
 
So you still think its a shame the Magpies won their court case and got re-admitted back in 1983 then? Are they still hapless small time boobs? Or have they improved in your eyes since Monday?
I still believe that Wests Magpies Ashfield/ HBG should have nothing to do with the running of the Wests Tigers. I would like to see them stripped of their license and or forced to sell. I still think that any and all HBG Directors who want to try and bring about the reintroduction of the Wests Magpies at the expense of the Wests Tigers should, as I have now done, get over themselves and move on. I strongly believe that the board of HBG are hapless, small-time boobs. So, yes.
 
you’re an idiot . I already replied to that nonsense once , and deleted the post because it broke forum rules.
But it’s well known on here my background. So I’ll say again.. WTF have you ever done to call me a leftist ? And id you don’t know , because you’re presumptuous moron , go research . Because I’ve got the scars that just makes me laugh at people like you.
And by the way , because you’re an illiterate idiot , who doesn’t actually understand what is being written bigger than 3 syllables. What I actually said in that post to Susie , was I don’t like to consume left media it does my head in .. But I know big words make little vicious feel small , soo little vicious no like big words, like al-go ripppim , aquendza . They make vicious head hurt big sores ….. I’m sorry you had to try to read something intelligent … but this isn’t the special needs class mate sometimes the adults need to speak .Ok big boy ?
Based on the fact I know a lot of people who played for the Ryde-Eastwood Hawks in the Metro Cup days, I have a rough idea who you are.
You carry on like an A-Grade Derek, just another blow in who knows nothing about traditional inner west working class values and that’s a large part of the problem, we now have the inner west full of leftist greenies.
