JV or Wests Tigers

Avoiding the inevitable is what's held this club( Wests Tigers) back.Moving forward with 2 drivers going in opposite directions was always going to cause a crash.BANG it's here.

If Wests take over the running of the club than so be it.

However if Balmain don't have a say in how the club is run than the 'Tigers' goes with them.

Its a very large part of what makes the Wests Tigers and it came from the Balmain Tigers!

Call me a dinosaur buts its a fact and should never be forgotten.

Let Wests see how they go without the 'Tigers'. That brand comes with a cost and that cost is a say in how the clubs run!

someone is in for a rude shock methinks.

If Balmain did go (and I doubt it) it would be interesting to see if they could legally take back their part in the entity.
**If Wests were left with rebooting as the Magpies they would be the ones in for a rude shock (supporter wise), methinks**.

Ffs get over it, its not happening.

Some peoples paranoia just over takes their logic.

NRL hand out the licences…theyre not bring magpies back and wiping 15 years of Wests Tigers.....but that doesnt make for a good victim mentality sob story

You have a good way and trying to twist things to suit yourself, ink.
It's pretty obvious that now that Balmain has hit some tough times there are plenty from the Wests side of the divide hoping to get rid of the 'Tigers' in WestsTigers.
Regards a victim mentality, all I've heard for 15 years is how there's too much talk about Balmain, we still get called Balmain sometimes, there's not enough white in the jersey and the perennial… the magpie is too small.
There's your victim mentality - now turned like a blowtorch towards its perceived tormentor.
 
Im not twisting anything

Youre the one coming up with hypotheticals painting Wests as taking over the WTs

I know youre upset but lets leave the fantasy conspiracies out eh, & try and keep it real.

LOL…"turned like a blowtorch" ...just needs the dramatic music accompanying that.

Your right in what your saying re Wests fans preaching victim mentality.But what is equally correct is Balmain fans accusing Wests fans of victim mentality when the truth was somewhere in between(as in most cases in life).The funny thing is you both have swapped places but the truth remains exactly where it always has(somewhere in between).Only now ck has the victim mentality and Ink is gee enough enough already you victim mentality whinger.If we all take off our pro Balmain or pro Wests glasses we will see the Irony of the situation here.To use a Tv show as a type of parody(With an unpaid 2 million dollar debt)After 15 years all of a sudden overnight Kramer(Balmain/CK) have become George Costanza(Wests/Ink) and George Costanza has become Kramer.Only problem the truth(Jerry Seinfeld) lies in neither the truth lies at the feet of Jerry Seinfeld(New 3 person independent majority board.)Seriously CK(kramer) and Ink(george) you both over the years on this forum have a great history of great Pro WESTS TIGERS comments on this forum you two are too good to get caught up with bickering amongst each other with this crap.Let it go boys but gee it is funny to watch. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Well a fellow forumer posted on another thread with inside knowledge that with the nrl on board now that there will be a big push for the team to be more western Sydney centric and that they will take the hit with crowd numbers etc. Make of that what you will but if Roy Masters is publishing stories along the same lines then that's where we're heading. (I know he is old wests so he would know something we wouldn't or he could be pushing his barrow)
 
The old 'Wests' was Ashfield. It hasn't been 'west' in anyone's definition for 30+years.

If we move further west from our heart land (Balmain and Ashfield) it will impact dinosaurs from both camps.

We can all see that the club long term needs to have a more Western syd focus. The trick will be keeping both nurseries.

So let me get this straight. The Magpies are the villains in all of this, and its their fault that Balmain are on the verge of extinction? haha, now just imagine if the shoe was on the other foot for a moment, and it was the Magpies who were on the verge of extinction and the old Magpies were blaming Balmain for it, could you imagine the replies? Magpie fans have had the stigma of being whingers pretty much since the JV was established, it seems now the tables are starting to turn. Man up and take some responsibility for your clubs plight, instead of trying to blame everyone else.

Will you at least answer two questions?

Do you acknowledge balmain covered wests (financially) in the first 3 yrs of the WT.

Do you want yo see balmain remain viable?

For the record balmain did give the JV extra money to assists WM in the first 3 yrs and thats in my opinion what should have occured considering we merged to save each other from extinction. Wests have recoverd well abd balmain have stuffed up and Its a shame that some fail to acknowledge this

Secondly glad to hear you would love to see balmain survive because although we enjoy a battle on this forum i can assure you i would never want to see Wests or any remaining sydney club become another Norths!!!

Tottie there is no truth in Balmain covering Wests and WT in the first 3 years. If you have proof I'd like to see it. What I understand is WT blew $8 Million in the first 3 years of the JV, that money was from the NRL to start the JV. Question is, who was in charge and irresponsible to blow these funds?
