New chairperson?

[stryker]

The entire board needs to go!!!!
They can't be trusted to make the right decisions, it's quite clear.

They let the Farah and Taylor drama go on and disrupt our entire season only to eventually give our club legend the boot, now only three games into the season they're flicking the coach.

Why didn't they just flick Taylor last year?

Now we're paying Farah a ridiculous chunk of our cap while he's playing against us and we are looking for a new coach anyway.
We have 4 of our most important players all holding off on signing until they know who the new coach is.

The place is a circus

Yep. What a waste of time all that Taylor v Farah crap was. All it did was make the club look pathetic and the team miss the finals. This firing further strengthens that.

Beyond frustrating.

Know anyone? It's not that easy. Firstly to actually find someone who fits that criteria and then to attract them to a club that has a history of distinction at board level.

My Managing Director has no idea how to use our computer system but surrounds himself with subject matter experts…... There's something in that.

Ok try and find.someone with business and sport who hasn't heard of us, that'd help :smiley:

:roll
Perfect solution. I'll put the ad on Seek.

Toovey had a business background, he from memory is an accountant, he could do the job and if the coach fails take over that

You joke but he was on the board of the NRMA, he must have some idea what he is doing.

Since Wests own the joint the next chairman has to be from Wests. It's about time Wests got the acknowledgment for the money that they have been putting into the club. Without Wests there would be no Tigers. Long live the Pies!

I have been a Magpies fan since 79 but we just need the best people irrespective of their background.

Here's a question.

I don't know anything really about Go's ability or role inside the club. Her business credentials mean diddly-squat to me, I can't judge her from the stands.

However I do get the strong impression, any time she speaks to the media, that she doesn't really know what she is talking about. She may indeed know what she is talking about, but as a Joe Nobody watching from the crowd, she talks and what I hear is "I don't really have much idea at all about how a successful football club is run, here is some management-speak: process, KPI, success, organisation, consult, commitment, performances, plan."

Watching the presser yesterday, it seemed evident to me that Pascoe was absolutely on top of the message and how he would field questions, and Go was absolutely waiting for Pascoe to intercept all of those questions.

Given that there is every chance that I am wrong about this impression of Marina Go, is it my fault that I feel this way, or is it somewhat her fault for not instilling confidence in the supporter base? Does she even need the support of the supporter base?

It's definitely not a woman-thing, I work in an industry dominated by senior women and it's never been a problem for me. I am honestly happy to hear a knowledgeable woman talk about football, actually more than that, I am eager to hear from such an individual.

I get the impression that many people who query whether or not Go can do her job properly have this same impression, that she just doesn't appear that confident about what she is saying.
