Time to get serious

I'm both a Western Suburbs And Balmain Football Club member. For those who know me, I've put my hand up several times to be a Director, only to be conveniently pipped at the post on every occasion. My greatest concern as a supporter and as a member is that both sets of directors are very well entrenched in the past. This unfortunately is not good for progress and a real lack of forward thinking is only holding back the Joint-Venture. But i guess these are the challenges that come with a Join t-Venture with self interest and a real view to preserve what has been for 102 years.

Thankyou for your feedback everyone, well hopefully some good will come of this.

I dont know you personally Gobbs, but if you nominate to become a director in the future, you certainly have my vote in the Balmain elections. Im not asking anyone to follow my agendas, all I want to see is change and a new direction from this organisation which I feel has become stale (much like the NSW selection panel)

Can't remember the last time there was a vote at Balmain. If you go again you'd have my support
 
I think it's imperative that regardless if you're originally a Balmain or a Western Suburbs fan, to become members of 'both' football club's from a Wests Tigers perspective. There is always going to be individuals and factions with their hidden agenda's. Many Western Suburbs Football club members refer to the current directors as 'fossils' and rightly so. I'm sure it's the same with Balmain. Certain directors have mortgage's on their positions and without the power in numbers on the floor by members, it is almost impossible to oust them. It seems that way at Western Suburbs anyway. I made the choice to become a Balmain Football Club member for this very reason. To ensure nothing or no one will hold Wests Tigers back from moving forward into the future.
