Two CEOs in two days. The game is afoot. Panthers putting alot of pressure on the other Western Sydney Teams

I hope Potter is sitting back relaxing enjoying a fine cognac savoring the moment.

Comes as a surprise. Maybe he didn't like being kept in a box by the Board!

Good stuff. Long overdue. The bloke couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery.

Good

 

[Tigerdave]

that's a little, out of the blue

 

[supercoach]

Did not see that coming, I wonder if he has been pushed or he heading back to Manly where he is well connected with the current owners.

I think Mayer did a lot of good things for our club and will be missed

Didnt see that coming - always something brewing at Wests Tigers

Not Surprised… I figured he would be punted earlier considering the make up of the new board.

Search the World to find us a First Class Administrator. An inspirational leader who can attract world class sponsors!

An actual resignation? Or a resign or you're fired?

Very surprising news. Interesting to see Go saying "the next step in our evolution," as if this was part of it.

I'd suggest this was on the cards the entire time;

- First, replace the board
- Second, Recruit Key areas in Football Department
- Replace CEO

There is no way you could have removed Mayer any earlier without landing in a bigger S#%t storm.

 

[Oggyz]

Sounds like he's been punted.

 

[Flippedy]

Ooh very interesting, I like the idea of Moss as CEO - I'm hoping he keeps the job.

The last part of the ingredients for a fresh start

Pretty Much… Its just business and part of the cycle of change.

Hoping we get a great administrator with vision greater than the Sydney Congested Marketplace!

And who will work for a pittance.

If a CEO resigns on their own accord, they usually stay on until a replacement is found.

The fact it's effective immediately says to me he was punted.
