Just out of interest - and if the club is monitoring this forum…

Lots of people have said they will not renew membership, buy merch, attend games etc. unless Sheens is sacked.

If he is sacked, will you be participating again or has this whole saga caused you to lose faith in the club?

If we can get a sample (abeit highly biased/suspect) of responses that clearly indicate keeping sheens will cost the club memberships etc, but axing him will save them (or even increase them) it might be good for the club to see.

I wasn't a member this year, but I'll probably sign-up if Sheens is cut. Just being honest - I know I should have been a member this year, but I live in QLD so I was slack. It would be my way of letting them know I agree with the decision and I plan to support the WT regardless. (FTR - I think Sheen's did some great things, but his time has past - I don't have any ill will towards him).
 
Sheens stays I will stay and upgrade my membership, sheens goes I will stay and upgrade my membership. I am a fan and a supporter and I want my club to succeed but I was a fan when terry lamb was coach, I was a balmain fan when Alan jones was coach so the last few years have been awesome in comparison 2 to
4 finishes in 3 yrs is more then I could have expected, I am not a fan because of this player or that player or because of the coach or even because we win or loose I am a fan and a member because they r my club and my team
 
I'm a Gold member with seats at all three grounds.

At this point I'm watching and waiting to see what happens, as I have said over and over the club needs a fresh start, new energy and enthusiasm.

It's not about winning games, I would be more likely to renew if we were favoured for the wooden spoon so long as I felt we were building towards something again.

The nepotism, boys club mentality and poor selections we have witnessed in recent times just cant continue.

It would be sad not to renew because I want to support the club but part of me is saying we need to vote with our feet to show the club we want change.
 
With the direct flights from home to Sydney and the fact I have someone to stay with while down there meant I would probably rejoin (even after merch debacle )

Will wait and see what our final position is
 
Moltzen has to go

He is the epitome of the ''Its not what you know ( or how hard and how much you put in)….its who you know" culture

The other players know he isnt there on merit....its clear watching at times hes out of his depth, he puts himself before the team, he isnt a team player, hes in the team because of his mate.....if nothing changes, nothing changes

If he's gone, and benjis held to account....I will be happy
 
I just want to see sheens at the club but In a different role, I want to see a Former Balmain player like Matt Parish take over and bring something new to our team. I'll renew my membership but I just want to see this mess fixed ! I want to know the players are happy again!

Amen boon boon!!!
 
Yes sir Ill be there. Sheens has given me some very fond memories indeed. Its probably time for him to move on though. Pitty it couldnt have been more dignified. ATM its all a bit messy and up in the air but by the time the new season comes around I'll be jumping out of ny skin to see how the boys recover and move forward with or without a new coach.
 
I'm intending on getting a 2013 membership but my decision will be based on personal factors like availability rather than any of this stuff. I support the team, the club, not individuals - plays come, players go, the club goes on.

If I supported individuals I'd probably be signing up for a Sharks membership…

Well pass this onto the club Bucko!

If Sheens is sacked I'll take my considerable influence, my wads of cash, my devilish good looks and most importantly my huge collection of wrinklies and I swear, I'll walk.
And if I do trundle off into the sorrowful night, believe me, you ( the club) will miss me and my turkey necked
harem.

For you see, every home game has me selflessly scoop up and transport a busload of toothless aging tigerettes from the Woy Woy Community centre and take it upon myself to drive the 48 seater (including special Defibrillator fittings) all the way down the F3 blaring Frank Sinatra as he croons his very rare B side of 'Eye of the Tiger' (not many people realize the Survivor version is a hugely inferior cover ) I do this fortnight after fortnight, season after season quite happily because I love The Wests Tigers. And I know with every fibre of my being that the Woy Woy Community Centre Tigerettes have been outraged by recent developments, they believe unconditionally in the vision of our head coach.

So be warned … If Sheens is sacked I'll not be renewing my membership, I'll no longer be packing Zimmer frames into the belly of the Leyland at 10AM on game day, I'll no longer queue for 40 buckets of luke warm crinkle cuts at half time, and God damn it I'll even toss my Order of Australia off the bloody Mooney Mooney bridge.

Pass that message on !!!!!!
 
As long as we have a team on the paddock i'll be there.

I would like the administrators to get their house in order before the pre season starts but they still have some time up their sleeve for that.

Bring on 2013
 
Will always support the Tigers through good and bad but it is time for a change.Change of coach, change of attitude from the players and the admin.
 
I have had a gold family membership costing $900 per year, for the past 4 years and I'm definitely NOT renewing.

I'll still go to games, but I'll pay as I go.

I don't care if Sheens is here and I don't care if Humphries stays or not.

It's the way the club treats its players and supporters 'as a whole' that I'm sick of.
- If the club verbally agrees to a new deal with a player then put the frigging contract on the desk and sign it.
- If a player announces to the club that he's signed elsewhere, then put out a statement advising the supporters immediately and wish the player good luck in his future.
- If a supporter questions something just because he or she is a passionate supporter, you don't call them a "so called supporter".
- If the clubs financial position isn't the best, wouldn't you sign Beau Ryan up just for the air time he's giving you?

Alright that's enough I'm getting worked up!

Live on the Gold Coast and make sure i attend 4 games a year spend alot of money for this, in July spent $700.00 in Jersey's for the family . Used to be a season ticket holder for 7 years when i lived in Sydney many years ago and even though I'm not a member at the moment , i will be next year cause spend that much money anyway .
If Farrah doesn't resign that will cut very deep and show that we are a club in turmoil.
 
I will be a gold member again in 2013

But if Sheens gets the sack , and this club starts to resemble the shit fight that it was before Sheens arrived , I don't think I will be able to hand over my hard earned for 2014
