@stevetiger:
Who says that Harry T will make this club competitive. I can’t see that happening and if he wanted to help he should chuck in a bunch of 3rd party deals.
I think Harry T would run any business far far better than our current board.
From what I have been told he wants to own the whole club and appoint the board, CEO and coaching staff, fair enough if you are putting in all the money.
Wests Ashfield do not want to sell their half and that is their decision (don’t really know why as 15 out of 16 NRL clubs run at a loss every year, I am sure they have great reasons why the dont want to sell).
I think it is highly unlikely that Harry T with no control in the club is going to arrange a lot of Third Party deals. I can’t see him putting money in with no say on the running of the club no smart businessman does that. I can understand why Harry T is not arranging a lot of Third Party Deals at the moment, the current board couldn’t run a chook raffle.
If he was to buy the club I am sure he has the financial clout to make the Third Party money at clubs like the Broncos, Souths and Roosters look like loose change.
I have said many times the joke is how do you become a millionaire? You are a billionaire that buys a football team.
