Rats In The Ranks ... On The Couch attack was 'staged'

[old dee 23,781]

First OTC on monday with Brock, then Insider on tuesday looking at our 09 game against the Tigers, then the former President bags the club on wednesday and today the back page of the little paper goes into detail about a function we are having to raise money for a war chest to chase players.

Now I was invited to that function and my invitation arrived two weeks ago. Who leaked that invitation to the press and why have they sat on the story for two weeks? Obviously timing is why they sat on it. Now we are being hammered, is the perfect time.

It is becoming clearer that there are people within our club who want to see the club harmed. They obviously have links with the press. Maybe they just want the current administration turfed and will do anything to see that happen. If this is true, then it is very sad. Jimmy as one of his main goals wanted to bring all supporters together. Looks like that is a dream.

It was this time last year CS was given a twelve month extension.

From memory his contract runs till the end of October

That being the case it is an amazing coincidence that at a similar time to last year's sacking, 186 and reinstating this all rears its head.

Is he getting a new contract or what?

I am not surprised that conspirators are afoot at the MFC

We have spent 5 years effectively producing nothing on the field.

Now whether they are right or not It is clear to me that for whatever reason a large number of the media have someone high up in the MFC in the Gun and will not give up until that person leaves the MFC.

Throw in a few members who agree and we have our current position.

Sad but not unexpected from were I sit.

Today's topic of a war chest I'd imagine came from the club itself.

Deflection away from tanking, as it's an unrelated issue.

I don't see how it's a negative issue.

Have you checked the website today.

A rash of good news stories.

It wasn't Cameron Schwab I saw out there on the field down at Geelong last year.

I have missed the connection RR between the highlighted sentence and your comment.

I will guess are you suggesting that I am saying CS is to blame?

Was not my intention as I have no idea what was behind that whole saga.

I think it is interesting that all this comes up almost 12 months to the week CS was given a twelve month extension.

It is time to renew his contract or not true?

So sick of pretend CEO's and pretend board members spouting on here

For the first time in 30 years has this club been in this position (financial) (FD up to speed)

and people want to pull down all the hard work and get a new CEO and board......so they can spout their own importance.......

Give the club a chance to consolidate....Mistakes have probably been made and will probably will again but for goodness sake give them a go....
