Way to miss the point tithead, where did i say i want the previous cowboys back in charge?? They are gone and deservedly so doesn't mean the people who are now in charge are up to the task either. Give this board a chance?? They have had over two years and all we get is excuses.
Because i am critical of the incompetence of this board i am part of a "destroy Parra" meeting :lol: Get f**ked!!
Like Sharp and his clowns needs any more help??? I won't be happy till all the factions are pissed off and we are taken over by independent professionals with some business acumen.
Clearly with the current set up we will never get merkins without self interest or agenda's involved. Keep cheering for mediocrity, you weren't here when the same defenders of team Sharp were upholding the board to a different level of scrutiny.
Oh ok.. you win then..
Thin arguments are always revealed when you have to resort to name calling, geez, pick a better name that tithead, you may as well have said doody head. Child.
You see, the really funny thing, is that we are both on the same side of this argument, except you are so busy focusing on everything that's wrong, instead of trying to see the positives.
Am I saying bury your head in the sand? no. but think of it this way. The board could easily have told the NRL that the clause was ok and they wanted it that way, registered forans contract as is, and we would have been none the wiser, instead, they realise it was a crippling clause and took steps to fix it, at the risk of losing 2 big things, 1) the biggest signing we've had in a long time and 2) the support of the fans.
I call that a gutsy call. There was nothing illegal about the clause, the NRL would register it if we told them to, they called it to the boards attention cause it was weird and not a usual thing.
Just remember, the glass is half full, the current board have, what 2-3 years left, they aren't going anywhere (anyone who think they will quit is kidding themselves), and unless the cause major financial trouble at the club, they won't be forcibly outed either. as long as the PLC is making money, those who are able to step in and change the board won't do squat.
I agree with you though, they haven't had a great record so far, neither has anyone running the club for a long time, I also agree that they need people with much stronger business sense, but I don't see them lining up to take the job.
I dare you to respond to this post nicely, I dare you.
by the way, I've been on this forum since 2007, just didn't post much back then. But I read plenty...
