Phil Gould

[2010]

Reports everywhere that he has left the Panthers. Big call if true

 

[denis preston]

His column last Sunday promoting how great the roosters are was a Hugh sign that he wanted out.

Gus is off the Ivan Bus!! Not sure if he was gently pushed or thrown.

Phil Gould's time at the Penrith Panthers is set to come to an end with the club to hold a board meeting on Wednesday.

As it stands, Gould is still employed by the Panthers, however NRL.com understands he recognises his job has become redundant under the Ivan Cleary regime.

The board will move to ratify plans around Gould's departure from his post as the club's general manager of football at the meeting on Wednesday.

As of Wednesday, it is likely he will no longer have any involvement with the NRL team, despite already having his input reduced dramatically upon Cleary's arrival.

The club is still to determine the conditions of his departure but have mutually agreed his time working with the football department is over.

"We met this morning, myself, [Penrith chairman] Dave O'Neill and Gus," chief executive Brian Fletcher told NRL.com.

"We spoke about his role and asked what he thought of it going forward. He came back and said 'my job has become redundant'. He recognises that with Ivan here, the right structures are in place.

"He asked me to take it to the board and I will be doing that [on Wednesday]. You have to remember his intention was always to make his job redundant at some point."

Yes please. Find him a job. Bring his influence and knowledge to the Dragons. Love him or hate him he knows his sh_t. Problem is I doubt we could afford him. Watch him get snapped up (if he wants it).

 

[Coffs dragon]

Didn't take long for the Mole to link him to the Dragons!

You boys just resigned your coach, why do you need another.

 

[Gareth67]

He won’t be here as they have only just resigned our illustrious maestro and if there is one thing that Phil juuuuuust luvs doing and that is sacking coaches . Off to the narks and the local at Gunnamatta Bay .

I'd like to a job created for Gus at SGI. Right now he is the man we need to bring some sanity to the football side of management. He could be our GM and do a great job sorting our the mess.

Lets have Millward, Mary and other key management staff report to Gus. That would be a big shot across the bow of the 'old boys club'.

 

[merahputih]

I doubt that Gus would be interested in anything less than a 'Director of Football' type roll.

Don’t u read dis Forum?
90% want him out the door

I must say I always enjoy the drama of Gus’s onfield intros to Origin

Give him that role and give him a seat on the SGI Board. We need a shake-up.

I recall Gus commented last year critical about signs of fatigue with our forwards after S.O.O. and why they wern't rested.

So he can sack McGregor. Of course.

 

[rednwhites]

Gould would see straight through McGregor's deficiencies. He wouldn't tolerate them or will at least kick up a fuss. Sign him now...but it is a pipe dream. He may have supporter Saints as a young man but he ain't one of the boys.

We don't have the management nor the nous to utilise him knowledge.
Gus ain't coming to Dragonland.
He's too smart for that.
Were not smart enough!

The mole reporting that Dragons are darkhorse to sign Gould with Sharkies as favourites

[Crush]

I've heard a couple of board members at SGI speak very negatively about Gus in the past.
I doubt they would take him on, he'd stir the pot too much and probably want success, something they aren't used to chasing. They are comfortable.

 

[j0nesy]

I like Gus but it would be a disaster for our club. Both Mary and Gus are big egos and I think they’ll clash. Such a clash would not result in Mary leaving.
