I think that one might have gone over your head champ
The Titans won the spoon in 2011
But have you seen the new escalators,Rusty weights should not affect the way we defend. No excuses.
Saying that you'd think the leagues club could afford to fork out for some decent gun equipment and training facilities instead of funding that dumb useless club at dundas.
so we are blaming the new board that has been in for 5 minutes for not updating the facilities yet :crazy:Hey Jake. if we didn't have the Vikings then we would have the cash, but then we would still have most of the old board.
I heard their intention was to sell the redundant club and fund the football team, but they became important in the vote at the change of board and now we are stuck.
At least we have Parrafirst
I find it hard to believe we can not find finance to improve the football facilities without the sale. The old board made so much about the bottom line they were to scared to make hard decisions for the long term betterment of the team. They had payed off some debt so would imagine they could borrow some more if required.Born, I don't ca way who runs the club. I happen to know that the plan wasti use the funds from the sale of a loss making club to find football club upgrades. Apparently the vote was more important than the upgrade, and we are stuck with an ordinary loss making club that Fitzy bought to sell as the land was more valuable than the purchase price.
I have been around a lot longer than you and just want what is best for the Eels, couldn't care less who does what as long as we move forward.

We have supposed to have made something like a $6M profit last year, I wonder what $5M buys these days?
there's the problem, they have been using liquorice sticks as tackling bagsnot as many liquorice sticks as it once did
i find it baffling that under brian smith our training facilities were among the best (if not the best) in the nrl. if the article is right about how crap our training, recovery and sports science facilities/departments, then the club needs to pull its finger out and sort things out.

wonder what happened to the money from the two blues club, but than selling assets become important in inflating the bottom line to justify the change of board and now we are where we are.
at least we still have Roy on the football board.

Yes the rusty weights made the players miss tackles, throw bad passes and not chase the opposition.
Their comes a time and you ve got to take responsibility for what has happened, the coach and the players
yeah it must be the facilities, just look how the Wanderers performed using the same equipment.........The Eels not only have to share the facilities at Parramatta Stadium with A-League's Western Sydney Wanderers,
This thread gives alot of answers to questions why the club is where it is. If it's not pissing and moaning about newspaper articles its getting little 1 up manship by hero who hide behind screen names. Any half decent supporter base should be demanding answers what the boards plans are to rectify the train wreck and not settle for blame games or piss weak interviews/emails.
The current mob need to come up with better ideas than that embarrassing raffle.
Well at least we have some good escalators and (privately operated?) restaurants inside the club now.... that 2008/9 change at Board level was sure worth it :sarcasm:.
Well said as usual Ratchy.This thread gives alot of answers to questions why the club is where it is.
