2011 Parra Football Club AGM

[Maroubra Eel]

Even if Guru isn't eligible to be on the board I reckon they should be able to bend the rules.

 

[Kornstar]

No I would say they were asking valid questions and even the boards staunches supporters would conceed they looked like a rabble up on stage.

Is that like when we used to see a bumbling Alan Overton staggering through, needing to have the CEO give him directions and leading him in what to say?

not around here mate, to many agendas going on, they would never let the facts get in the way.

Is there a copy of the constitution available online?

 

[MarkInTheStands]

That's great then.
Good to see Denis doing what he thinks is the best thing for the club.
Glad to hear his heart is still in the place, and he's asking questions to make sure the board keep everything above board. It's all sweet then.

Suity

Denis asked a few questions, but I would hardly say he was the main protagonist. Everyone that asked a question of this board seemed to catch them on the hop.

As you know, Ovo is a friend of mine, but even I will admit, especially at AGM's his performance was far from stellar. But there were people sitting on the table who could answer the questions raised.

Having said that I am not comparing the two, nor should you, I don't see fit to have Alan Overton run again for the board of this club, nor does he. Alan has done his time.

If there was someone better than the current mob surely they'd be in charge.

Do they even have any competition?

 

[Jake the snake]

Sounds like he's back in the loop.
He could be in charge again this time next year.
Our future may not be certain again beyond 5 more years.
The pressure of survival is probably a good thing.

Suity

I will only vote for fitzy and the old brigade if they Bribe me with free feeds at Tingha!!

Unlike last time when they just offered the freebies to the asians.

The old board were a real disgrace.

Nahhhhh no competition. The current mob have done so well in turning a round the place. We have a chance surviving more than 5 years now pheeewwww!

 

[Fathead]

Apparently its been confirmed that Guru is 6 months short... as Fitzy no doubt knew.
Embarrasing and unprofessional.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

No biggie IMO.

What's more worrying is we have KPI's that we are not sure what we are measuring. Hopefully it's a wake up call.

 

[SDM]

Bring back Fitzy!

they will either need to select someone else or change the constitution which will require the members to vote on it.
They can not just change the rules to suit.

The mind boggles if they can't even get the basics right.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Aw c'mon guys it's Guru Sr. As if he's not allowed on the board.

 

[born an eel]

I suppose the other solution is to wait until EGS qualifies and then announce his appointment.

 

[mickdo]

Disappointing if true. He'll probably get in on the next election anyway I would think.

 

[Gronk]

Tell me it isn't true Captain !

 

[Jodeci]

I suppose the other solution is to wait until EGS qualifies and then announce his appointment.

And that is what will happen.

 

[Gronk]

Pretty sure it's already happened.

Eric Grothe Snr appointed to Eels Board

Maybe you mean they will re-announce it ?

 

[Eels Dude]

As much as I'm sick of Fitzy the fact he knows more about this issue than the current board and caught them out makes them look a bit foolish especially considering it happened at an AGM. He really left them with egg on their face in this regard.
