is that simply because he holds a different view to yours?
Not at all. I can respect a difference of opinion. I can't respect someone who is not up-front about their agenda.
surely you agree that constructive debate is good at times like this
Indeed. However people entering that debate with hidden agendas is not honest, and therefore not acceptable.
im pleased we have very succesful and smart businessmen like fitzgibbon providing input
Is that the same fellow who resigned from the board, ostensibly due to an inability to manage a very easily managed conflict of interests?
In other words, the same guy who had opportunity to have real and substantial input, and mysteriously gave up that opportunity?
If you believe there wasn't more to it, that it was only that he was suddenly unable to manage something that had never been and was not an issue, I have some magic beans to sell you.
i certainly dont believe your big bad conspiracy theory that he wants to take ownership of the club holds much water..
He has been given multiple opportunities to deny interest, and has declined to do so. I can assure you my view is no "big bad conspiracy theory". I don't really appreciate the condescending tone here either champ. You know how to find me if you want to have that discussion.
on that note, did anything come out of the meeting or is it business as usual / more of the same?
The chairman stated unequivocally that the status quo is unacceptable, and that they are extensively researching different financing models.
I was also able to have a quick chat to Burro and Rob Tew after the meeting, and can assure you they are well advanced with putting some alternate (and very exciting) proposals together. I have no doubt that we are on the cusp of being a powerhouse.
