Brian Johnston quits

[slippery5]

Then lets find someone business-like him. But with a moral compass.

I respect your view, but from a personal angle this prick put the game through shit. Not on his own mind you.

Correct on all points.......

John Howard for CEO.
Ran a country for 11 years, has a boyhood passion for St.George. Seems a good fit to me.

As long as he doesn't bring Abbott with him.

Fair comment SoG but l think little Johnny Howard will have other issues.

Ahh finally he has done it. Sad really he is not necessarily the one who should be walking away as did not have support of or agree with others on the board.
Those that blame Johnno for extending McGregor (yes he endorsed it in public and maybe supported it) but he did not do it against the boards wishes.

Thanks for passing on that info. I was already suspecting that what you said may have been the case. It looks/sounds like BJ was being undermined the whole time he took over, I am suspecting by Craig Young. Craig Young may still think he is the captain and behaved in that manor.

Correct me if I am wrong, but every other assistant or lower grade coach, besides Dean Young has been moved on since Dean Young was made part of our coaching staff. What a co incidence, Dean must be a really good coach to have survived, while all the others got sacked. Now here is an interesting consideration. Craig Young doesn't want us to sign a good coach, because for one he will want to bring his own coaching staff with him and two, Dean Young's chances of taking over from a good coach would be less than taking over from Mary. I think some others may have already suggested things along the same lines.

If Craig Young takes over from BJ, I can see only doom and gloom for us.

The solution is simple.

No more St George CEOs.. Clearly they are duds.

We’ve been held back for far too long with their bumbling, nepotism and cronyism.


The next leader must come from Illawarra!

It’s our only path to success..

Wooden spoon here we come

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

He’s also a politician so will do disgusting things like this to win a vote or two.

 

[Forbes Creek Dragons]

How about a CEO that is not an ex player? Maybe one with a business background.

 

[Willow]

lol I must be alone being actually sad to see him go.

He's had a tough run of shitty issues to deal with since he's been at the club this time around.
Actually he had to deal with a tough run of shit last time round.

This crap would have tested any poor prick stepping into the role. He didn't cause it, but it sure as shit put him in the crapper.

Good luck to him. He is one of the best blokes this club ever had both playing for it & administering it.

It'll be a tough gig finding someone capable to step into this poisonous cesspit.

Now spew at me as you see fit.

No, you're not alone.

People forget that the CEO is not a dictator. Decisions or recommendations have to be backed by the board. CEO is a powerful position but he/she still has to carry out the wishes of the board.

I always found BJ to be very approachable. The same goes for other fans, including a few fellow forummers.

100% Willo, I depart Currumbin today but will see you 1 August up here for the Titans game.

For those saying John Howard should be CEO, he's 80 years old! I know that makes him close in age to plenty of posters here but come on, let him enjoy whatever time he has left without having to worry about the basket case that is the Dragons.

I would have liked them to look at Steve Price (the good one). He has a business background and obviously plenty of experience in the game, but alas he's been recently made the Bulldogs football manager. Plus having another Steve Price around would have been hilarious.

No....would expose what's allegedly going on..........

 

[Gareth67]

I recall the ‘85 G.Final against our nemesis Canterbury , they showed Howard before the kick-off with a Dragon scarf wrapped around his scrawny little neck ( not tight enough for my liking ) , but after we were beaten his was wearing a bluudy Bulldog scarf as he stood on the podium all smiles . . .that said it all about his allegiance to the club.

All the people proposed / or suggested as maybe being the new CEO thus far are complete and utter duds compared to my candidate who is the only person imminently qualified to take over as CEO and he also comes with a deputy CEO as well.
He has broad range of experience, a long and successful history in the retail industry, excellent customer relationship skills, and what is extremely pleasing is that he is well known to the media as well as the council and could broker decent outcomes with those crucial business partners.
His knowledge and understanding of all things good for St GI is without question, he is an absolute Saint whose name just happens to be George (just incredible) and he is the man on the left who of course used to be the man who once held a banner for our previous CEO "Oust Doust"

 

[twinkletoes]

I'm suspecting with BJ gone and Young being touted as CEO the Flanno deal may have hit a roadblock

He's got my vote, oh wait...I haven't got one.

If he gets up we will all get a vote.

 

[Forster Dragon]

Why would they have An ageing Craig Young as CEO makes no sense.He has no management skills and PR skill set is non existent
