Cayless Booze up

[JoeyJoJo83]

It would be nice if the club could organise exclusive member events. I don't recall any events being organised for the members of the club.

It's nice to have public events like fan days etc but something just for the members would be nice. IMO the club has dropped the ball on this.

Also this isn't a dig at the current board, it would be nice if the club could think of it's members in the future.

Simple People

Ring the club and ask them why this event wasn't broadcasted to all members.

There is no point calling up the Bride and Groom asking why you weren't invited to the wedding, as the answer is pretty obvious.

Stupid board, it's all their fault I didn't get an invite.

It's the board fault for everything, have we blamed the board for the interest rate hike?

Yes. Interest rates, the A380 engine failure and that pile of asbestos at Barraba too.

If they were to invite fans and charge $300 a ticket, there would be whinging too... Sometimes you can't win.

Personally, I've said goodbye and thank you and see no need to attend a dinner, but I'm a simply guy whose easily pleased.

You could see it now couldn't you!!!

"$300 for a ticket for a night out and then they want to hit you up for 2011 season ticket" Blah Blah Blah Blah:crazy:

I'm gonna invite Caylo over to my place for dinner and NOT invite any officials or sponsors ... there - take that! BAM!!

True there would be people who would bitch regardless, but don't you think it would be better to give the option then none at all?

I can understand if the club wants to keep this for the sponsors and those associated with the club but at least give something back to the members.

No I don't think so. Sometimes no publicity is good publicity. The club has done more in the last 12 months for it's fans than it has in the past 5 years.

What would you propose and what would it cost?

I don't want to bag out us fans, but the night should be about Cayless now and not something for the fans.

Maybe it was even his call to have his family, team mates, friends, club officials and like attend ONLY?

people around here want too much

Like I said, I can understand if they want to keep it a personal thing and only have those associated with the club thats fair enough.

But surly the club could organise say a charity dinner for the members, have the first grade squad there along with the coaching staff. Give the members the opportunity to mingle with the players and staff. Make it $100 per head. Money raised from the even could go to a local charity like the children's hospital, it cant be that hard.

What? All 360 of them?

The tactics of the usual nuffies are getting incredibly boring:

1. Take a known fact - eg Cayless tribute is sold out without general public invitation / Osborne meets with Stephen Kearney / Dennis Fitzgerald sues the Leagues Club / A staff member has their employment terminated

2. Delve well beyond the known facts, and assert complete and utter speculation as fact - Board is fiunding tribute night to bribe Cayless into company line for expected application to Board / 3P have secret agenda to sack Anderson solely because he is a DF appointment / the Court case was prompted solely because 3P want to wrongfully terminate DF life membership as part of a personal vendetta / all staff dismissals related to same vendetta

3. Completely ignore the fact that "the Board" is in fact made up of diverse interests over and beyond 3P

4. Completely ignore all other possible logical explanations - Club supporting a registered charity, any expenditure being valid marketing and networking exercise; appointment of SK to do with on field performance not vendetta; Supreme Court proceedings instigated by DF and/or reflect genuine and serious claim; dismissal of employees related to serious breach of employment duties not personal vendetta;

5. Hysterical rhetoric as opposed to factual basis for argument

This way a gang of five or 6 people can actually turn every single thread into a political highjack.

Very very boring.

Member events for this year were locked away in August 2009 under the old group of marketing and game day operations.

The new girls in the office had no control over the info booklet for 2010 nor any events

I'm sure 2011 will have a lot more member events

Cool thanks for the update on that, it would be good to have a few member events.

I have been invited to Caylo's dinner and will be attending, I'll post what goes on and maybe some pics also.

I got invited too, but my mum is cooking a lamb roast, and I dont trust the board members present not to steal my wallet.

did the invite include a "how to vote" card?

could this be the new "tingagate":sarcasm:, Roy may loose his life membership over this.
