STILL*at Parramatta and there's been plenty of talk about Souths CEO Shane Richardson defecting from Redfern to get the Eels' front office in order.
We can confirm Eels directors were approached about Richardson but knocked him back because some felt his sympathies were aligned to former CEO and bitter rival Denis Fitzgerald.
That leaves Bob Bentley in charge of both the leagues club and NRL team - a double role that Fitzgerald was roundly criticised for occupying.

Once again we see a decision made that serves the interest of individuals or a group rather than the club and more importantly our fans.
I hope they have someone better in mind then. He gets on with Fitzy - who cares? We need to have someone with his sort of Football Management/CEO experience ASAP.
It's looking like the only option the current board will accept is a return of Zappia which is far from ideal but at least better than the current situation.(I'm not advocating this BTW) *This hypocrisy of Fitzy being criticized for running both boards and then having exactly the same thing 3 years later needs to be rectified.*
I'm hoping at the next elections that neither 3P or those aligned with Fitzy dominate and take full control of the boardroom again. If neither side rules carte blanche then hopefully we won't end up with appointments that simply favour one side or the other but rather the club as a whole. Our clubs recent history has proven that any group that dominates makes decisions based on self interest and it's high time that it changed.
I'm hoping that several independents other than myself run at the next election like James Phair who is the president of the Parramatta EEls Supporters Club and a couple of people who I have heard that are passionate about our Juniour Leagues.*
I will be voting for worthy individuals including Phil,Muttman and James if he decides to run rather than just voting for a ticket and trying to make sure that we have a board with the best representation possible and hopefully one that puts the fans first rather than themselves.
Now I find this guy to be very agenda driven and in the past some are claiming he was very pro Ossie and had claimed to had a very strong relationship with the rest of the board . I have not been there long enough to confirm but some say he deleted some 5000 odd posts of history to cover up what he had said in the past . I find this slimy and deceitful , Phil and Muttman are smart guys and could do a great job somewhere in the club but unfortunately it looks like they may have promised a job for this guy . What do you guys over here think ?
