If Flanno gets sacked

[Eastview]

Christmas has come early

 

[gavin_miller]

Just to clarify, Russell didn't find it, an ex NRL stooge he hired found it. BR reported it.

also the board allowed Baz to take the issue to the NRL. They advised him to do it.

 

[Avenger]

Flanno was never going to be re-signed. I heard this months ago, way before this. They can't cop him. The $800K will hurt more.

 

[RandyAndy]

It is what Ive heard first hand about his actual work at the club.
I was told that basically he has done nothing.
Not one cent added to the club.

From a person I regard as through and through Sharks.
You do too.

if you look up in the dictionary shit hitting the fan, you'll find it shows a picture of the cronulla sharks.
BR seriously under estimated what he was getting the club into when self reporting, thinking it was in the clubs best interest to do so.
All BR has addedto the club is a negative balance sheet, losing millions in sponsorship dollars, having the club seen as a laughing stock on a national level with a rival club siging a sponsor that the sharks were trying to get, and now he has added a $400k fine and removing any sort of positivity leading into 2019 seson for the fans

was he seriously the best candidate to become ceo?

SF does also need to take the blame for what he has doene as it seems to be pretty simple what the rules were during that time after one of the toughest periods during the drugs era

I wonder what the future holds for the sharks? Relocation? Kicked out of the comp? See a large group of players walk out? Wooden Spoon 2019?

Be worried.

The sauce is good.

He sounds like a dictator.
Somehow he got into the top job.

Look at recent events down there.

The irony is that he got the job because Flano went into bat for him! They were mates!

Probably not now?

For all you blokes supporting Barry's self reporting which has ultimately lead to the most successful coach in the clubs history getting punted and the club (which is already broke) getting an 800K fine just remember to keep supporting Barry when there is no Sharks team to support anymore.

 

[Frank Discussion]

Probably not now?

Absolutely not! Fireworks!

Sadly this matches with a first hand account from a mate who worked with him at Harvey’s. I mentioned it in the Sponsors thread. My mates not a league fan, but was not impressed with baz at all. Reckons the Harvey’s job was a fan boy appointment in the first place

 

[carcharias]

Absolutely not! Fireworks!

I know a bloke who would be a great CEO.

He should go for it.

 

[shaggs]

I get the impression Barry Russell will hire the most boring merkin on earth to coach.

Can’t have a game plan more boring than Shane’s

 

[carcharias]

Can’t have a game plan more boring than Shane’s

I’d agree a few years ago
The last 2 years not so much.

 

[Craigshark]

Shane f**ked up, but as if every other club isn’t doing similar things.

Barry has f**ked us, I can’t see us recovering from this to be honest.

I don't think every other club is doing it.

I don't remember any other club having the coach suspended.

Do you think that this bloke walked into a club with lots of small fires covered by blankets and as part of setting up the ‘new non-dodgy’ sharks he lifted these blankets and now we have a raging fire??

The sharks have been Mis managed since conception.
Perhaps Barry needs a chance to actually do the work that a CEO should do when he doesn’t have to clean up after the merkins who were previously in charge.

As a club we have some blokes who are disliked. By everyone. Sure they can play a bit, but behaviour that a coach should knock on the head continued on and off the field.
Management wise, the previous CEO spent $75 million on T-shirt’s that can’t be sold for $5. The coach was one of the most smug bullshit artists the game has seen.

Time for a massive broom. Time for a clean out. The fish always rots from the head.
Reset the culture to one that sponsors actually want to be a part of for more than 12 months.

 

[shaggs]

Picture this me little chin wags.

Just imagine if there was an insider inside the Donks organisation that just decided to lift the corner carpet and started disclosing to all about what had been swept under it over the past 5 years.

And then there is the Thoroughbred Club. yeahhhhhh right.

Problem is the thoroughbreds have endless cash to keep people quiet.
Sharks don’t even have enough to pay suppliers of equipment.

 

[Born BB&W]

Barry should now press the NRL to strip the club of the 2016 title.

If Flanno was interfering as much as they say he was in 2015 then obviously that would have impacted the following season in some ways no brainer.

Good stuff Barry love your work.

 

[Surely]

Because he thought it would be a good idea to check on the shoddy work the previous management did?
I commend him for doing so with all the crap hes found.

All the crap ?

He probably found it hiding under the 2016 premiers trophy


What f**ks me off is flanno got arse f**ked over ASADA because he should have known manlys veteran sports scientist was a shock

Then we see in Bellamy it's ok to know nothing about two sets of books

 

[Mr Angry]

So moving on, Morris you say?

I believe what I was told.
I have no reason not to ... as straight a shooter as I’ve known.
The info was not just from his current position either.
It hurt because I loved Barry as a player.

This will end badly I reckon.
