If you said “yep I can do this” to ur boss then you have to take some responsibility if you failed.

Whether BA said he could do it I don’t know
Coaches are right up near the top of the food chain at their clubs - no excuses for things like this ... he has plenty of responsibility for having to do more tasks than he should have

It’s got nothing to do with BAs feeling on the HOF position. My point was he was doing recruitment duties beyond the duties he was employed for. If you are failing at a job above your pay grade, is it really your fault?
Yep. What Noise said below but whether or not thats the case we dont know. I reckon he wanted to "do recruitment", you probably think he was forced to do it.

Said it before and got laughed at. BA shouldn’t of thrown his hands up for all these roles.

Maybe but I also don’t think it was a case of his superiors asking if he could do the extra work

I don’t think he wanted it or asked for it. I do think his involvement was exaggerated by some punter on here

I'd say yes. At the end of the day your arse is on the line if you're not up to the task. If he was taking on too much then he should have put his hand up and said so. I see no evidence suggesting BA or the club were even talking about it.
But in BA’s defence he never talks to anybody.

Just imagine for a moment if he did!

How the f**k do you know that he did?

Sorry Barry didn’t mean to unsettle you. I’m assuming here mate, but considering we had no defensive coach till well into the season, and it’s been stated several times BA was in charge of the cap. Amongst other things. Plus it’s been well documented the eels cut a lot of staff.


May I suggest you have a light English tea and a nap to settle you.

Bernie: Hey Brad
BA: ..........
Bernie: Listen, I'm thinking of handing you a few more responsibilities. What do you say?
BA: .........
Bernie: If you've got any objections or concerns, just let me know.
BA: .........
Bernie: Then it's settled. Good talk.
Brad: My phone is ringing, (there's a turn up for the books). Kiddy, can you get that, I've got my therapist on hold. Hindy someone, he says he can fix everything.

And how about we get rid of F'n "Click Go The Shears" and find some inspirational rock anthem for our new stadium. Anything would be better.
Eg. Cash in on all the Bohemian Rhapsody Movie vibe currently headlining.
Queen songs such as:
. Dont stop me now
. I want it all
. Another one bites the dust
. We will rock you/We are the champions.
C'mon Bernie. Get on it.

I know if I ran the club we would be top 4 every year. I would be the greatest coach ever. I just love my job to much.

I don't dispute that he's in charge of the cap (it's pretty clear that he is). It's your assertion that he 'threw his hands up' for all of these roles. Have you considered the possibility that these were the terms of employment offered to him?
