Like I and a few others here have been saying all along, we needed to get the Admin right and then this club would be the number one club in this State bar none if we included every aspect of the game.
But posters like Pou kept telling us we couldn't match it with the top clubs no matter what and would rollout excuse after excuse. Pou still believes that we can't get sponsorships to match the best clubs, but again that will change the longer we stay strong and successful on and off the field.
All I kept saying was we needed the right strong leadership and all the benefits of being Parramatta would start to present themselves. It's a no brainer really. Parra is the bomb and we will be unrivaled soon, we just need a few more things to be addressed, like setting up our juniors the way Gould has for the Panthers and now the Warriors, but that is for another discussion.
So I was very critical and vocal about it. The management of this club nearly ruined this club and it was a minor miracle that things went down the way they did and we ended up in the place we are today. All the ingredients were there, but the chefs were like British holiday students who didn't even know how to turn on the oven. Now we are run by Cordon Bleu Chefs by comparison and the souffle is coming out high and tastier then ever.
Like I always say, NO EXCUSES!
