Rumours and Stuff

I have no confidence in the Penny pinching Auditor, this bloke was handpicked by Max same as the board rest of the board. None with any RL experience, it was shown by all the cost cutting on the football department. Which has now won us a spoon, not one of this new amazing board questioned the decision. And we still have lost 10mil. And you wonder why I have no confidence????

Apart from the Dogs who have 4 former first graders on their board and are yet to prove they can manage the business side of a footy club, only Broncos, Sharks, Panthers and Roosters have a single Director with any footy experience based on what I can find with some quick research. Doesn't seem like RL experience is a pre-requisite to success or otherwise.

another nuthugger abandoning ship


The nuthuggers are diving into the water.

Maybe I am alone but I dont mind BA having another year based on us having a football manager like say a Bennet and an attack coach. Roosters have JT.
BA i feel after 2016 become emotionally connected to players and to loyal. Seems an empathetic and great human. But it may cost him in the end as some of his players who stuck by him and he stuck by and let him down too.

But ultimately he had the power to make tough decisions and failed too

Well this amazing new board have delivered us a spoon, after they decided to cut funding in the football department.

Spin it how you like but I have no confidence in them whatsoever. All appointed by a bloke who is running the
Club like it’s bankrupt.

Mad Max’s puppets.

I thought it was Arthur's fault we got a spoon?
He’s responsible, they all are I’ll say it again. But whatever the board have done has nothing to with his shithouse recruiting and dreadful style of football. His refusal to fix up our problems in the middle and going into the season with easily the worst dummy half rotation in the comp.

You're responsible.

He's not spinning anything.

He's providing evidence that suggests that your claim that 'no football experience is a problem' is 100% horse semen.

In the end, the opinion of intellectual minds that pervade the Eels forum won't change a thing. It wasn't that long ago that BA was the rock that kept Parra together. Now, he's the ship that everybody wants rammed into that rock. I've been there and seen it all since 1976, the absolute excellence to the pitifully abysmal. As far as I'm concerned, a contract should be binding unless there's an amicable agreement to part ways. A lot of bias against BA now since we cornered the spoon, but that's OK. At least the club hasn't gone off like a bomb in a fireworks factory. I'm sure there's quite a few here who've processed chickens in times gone by.

So the rock is underwater is it?
