Or just 10 minutes even ;-)

There's a lot more to coaching than copying bellamy's five year plan

You reckon he should have copied Daniel Anderson's five year plan?

Least that way he can f**k the next coach over if he gets the arse. Good old Ando's 'plan' is still haunting us.

What plan?????

What plan?????

Give it to hayne

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Yeah I know.

The state he left the club in it's almost like he knew all along he'd only be here for two years.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

Ando wasn't doing much recruiting in 2010. He had Ozzie running around behind his back trying to sign players. It was a circus. And most of you silly merkins thought Ozzie was a good operator. He was a merkin too.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

He did know. It wasn't exactly a closely guarded secret.

Well that worked for 12 weeks in 09.......

Surely you can't be that dumb. Who cares about DA. Stop clutching at straws. You are starting to make bunniesman and GABA look like geniuses. ](*,)](*,)](*,)](*,)

having had the pleasure of speaking to people at the club i'm certain that the current coaching staff have the systems, process's and procedures in place to build for the future, i have and will continue to encourage others to talk to a director or Bently if they have any concerns about the future direction of our club at the football level.

do you have examples here of whats changed? and is it normally the coaches job to over look / implement this? thanks

Well given that we don't have a football manager as yet I would say I would dare say that the head coach over looks and implements it... To be honest, I'm not the best person to answer the first part of your question however a director, CEO or any member of our coaching staff can and for the life of me I can't understand why we don't utilize these people instead of venting their spleen here, mate, the only reason I don't complain about the club here is because I do it in front of them myself.

And while I agree that is a great way of doing it, there is only a limited number of directors and people have a limited amount of time.

Now I know you remember I said at the AGM the board or CEO need to utilize the methods available to the club, to speak to the members about these things, because without it the members will feel uninformed.

I also then had a director of the club "all in good fun" ridicule me for the idea, so I don't know how serious they will have taken my suggestion.

Best to stand out the back in the carpark and wait for an official looking dude to walk by and then rip in.

From what I remember you didn't quite you didn't quite get off in the right foot that night as you questioned the chairmans passion for the club but I wasn't aware of any other conversation you had with them.

 

[Bigfella]

Lol.

Well what can I say mate, I must be a stalker then. Then again I can always carry on like a tool here and tell the world how badly this club is run without any substance.

don't tell me he called him a "deathrider".
It goes down so well here to promote intelligent discussions. :sarcasm:

I have noticed things are more civil in the morning these days and we can have good banter.
Is there a way to get poo poo into a totally diferent timezone?

I reckon if you ask Spags he'll have a different meaning to the word deathrider, you know what they say about Italian men in designer suits lol

Then you have a very selective memory.

I said that the chairman's passion for the club was not visible to the membership and that the membership was suffering because of a lack of communication, much along the lines of what was seen at the meeting.

And yes I did have a conversation with the board members after you left.

 

[born an eel]

MITS, I think his passion for the club is visible and have no problem with it. People do not run for the board and devote the time without passion for the club. There is no financial incentive in the position.

It is also well documented about him opening up his home etc to the players before he was on the voard.
