These are the best emails and criticism I have ever read on these boards. Worded so well and 100% true. I have never been one to want to knock the Sharks in public but it has to be done.

For the Greater Good lads...

My e-mail for what it's worth:

-------------------------------------------------------------------
I wish I could be angry. I wish I could be disgusted. At least then I would feel like I care, but I am becoming completely apathetic towards the Sharks; my team.

As far as I'm concerned, I have no choice in the matter. The attitude of 'denial' by the Club, Coach and several under-performing "marquee" players at the Sharks has left me with no option.

It is a horrible thing to support the Sharks. It's an affliction. It's draining.

I hold little hope that the "powers that be" at the Club will tackle the problems that blind Freddy knows exist around the place.

I'll stand-by to read the stock-standard cliches that the Club and Coach will roll out through the media this week and no doubt my apathy will strengthen. Perhaps they will roll out one or two more favoured chest-nuts and may even convince themselves that things aren't so bad. They won't convince me. Not so long ago I would get angry when the Sharks did this; not any more. I'm over it.

To whom it may concern,

I’m quite certain that I’ll be labeled an “idiot” along with any other long suffering Sharks supporters who go out of their way to voice concern about the current state of the club; however, these concerns need to be aired.

At this point in time, more than any that I can remember, the Cronulla Sutherland Sharks are what I would consider to be not only an utter disappointment, but also an embarrassment.

All this in the year they were going to “do it for Sludge”. What a disgrace.

From where I sit the reason for this is the total lack of competence from the CEO down. Here are the facts:

• The club persists with coach who is totally out of his depth. When we had a coach that wanted to bring a “winning” culture to the club he was stabbed in the back and sacked, which in turn ended up costing the club even more.
• We have a halfback that is so far out of form and past his use by date that he would be lucky to get a start in park football, yet he seems to be impervious to any action. By that I mean he should have been dropped some time ago.
• Despite many players being lost to the club for 2007, recruitment has been minimal at best.

It seems to me that the board is happy to leave its head in the sand and accept mediocrity yet again. If I were one for conspiracy theories, I would think that the club is happy to be run down so that a merger or relocation is an easy sell to the supporters. Maybe this is already underway?

When will this embarrassment end?

Well a good start would be to remove an incompetent coach and an “untouchable” halfback whom has seen better days.

The board also has to go – Has Peter Gow served enough time on the sidelines to come back into the game now?

Regards,

Here is my effort:

How long can a club survive when they blatently bungle year after year and roll up to deliver more of the same, like fans should be grateful just to see them turn out? The tide is turning and the low attendance of the Penrith match is an indicator that fans have suffered enough.

There is seemingly little criticism coming from the media and it would appear than the club flies under the radar as little is expected of the Sharks every season. No wonder they hold their jobs down every year. Failure = reward at the club. From the CEO all the way down to the players.

Nice work if you can get it. See if the fans & sponsors want to part with the cash that lines the pockets of these imposters next year & beyond. I sense a sinking ship of the NRL. I would not be suprised to see the Sharks club go the way that North Sydney did.

Let's keep the momentum going on these slack bastards. They deserve every bit they get for their "hard earned".

Hey Zepplin, heard Ray read that, and I know alot of others did to. It was well written and got the message across. I hope the "fat cats upstairs" heard it too! Time for change!

2SM would have read a fair few out. 2GB probably wouldn't have if it wasn't one of their agendas. Keep sending them to 2SM for tomorrow. yoursay@talkinsport.com.

However if we really want to make things happen, we need to get an article in the Daily Tele again. All the talkback shows do is regurgitate what's in the paper, so if we get an article in the paper it will be big news.

ritchied@dailytelegraph.com.au
mascords@dailytelegraph.com.au
rothfieldp@dailytelegraph.com.au

etc. Fill in your journo of choice.

Is there a link to the Leader?
