Popular Post The Beast 9,467 Posted Monday at 16:58 Popular Post Share Posted Monday at 16:58 @Siam69 and others who have known me on here for a few years, will tell you that I'm the opposite of a Kingaling and I particularly despise his useful idiot henchman Chris Graham. But. I'd take Dave King and his entourage back in a heartbeat if it meant getting rid of the current bunch of clusterfuck clowns that's running the club right now. In particular useless pieces of shit like Park Jr being punted would be a result in itself.

DrLaudrup 5,064 Posted Monday at 17:14 Share Posted Monday at 17:14 I’m in favour of it. There is lots about King that has annoyed me over the years. His desire to be centre of attention, grandstanding etc. But he’s always stepped up when needed. I like that he’s recognised the issues of current poor governance and that investment is clearly needed. Our current board seem blind and incapable of seeing this. I also like that he’s been clear in seeing this as a limited period to sort these issues. That timeline makes it palatable for me.

rossco87 796 Posted Monday at 17:55 Share Posted Monday at 17:55 In an ideal world it would be a totally fresh board that comes in and takes us forward, however I think at present that is extremely unlikely given the mess the current board have made. To give him his due I think Bennett had probably recognised that we would need new leadership but with the way we have been run and the losses we had incurred over the last 3/4 years we weren’t exactly an attractive proposition. Trouble is I think he went about trying to rectify it in completely the wrong way. I have my reservations about King coming back, however if the alternative is us continuing to stumble along with the never ending cycle of fuck ups then I would be open to it.

chris182 6,525 Posted Monday at 19:14 Share Posted Monday at 19:14 I have a sneaky feeling that when King talks about introducing new investment he's leading a charge for this Fox character. It's no coincidence to me that their investment stories were ramped up recently. I don't want capitalists anywhere near our club. They'd want a return and therefore we'd be most likely be streamlined or asset stripped in order to return a profit. We're already in danger of being left behind the orks and this would seal it (without being too dramatic ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKirk 26,466 Posted Monday at 19:20 Share Posted Monday at 19:20 Without being to dramatic about this but see without fresh funding we are toast. King has said there is investor fatigue basically they are putting fuck all else in. If that is true how do we operate long term? Serious question.

Thing that's been suffocating us is poor squad management and a wage bill that's 3/4 of our turnover. nik2402, graeme_4, Blueshoff and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are downsizing in all areas. Our long term success plan is simply to hope they make a cunt of it and we have another 55 moment.
