Watson to Hird: Don't come back in 2014.

[I Rock]

I do have to agree with you on that.

Richmond the OWNER of position number 9 for many years finally makes the finals in a good position only to lose to (bum handed too by) a team who finished 9th before the penaltys were handed down.

I did enjoy that weekend

Ha Melbourne Demons.....

 

[DeGen]

Correct, lets not lose focus on what is really important.

Yeah, c'mon guys. We're like the Justice League teaming up to fight evil. Sure some of us are Aquaman and some of us Superman, but we all need to play our part.

As a result of ongoing inaccurate and mischievous reporting by Fairfax Media the Essendon Football Club Board wishes to re-confirm its position relating to James Hird.

The Board is unanimous in its support of James and the strategy in place relating to his return to the Club. To suggest the Board is split in its support for James is simply not true.

Given the testing time our Club has been through over the past two years, the Board is immensely proud of the resilience of our players, coaches, staff and supporters and have no doubt that the ongoing loyalty of everyone at Essendon will continue to galvanise our Club.

We are united as a Club and the Essendon Board will continue to make decisions in the best interest of our players, staff and members

Full support of the board. Vale Hirdy

What a surprise, Caro found out to be telling porkies again in her one-animal quest to get Hird.

More porkies

I cant believe after 11 months the board are disunited.they have had enough time for all parties to agree and get on with 2014.There is no way 3 members are NOW against anything.
This is newspaper krap we are reading about.

 

[kfc1]

Don't come back, EEEEEVVVVVVEEEEERRRRRRR!!!!

Over to the screaming denialists:
http://m.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news...f-essendon-directors-20140728-zxuvj.html#poll

FAIL. See post #785

And he did the doorstop where he said he "definitely" wanted to be coaching asap. Just what Little and the board wanted to hear.
As usual Hird was forcing their hand from a public forum.
As usual it's "me, Me ME".

FAIL. See post #787

 

[kfc1]

Not because he was burned out.

The AFL forcibly retired him due to third strike

If it's anything like Richmonds full support of their coaches...

 

[Silvagnis]

If Hird is sacked, it will be due to your own incompetence.

 

[kfc1]

My incompetence? That's flattering but I don't think I have that much influence

 

[Geoff Heywood]

If the board backs someone, it is code for you are about to get sacked.

If there was no substance to the claims of dis-unity, a club wouldn't have given it any oxygen by releasing a PR response.

Yep, I thought 35 SCNs looked bad for Hird, but now he has the full backing of the board. Can't get much worse. His end is nigh, methinks.

 

[I Rock]

If it's anything like Richmonds full support of their coaches...

Um...Essendon three coaches since 2010. Richmond one. In fact since 2000 only one Richmond Senior Coach has not seen out his full contract.

There is a new SCN now?

Its a shame they didn't come out with a strong statement against the news limited journalist (slobbo) who stated the following in his article last week:

PAUL Little and his band of Bombers board members — some of whom escaped penalties over governance when it was their role to govern — have effectively extended James Hird’s suspension.
Hird’s own club has cast him aside and, for the first time, you have to wonder if he will be cast aside for good.

This is a kneejerk decision and Little has given an appalling explanation of why.

 

[kfc1]

Probably explains why Richmond are so successful
