First time in a very long time that a high-profile Collingwood supporter has had a crack at him. Eddie’s response will be an interesting insight into how he’d handle a board challenge.
“The Collingwood administration has lost the plot,” Galbally said.
“They seem to be lurching from one crisis to another. There is no governance to speak of at Collingwood.”
“You can be in charge of a club for far too long. It happened with Tommy Sherrin. It happened with John Elliott. There are plenty of other examples, and they all lose sight of what is going on and get consumed with the belief that the club is theirs.”
“They really need a new administration at Collingwood. Full stop,”
“Eddie needs to step down. He can’t stay there forever. He’s not there for life. And it’s not healthy for the club to have the same person serve in that role for as long as he has.”
“The presidency of the Collingwood Football Club carries with it enormous impramateur, right across the community – and it’s very hard to let go and give it away. But it’s time. The club has got to look to the future. It needs new ideas and a fresh approach.
“And that is not to say that Eddie hasn’t been a tremendous asset as president to the club.”
