B grade

Well to be honest i still stand by my comments, if Balraj is there or not.
He is still in two minds at the moment and has a contract with APW so hopefully he sticks to it, everyone at the club still wants him there, if he does decide to leave though i'm still very confident we will be very competitive with all top sides.....3 late recruits will be very handy!!

as a coach it might be best you keep your thoughts & and what is happening at APW in house, i know many at APW wish you would also.

Don't try that with me i never bought the subjest up, someone said it had been on the clearences....So i will say what i like when i like, if someone at apw has a problem i'm sure they would mention it to my face, not to you. We are men here not little school boys.

I think some people forget we are playing local B grade footy, worry about what's going on in our real lives not what's people are talking about on big footy.....

there are many faint hearts who post on here and hide behind an alias. Let your football ability talk for you and ensure you give your all for APW and help them to a successful season. I would also think common sense will prevail and Singhy will be at training next week. all the best and hope you have a great year.

Why would he be wanting to leave so late Rock?

Maybe he found out they pay for home & away footy only and not thru the finals

 

[Eagle One]

pretty sure that common sense will prevail in this case.
actions tell the story not this thread
Singhe will understand his position and forfill his obligation and top the goal kicking with Clake 10 goals behind him and an Airport West flag will be
in reach finishing in the top 3 spots with Pacco and Glenroy
let the games begin

Juggling I think you just dropped one of your balls!

got to love the mercenary!!!!!

APW should make him honour his contract and not clear him otherwise make him sit out the year

There is alot of them around isnt there.

they have to make the finals first...

You are a ******** mate. Current tulla coach very happy where he is and happy to be working with a great bunch of blokes and some quality under 18s. i can assure you that no effort was made to return to Glenroy and i doubt there ever will be. I am tipping the players that have left tulla are more to do with the past regime than the new one.

abuse is not the answer.the facts stand.the bloke did not put in for the glenroy job.left the club in the lerch. Still has not contacted the gfc to let them know of his intentions ..applied for two other positions and took what he thought was the plum job...over 20 blokes said goodbye to there club and he now is finding it a little tough..from what i know i believe he is a little upset with his decision making and so are tulla...only the facts please..and if any of these comments are not fact please let me know...i have been told that hes not a bad coach but is an ordinary person

now that careyagain has had a week to reply to the FACTS and there has been NO reply we now all now know the FACTS. exactly as it should be at all clubs---THE CLUB WAS GREATER THAN THE INDIVIDUAL

Let me clear this up once and for all. This is Ashley Manning. I did not want to leave Glenroy, some of my best friends are on the committee there and played there. Last year was a bit of a debacle, all of the club from the coach to the committee tried our arses off to recruit but unfortunately we could not keep or attract players for the money we were prepared to spend. Some of the committee didnt like the fact that i criticised the President for spending most of his time focused on the new rooms rather than helping with player retention and recruiting. By the way the pres has done a great job getting the rooms up and running but from a coaches selfish perspective i felt we should have been focusing on keeping our players and trying to stay in A grade. The club told me they were advertising my position which i was not happy about. If a club tells you that, it is pretty clear your time is limited. I was going to apply for the Glenroy job but i also applied for other positions. Glenroys applications closed 3 weeks after everybody elses. Luckily for me Tulla offered me the job for 2010, i rang Glenroy to tell them and they never returned my call. I am very happy to be at Tulla and i am looking forward to a great season. I have some great memories off Glenroy and i have met some great friends. I have been playing assistant coach at Glenroy( 3 years), reserves coach, senior coach (3 years), premiership player and premiership coach. So i feel a bit let down that i had to reapply for my job but thats why clubs have committees to make the tough decisions. I notice Glenroy have taken some of what i said on board and many people have contributed to recruiting this year and they have done a great job in recruiting and keeping some of their top players. Guys like Dulic, General, Gordy, Smitty the Westgarths etc are great club people and with the addition of Kite, campbell and co i am sure they will be right up the top this year. I wish the Glenroy footy club poeple good luck this year and hopefully the rest of you can find something else to talk about.

Good evening Ash Manning (if this is really you).

I think you should be commended on your honesty on a public forum and setting a few things straight...!

I follow the EDFL regularly, mainly A Grade but do keep an eye on B Grade as well.This is my first post after reading Big footy for the last few weeks. Wasn't planning on posting but thought a few questions have to be asked?

If this is actually Ash Manning then the biggest concern is how you have opened yourself up to the entire EDFL?

Not in the above post but in reading all your previous posts you may have some explaining to do.

Your post on Hadfield a while back was disappointing and claiming you aren't racist at the start of the post I know has upset a lot of Hadfield people - they now have a name to the call sign??

The EDFL may even consider getting involved if they deem it necessary. The AFL are big on villification issues??

Also, posting a comment about yourself not receiving credit for a GF win and comparing yourself to Mick MCGuane.......please???

Post about Glenroy players turning their back on the club, having a crack at ex Tulla players.......not good form?

I just hope that this isn't you because if it is, well it's a little disappointing....?

Good luck for the season - you are a premiership coach so the challenge at Tulla is going to be a good one.

All the best!

Fair enough post. Ash was worried people might think that. Yesterday was his post but on my account. He is a mate of mine but cant be arsed making an account. He just wanted to clear a few things up.
