Certified Legendary Thread Chapman, Roo, Fagan all of board must announce they will depart end of year.

[jackster83]

Agree to disagree on that one.

I thought he was good for a while, but he seemed to completely lose interest after the 2017 GF. Goes for months without being seen during the season. Think he's been trying to land another gig for a while.

Probably yeah, I just hope we are proactive finding a replacement.

 

[Vhaluus]

He's protecting a circa $1m/year gig whereas the other 2 self appoint themselves into their voluntary roles. His reputation and future employment opportunities are being trashed. My money is on him wanting it fixed for his own needs whereas the other 2 were happy to back in Burton because AFC is basically a hobby.

Let's not be naive, Chapman and Roo man not directly drawing a salary from the club but they absolutely have their snouts in the trough. They have a vested interest in keeping their positions for the other money that gets funneled their way because of those positions.

Sort of.

Neither would benefit in their working lives from being on the AFC board.

Problem is that the group that picks the next CEO is the board. Which has Chapman I at the reigns currently, Chapman II coming in and a bunch of yes men who have shown they aren't willing to stand up and demand we actually have a proper selection process for the next chairman.

No it doesn't, Chappy is done as is Hazel.

You don't think Roo gets more media opportunities because of his board position?

Because he sure as hell isn't there for his 1)humor 2)strategic insight 3)charisma

.. did you see who they are appointing as next Chairman? A corrupt politician.

He's there because he's Roo, one of the finest footballers SA has produced.

 

[hey shorty]

Hmmmm yes I did and that is deeply concerning, though coming from Rooch I'm not convinced that is happening yet.

Agree to disagree.

Yes he'd be around a bit even if he wasn't involved with the AFC anymore, but he absolutely gets more appearances and more money per appearance because of his position within the club IMO.

 

[Vhaluus]

I don't trust Rooch but I trust our board even less. I do HOPE it is wrong though, if we have a reputable chairman leading the search for a CEO I'll feel much better.

Footballers get media gigs now more than ever, and I'm pretty sure he's been at Triple M longer.

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

On Triple M podcast it was put to Roo that Olsen was going to be chair and he didn’t deny it.

Roo is hopeless, who knows either way.

 

[Deaneus!]

But being more attune than Roo/Chappy is not an impressive feat.

great line

Sort of.

have we collectively forgotten Chateau Roo?

... which one?

 

[ad victoriam]

Follow my logic and tell me where I'm falling down:


Fagan says he'll put together best off-field team ever

We hire a potato farm

We end up with a wooden spoon

People question Fagan's truthfullness

Now, Chapman is leaving

Suddenly we hire Burns

...was Fagan constrainted financially by Chapman in spending on staff?

You should Add-in now Hazel and Chapman are leaving

 

[1970crow]

reckon Hazel has been balls deep in our s**t show. And has completely escaped deserved scrutiny.

Fagan couldn't promise the best football department given he has no idea what it looks like & was relying on others who also had no idea....

Has a fair idea what it doesn't look like now.

It'll be a fair while before we see a less credentialed group than what we put together for 2020. If ever.

macca23 can't stand him... from direct experience I believe.

I know a couple of people with similar, if a little stronger opinions.
