This needs to be quarantined off and it needs to be done now. The board needs to get together and arrange an external investigation to get to the bottom of the ongoing problems. Then when the recommendations are at hand, if any member of staff have acted way out of step, they are told they are sacked. What has gone on this year has been awful and it must not spill along any further. I used to think Fagan was on top of things but boy o boy, standards have slipped under his watch.
Yep this. This has now got completely out of control and its time to call it as it is. And the starting point was not the camp, but the lack of due diligence and professionalism around the Burton and Hass appointments and then the appointment of CM. I can't tell you how angry I am. Even in the small businesses I support they would never tolerate this sort of rubbish processes and decision-making. And while it has its faults, people in government and other industries lose their jobs for far less.
Its time for not one, but three things to happen. One, an external investigation into the CM/Camp and two, an external review of corporate processes and culture within the Club and three, a complete review of the Board (what on earth have they been doing through all this??). What they seem to have forgotten is that this is a
member organisation. As such, the relatively free-wheeling decision-making that goes on in privately owned organisations cannot and must not happen here. The Board is accountable to us, the members, so the Board is not immune from accountability and review. IMO the Club is now bordering on serious misleading of its members - which, if true, IMO is serious professional misconduct.
It's time to get the big boys in (Deloittes, EY or similar) and turn over every.last.rock. Every.last.one.of.them.
