Back on page 172 of this thread, August 12th last year, after another loss to WCE and McGovern did a number on us again, this time in a different way, I cracked the shits and I wrote that the best way to get rid of Ken and not pay him out for 3 years is that the board bans him from selection committee when we play West Coast, because he doesn't have the brain power to handle McGovern, WCE and Simpson. I said that should piss him off enough to grab Donna and the kids and walk.
It would require balls of steel from Koch, KT and Chris Davies to do that because Hinkley would run to his media mates and they would launch a blitzkrieg of negativity at us, so it ain't going to happen unless a few people get a good hit to the head, and forget how weak they are under pressure.
Totally agree REH - given that we can't legitimately fire Hinkley without financially crippling the club the next best option for the club [and by extension its members] is to make his position so uncomfortable and untenable that he chooses to voluntarily step down. Alternatively, as others have suggested "elevate" him to a role of "Director of Coaching" or "Assistant Vice-President in Charge of Door Mats and Toilet Rolls" and allow someone else to take over the Head Coach role.
