Universal Love Keith Thomas

[Lockhart Road]

Our great legendary Bob McLean, Port general manager from 1949 to 1980 and chairman from 1983 to 1989, also first played for Norwood. Big Bob is in the Australian Hall of Fame.
KT is admirably following in his big footsteps.

Absolutely agree: the Best among the Best have historically moved from Norwood across town to PAFC and become the Secretary or General Manager or Chairman... or CEO... and have served / are serving the Club most rewardingly ...

Then you get the other kind who move from Norwood High School, take the wrong turn on Tapleys Hill Road and end up in Hong Kong instead of Alberton and become PAFC Ambassador Acting Unpaid.

Duhhh...!

Neil Craig & Bruce Winter went to Norwood High and they both ended up on the dark side with the enemy. Fortunately Big Bob and KT joined the good guys and entered the Force.

Rexie J. is thus exceptional. He went to Norwood High and entered the Force.

Nice joke!

Who is joking?

 

[finbarr]

lol I wonder how the CEOs treated Trigg while they were away on the junket.

Twiggy No Friends.

He didn't get an invite.

 

[Steven Gerrard]

If KT can pull off this proposal without a hitch it will be a stroke of genius. Pinching myself.

For those of you old enough to be following Port in 1984, who would have thought we would have so much man love for a man who starred for the sworn enemy in the 84 grand final, winning the JO Medal. I still have nightmares about that game. He even made Norwood's team of the century. He is a Norwood legend.

And now here is being a Port Adelaide legend.

**** I love this club. I ****ing love this club.

 

[Ebert80]

Yep.

He is a legend. I cannot believe his passion for the PAFC, given who he played for.

I keep thinking "he can't be genuine" in his passion for the PAFC, but he was seemingly converted back as a Port Adelaide man immediately upon taking up the position.

Gun!

I assume you don't really mean that Trigg is a better CEO than Thomas.

 

[Power Raid]

to think quite a few of us has concerns given he was a redlegs man

 

[finbarr]

He's good, but he ain't no Steven Trigg.

 

[Phhht]

I assume you don't really mean that Trigg is a better CEO than Thomas.

Of course I do

if we arent careful all this ridicule will get out and they may get rid of him. That would be bad.

 

[Janus]

He's good, but he ain't no Steven Trigg.

You can really see the contempt and disdain he has for the great unwashed in that picture. In his mind he's thinking "Don't touch me with your filthy, disease ridden hands, you geriatric."

 

[Chad Lover]

Agree Thomas certainly is no Triggy - Thomas is, amongst other things, yet to cost his club 2 first round draft picks and 2 second round draft picks, has not yet ensured that nothing is received in return for the loss of the club's highest paid and arguably most important player, and has also not yet lied to the club's membership base (and possible even the club's board) over and over for some time including when questioned directly on the relevant issue.

I loved it when Kochie said (with reference to Hird) that a football club should be like any other business or company in that when a person in power makes a terrible error (or more) the business or company gets rid of them and they are replaced. If Thomas did what Triggy did or something similar (however unlikely that seems), our Board would sack him.

I am glad the Crows kept him on though after the 6 month ban, because it will continue to hurt them.

 

[Phhht]

Hush now, not too loud!

 

[Stromageddon]

Thread needs to be renamed "Keith F***ing Thomas" so it matches the "Oliver F***ing Wines" and "Chad F***ing Wingard" threads.

I know it's unfair and we love him now, but read the opening pages of this thread for a bit of a laugh at a few of our expenses.

Ahahaha, glad I kept my nose out of that one!

 

[Schulzenfest]

That gopower guy was such a flog. I'm so glad he doesn't post here anymore. I KT

 

[rumoursofwinter]

Fearful looking back, I like this part of my only post;

I just can't accept that he is small enough to be a stooge for those $$^%ers. The guy has has too much cred in his playing career and CV to be a sanfl hick stooge patsy.
