Yeah, nah.
Keep our members/supporters. Keep our head coach. You want to do both, but you can only do one.
We're so far past the point of having the luxury to choose what we want to do. It's time for the club to do what it needs to do.
Sack Hinkley.

"I'm sorry you’re not happy, but we'll continue to ignore you and what you really want whilst saying you're important". That's how I read it.

For me, it's MUCH more than about winning games! They have moved away from what is the heart of this club - Connecting with members & supporters. Disrespecting the views of members by publicly putting them down. The dreadful Co-Captain decision, and the terrible way it was handled. The selections. The bungling of the China endeavor. Constant hypocrisy from the coach. And more ...
If we were in the same position win/loss wise, but the club had the same engagement with me as they had in 2013/14, I would still be 100% behind them. But from Koche down, they have lost me!

It was a good email until he dropped the ‘stay tuned!’
Time will tell.
What should happen is a resolution that certain traditions are enshrined in the constitution and can only be changed by a 80% vote of the members.
This should include 1 captain wearing the #1, the Creed, existing to win premierships and fighting for the prison bars no matter what.
P.s. come out in support of #bringbackthebars you campaigners.

Yep and the ‘Norwood flog’ must read BF.
It was one of his better ones and definitely written by him. It is sounding like the club’s hands might be tied re Ken, arghhhh
B b but he carried a bag of ice
And complained about the s**t stadium deal he signed
Cya mate.

Yes. It started well, was going well. Then it died away, leaving acres of fertile ground uncultivated.
Ford Fairlane said KT was not looking in great shape post match in the Magarey Room ?

Let me tell you if we were sitting 2 games clear on the top of the ladder and smashing teams there would not be any of this dissatisfaction.

Coming out and getting rid of co-captains would be a good start.
Seeing our young kpf develop rather than rot in the sanfl while Hinkley persists with the most ridiculous forward setup imaginable would also be a good start.
But KT can’t do either of these things so I’m not sure what the point is.

That's what I'm saying, although I meant to say their heads are in the sand. They're delusional if they think our inconsistency is down to youth
Just got the email, head in the sand still.

He didn't look well. And as soon as the last interview was done he was gone.
Sure reads like the first 1/3 and the last 2/3 were different emails jammed together, and the bit about Ken being sacked/stepping aside, where the first email was heading, was omitted from the final version.

Hopefully for a T-bone medium-rare and a couple of glasses of red.

In fact I'd say that if you removed "So stay tuned" and "See you at the footy!" that email would have been excellent.
Stop trying to fluff us KT.
Own it. Fix it.
We'll love you for it.
