male or female wish someone just changed the culture of that whole football club. March couldnt do it, peggy sue doesnt seem able to.
The bold bit I agree with
But with respect Angus, the current President has been in the job just on 6 months so I am not sure how she is supposed to change a culture in that time.
And please don't use Koch & Port (and he's done an outstanding job BTW) as an example because what Port needed and what we need are very different. Port were a basket case OFF fiekd but the facts are their recruiting, trading and FA targeting has been alot better than ours even when they were a basket case off the field. Their list was alot better than people gave it credit for. So what they needed was to get the coaching appointment right and get the off field stuff right. Off field is where Koch has been brillant getting them high profile sponsors. As for the coaching thing they got the right people (eg Tom Harley etc) to interview the candidates and then recommend to the board the preferred candidate.
As I said to Ramps, we don't know what's going on behind the scenes at the RFC. People are making assumptions based solely on the presons profile and them not doing their job via the media. Again you make an assumption she isn't ruthless but seriously how do you know? How do any of us know?
The current President's tenure will be defined and determined by how she leads us through this mess we currently find ourselves in and by what the end outcomes are and that is IMHO that we become a better, stronger club.
Telling us what we want to hear to appease us (the members) is not leadership, that is spin. Doing what needs to be done to get this club back to where it should be and restoring the members respect is real leadership.
That's what I want, not meaningless words
