Beat me to it tiger101

Interestingly none of the main news websites (HUN & Age) have anything about it  ;D

No Caro, Robbo exclusives

Clearly no-one cares  :rollin

Schwab stepping down isn't going to make them a 10 goal better side. At the moment the most important thing they need to improve is their on-field performances and it needs to happen quickly.

President is a complete idiot, should show himself out as well

Took ten minutes of questioning before Schwab could be pinned down enough to admit or accept any form of responsibility as the CEO

 ;D

What I meant was usually one of them tries to "break" the story

In this case the first web-site to go with the news that there was to be a presser was the AFL site, not our 2 major dailies  ;D

As I said no-one cares  :rollin

Peter Jackson to be Dees Interim CEO
« Reply #12 on: April 18, 2013, 01:29:35 PM »
The HUN is reporting that the Dees are about to announce Peter Jackson (former CEO of the Bombers) as their Interim CEO

Hmmm.... the cynic in me says this has headquarters prints all over it

No way the Dees could entice him on their own

 ;D

True, but he is a good operator, I reckon they could do a lot worse.

Absolutely agree Smokey, he will do more at the Dees in 3 months than Schwab did in 10 years  ;D

Jackson set up the Bombers off field to be the financial powerhouse they are today; so no doubting his credentials

Just reckon the headquarters had to be involved in getting him there that's all
