The FTF question and the last one I was curious about but sadly the questions wered dodged.
I shouldnt have bothered to read this and it just further lowers my faith.

The FTF question was mine

And I was disappointed with the answer because it doesn't actually address the question

Oh well

Give her a break will you all
Can't do the ironing and be on the internet at the same time .lol ;)

Not even close  to being funny jack


You know I am joking

Yeah I know you were but that still doesn't make it funny.

Thats a pretty disapointing comment.

i think ive been pretty clear to everyone of late when it comes to cheap shots and language at others expense.

you either tone it down or be prepared to deal with the consequences.

I think Peggy needs to have a different approach in answering questions of supporters compared to journalists.
The answers are fairly naff and almost a little insulting.
Be more informative Peg or don't bother!
Seriously it's all crap and spin, coulda guessed every single response. No wonder I never bother.
Rather they be honest and me not like it than spin standardised management knapp it's so false it makes me sick.....f off

The answer to HRT's question about the strategic plan is rubbish.

So because goals are ambitious it is ok to fail miserably at achieving them?

Pathetic, spineless crap that would only be tolerated in an inferior organisation.

No organisation ever sets a goal it doesn't think can be achieved.

The fact is they have failed by their own standards and unless that is confronted and dealt with they are doomed to repeat the cycle.

And their bombs and their guns.

Set the bar high enough and even modest gains through incidental factors can be sold to the great unwashed

the one i would have liked to see a follow question to was when she said the board is confident hardwick is the man for the job. i would have asked straight away who advised the bord on this and are there independent judges assesing the decisions the board makes.

Half those lurking would be journalists looking for a cheap headline.

I really don't know why they bother with these things.

What?

Companies don't have outside independent judges to assess board decision.

That responsibility falls to the shareholders or in the case of a footy club the members. They are the judges and can do something about it if the majority chooses.

The members elect the majority of the board and accordingly charge them with making decisions regarding how the company run. The board pus in place the management structure etc and makes those appointments

If you can't answer a question properly, wait until the AGM and face the music but be prepared because you wont get it sso easy.
Besides, why would journos bother? They must know these things are a useless source of information.
