That's what they want.  A board spill and for members to vote.  Best outcome.  If current board dig their heels in it'll go to egm.

Harry,

Just read some of the media reports, you point above is clearly incorrect

They want a spill but they don't want an election, they want a transition

Quote
Dr Hiscock, who would be Richmond president if the challenge is successful, said on Monday that they would force an extraordinary general meeting if a peaceful transition did not happen, with signatures from "many of the club's greats".

"Make no mistake, this challenge is the real deal. There is a fighting fury amongst us," Dr Hiscock said at a media conference at Leo Berry’s Gym in Richmond.

"The Richmond Football Club is in crisis. Never has a year promised so much yet delivered so little.

"Whilst the current board has seen fit to fire numerous staff members, it remains self-satisfied and continues to endorse its own performance.

"We are asking the Richmond Football Club board to stand down forthwith. Let's make this a seamless transition. Let's do it with dignity and let's avoid an EGM."

So yet again under this plan we don't get a say or our voices heard  :banghead :banghead

Are we going to get a reason WP? Or are you just going to continue to whine how much you don't like him without telling us why?

Already have see previous post.
No you didn't.

yes I did

Here you go



Not the first time Phil has tired to get (buy) himself onto the board as you know Jack. Hence why I will not vote for him



Can I make it any clearer???

Throw in I have met him, know him and have seen him trying to do deals to get on the board first hand; then he doesn't get my vote.

Again can I make it any clearer???

But going by what this alternative are wanting; in their collective eyes we the members shouldn't get a say, they aren't prepared to face a vote

how do we vote?

Currently there is no vote torch

And if the new ticket gets their way there will not be a vote

Yeah he does

So what's your point?

That's enough of a reason for him become a director?

Question for you

Have you met him? Spoken to him?

when are these idiots going to realise there is no one person who is going to fix this poo.



Surely if all the problems lay at the feet of one person, ie peggy, then wouldnt that mean that all the the solutions could be found by one person?

But, I do think the first thing we need to do is have the constitution changed so the president can not make all these decisions on their own, as peggy has been doing. It needs to be a majority of the board, not one person as we have been seeing, otherwise, what is even the point of having a board?

This is even more pertinent when that person is a woman and she can make all these decision on her own, ignoring what the men want.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

glad you can finally see it. Its a mans job and this peggy and her girlfriend benny fail have proven they are hopeless in decision making.

get rid of the 2 and the master tactician in dimwit and the board may just be successful.

Currently a member of the Roupies, and employed by the great man Roup.

This challenge seems half arsed to me. Who says they want Balme without talking to him first? Idiots that's who. They lost my support with stupid statements and the lack of a call for a vote. Stuff em.
