I can't believe I am saying this but actually feel James Hird in this instance

What Sheedy did is disgraceful but to drag Hird into his explosion was pathetic

Just Sheedy being Sheedy

Sheeds was right, IF the club lied and said it was fully endorsed?

We know the bombers are a joke of a club, and good on him for putting it on record.

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

Actually Frankie, the reason what he did was disgraceful is the fact he has publicly spoken about what has gone on in a board meeting. He has undermined the Board and by extension the Club

Corporate governance 101, what gets said in the board room stays in the board room

Sheeds can't do that he should quit

Board also shouldn't lie.

There needs to be some integrity.

Maybe he should be running the place at least he was honest.

Hang on WP didn’t the board do the same thing.

Unanimous decision or fully endorsed. Same same. That basically tells everyone what they think went on during the meeting does it not.

I can reconcile those two points: it means Sheedy should go AND so should the rest of the board.

To a point, it was used as a statement to present a united board, something this rabble hasn't been for months.

Unanimous means all 7 voted in favour. Fully endorsed means after the vote the board endorsed the appointment. Some may same / same but they are slightly different. The vote would be recorded as part of the minutes of the meeting.

They release a statement that says "the board has voted 6 to 1 to appoint Brad Scott". What do you think the focus is going to be on?

Now Sheeds has spoken to Robbo of all people and said he will "support the coach that's been appointed".

Sheeds think he runs the EFC and the board will do what he wants when he wants because he gave Barham the vote he needed to become president. Sorry Kevin's stock standard of playing the messiah card failed this time

Turns out the person in charge of the CEO search - and the coach search - at @essendonfc was holidaying on the Iberian peninsula during both processes.

Essendon - the gift that keeps on giving :lol.


Essendon paid NFL powerbroker Michael Lombardi to assess its football department - but failed to ever formally present his findings to the club’s board, reports @SamLandsberger
