Opinion Sack Hinkley 6 - Kochblocked

[Coobk001]

Just remember when someone says "what else can Ken do, let's support him"

That we are officially the most patient club of ALL TIME with regards to an unsuccessful coach.

If we aren't supposed to expect change now, at a time when we've gone well past the tolerance and patience of any other club in history, then when are we supposed to expect change?



#StabilityEqualsMediocrity.

Was this shown on the news....???

yes, thats why its a meme

 

[Ilias M]

TJ: Ken has been enormous in supporting me since the day he’s arrived. His expectations are particularly high of the group. There’s not a day of the week he doesn’t expect the highest of you and he has driven us all in that space


Yep a decade under Ken leadership you laugh when we fail. Mediocrity is now accepted at PAFC

When they start trundling out the players to sing Hinkley's praises you know the end is nigh.

We've been the most patient fan base in AFL history as all stats show. It's only really recently that the not attending games has kicked in, and that is only because we've had no other option to voice protest. He's gotten a very, very good ride from a supporter base that expects success. No one could possibly say he is hard done by. It's long past time, and the supporters are very much entitled to call for change. Hell, people could have been saying sack hinkley in 16 and it would have been relatively justified. It's now 2022.

All good things come to an end Hinkley, Richo, Koch, Davies et. al. Let it go, and let us all move on.

i like that his nickname is now officially donuts.

 

[GremioPower]

Reading this thread makes me want Ken to succeed.

You’re all losers

I would love to see him succeed. He could go with a flag at the end of this year. It would be just fine for me…

I can imagine his reaction if they don't. Getting Butters to apologise to him would be the model.

Also, TJ is in the dishlicker syndicate, isn't he?

Current news

Hinkley has a contract as senior coach for port adelaide afl 2023.
He says categorically that he has a contract 2023
The chairman, ceo and others have said he has a contract for 2023

Other than above is supposition ill informed, incorrect, conjecture, inaccurate etc.
Picture, cartoons, statistics, videos, diagrams, repeat messaging, images etc cannot change the current situation as per the first 3 lines.

I have enjoyed having a laugh at Ken's expense the past few days.

Top notch work on the sticker

 

[Alberton Proud]

Regardless of who replaces ol' donuts, the playing group are in for the rudest of rude shocks

 

[philreich]

Hinkley on 9 news saying he has a contract for next year.

Yeah but the fans don't - if Hinkley ain't gone soon, next year's membership numbers will plummet.

2 words changes that.... "Your sacked"

Contract don't mean shit.

It's weird that he gets such a boner from Hinkley's contract.

He's like poor people who vote Tory.

there's a bigger sport in backing ken in than there is supporting the club and wanting them to actually succeed.

the lack of success has made backing ken and supporting the club mutually exclusive.

 

[Del165198]

Imagine supporting a coach instead of a football club. It's like being a scomo fan while he drove the country into the ground

 

[TazD]

Seriously, where the hell is his finals clause?

 

[PatientMental]

Imagine supporting a coach instead of a football club. It's like being a scomo fan while he drove the country into the ground

and arguing that his replacement in albo is gonna do a worse job.

like it is possible.

 

[MrPlow]

Hinkley doesn’t deserve to coach another game played in the prison bars.

Sack him now.

I reckon if I went down the back shed and looked hard enough for it, I think I still might have a hypercolour t-shirt a well meaning, but clueless, relative gave me for Christmas in 1985. Doesn't mean I'll be wearing it.

 

[MrPlow]

Lol what do we think Charlie’s IQ would be? Seriously though…

 

[VineValerian]

I’m actually amazed with this whole crossed the line narrative. A sticker has become a breaking point of a situation that’s been allowed to continue due to factors within the club, not members or supporters. And instead of acknowledging it and then, in a good hearted manner similar to what macca19 suggested, brushing it off, it’s like it’s hit a raw nerve and they’ve taken some faux offence to it.

I can just imagine Fos, Jack, Russell, Bobby Quinn, et al venting anger at supporters and calling them "weak" for a stunt like that poster..............not!

They have "owned" embarrassing losses when coaching in the past, none of them even in the same postcode as the current incumbent in terms of losing "big" games (such as finals, games against top sides, etc), and ultimately delivering zero success over a prolonged period.

They lose badly - they admit their part in it, even if surrounded on either side of the timeline by success, after success, after success.

Case in point - Jack admitted after losing to Sturt in 1976 it was his fault (at least in part), and vowed to be better. And he was!!!!!

Ken (and yes I wanted him to be a success from day 1 - but he has never shown himself to be a winner - bottom line, long term failure, so hasta lavista baby) - gets a tiny bit of flack - it's weak, it's poor, I'm not the problem here

Our club is in a state of inertia and is stale.
We need some rejuvenation.
A fresh start.
Make the change.

Hallelujah! Holy ***t!
