He did a good job but he also couldn't work with others, which ultimately made his position untenable.He obviously caused some of the tension that lead to him being sacked but it still should never have happened. What a way to thank a bloke who did what he did for the club - to tell him we're worried you're going to sabotage the upcoming draft/trade period.
Didn't work out well for Liddle either as he spent all his good will with the supporters (and board) in one shot. Made him the most sackable CEO in history - didn't last 12 months.
The whole thing was pathetic.
It likely could have been navigated more effectively but not without SOS himself buying into it.
