If they think members will just accept this without explanation they're in for a shock

Not renewing is the only voice you have.
Do you mean that we should treat them like a loyal team member, bit harsh don’t you think?

When members have lost hope, that's when you know the club has failed.
I think the only way most members will renew is if they see incompetent people at the board and football department level are held to account for this mess.
There's never been a better time for a fresh start. Change of President and Coach needs to be demanded by the supporter base.
What do supporters have to look forward to next year if nothing changes. We need hope.

Please don’t renew,it’s the only way things will ever change. After today it’s the only thing that might change things
But he didn't even do that! Unless Stephenson is lying.

We all know Ed will give Bucks a contract extention next year, and the reason will be that Ed will say that Bucks deserves first crack at a mini rebuild

I'm not renewing. It's the first time I've been really disappointed in the club in my 40 odd year of a fan and member.

This club desperately needs a revolution from the top down - Ed and Co won't go voluntarily.
Cancelling your membership is the only voice you have - use it.

I don't need to go through it all to make an argument. We just traded our most promising youngster, Stephenson, for a 2nd rounder. The competitions best accumulator, Treloar, for the equivalent of a 2nd rounder, and Tom Phillips for a 4th rounder....
It was list management, so incompetent that its never been seen before, that lead us to this point...
This is an absolute catastrophic failure at many levels of management at the Pies. Why did an untried list manager get given the keys to the Pies? Who hired him? Why do we find ourselves in this unprecedented position at flogging off some of our best players for nothing because we've incompetently managed the salary cap?
In my humble opinion, Ned Guy getting the sack isn't sufficient, those involved in hiring him and overseeing the show that has lead to this point are equally culpable, I'm looking at you Eddie, but that's just a personal opinion...
I have no doubt that all this will be swept under the rug, and spun to the degree that nothing much changes and we as supporters, members and owners of the club are left unable to impart any sort of influence or oversight to the shitshow that we are all watching and cringing at.
So, put plainly, how can we as a group of owners of the club, exert our ownership? How do we show our dissatisfaction? How do we make things better?
We cannot stand for this abject incompetence, and in my view nothing but a clean out, starting at the top, will assuage the anger I'm currently feeling towards Collingwood.

Cancelled
Reasonable evidence the Club is poorly managed on several fronts. The Board is accountable - they should get monthly reports. If they cannot determine that the managers they have appointed are not up to the job, then clearly the Board is not up to their job.
Clean the lot out.

Already canceled mine last week.
The only thing you can do really is show them through your wallet. at the end of the day that's the only way the club runs.

Sorry, I now realise that my other thread did indeed get posted and I've doubled up.
I think in the server meltdown at the end of trade week delayed the posting of my original thread and I thought that it disappeared.
Mods please merge threads or delete this one.

Maybe that's what needs to happen.
How do we go about instituting that change, rather than just winging amongst ourselves?
Practical and actionable solutions are what we need IMO.

It's a good question. The membership have to get someone to stand for a position on the board at the next election..... which will give a voice on how the football department is run...
however in the last 20 years, the membership has been too gutless or too wimpish to stand up to the president. So someone has to be found ...
The most legal way? Cancel your membership, probably. If The Hot Breakfast wasn’t finishing up, you could ring up every time they have a call in and just abuse Eddie.
