James Hird gone, presser at 3:15 today - The Age

[Belnakor]

Umm, didn't they say at the start of it all that James walked of his own accord??

you don't pay someone 750k if they walk of their own accord

 

[Dusky]

Has he been on the Melanotan II again?

Nah, his missus has just been hogging the tan lotion again.

 

[Ancient Tiger]

confidentiality agreement

Correct. Would be part of the payout.

He and The Weapon should be dining out tonight at the Vue de Monde talking about how keeping quiet can be so profitable!!!

 

[PieBeast]

Sad sad for the Football community, Hirdy was awesome at providing the lulz and taking the spotlight of us

Oh yes you do, we will find out soon enough.
They paid Robinson out also, haven't heard a peep from him since.

That goes with the big payout. Geez I would have loved a big payout every time I resigned from a job.

 

[Belnakor]

One of the worst coaches, and he still had it in him to say "In my view, I'm still a good coach". Get over yourself Hird, you've ruined your legacy and the Essendon Football Club, just vanish now.

In Hird's eyes he probably thinks he could still play at the highest level

At least the truth finally came out, he can't coach, that''s what he's been referring to all along, yes?

 

[LongBomb]

Got to hand it to him, he really screwed every last cent out of the club.
3 x seasons pay for 20 games. Now that is ROI his French business school would be proud of.

r*ped by the Media

I have never been more embarrased to be an AFL supporter and the celebration type atmosphere in here is sickening.

James Hird will always be a Legend of the game and was also a good coach until he was led down a path by a decieptful and dodgy human in Stephen Dank.
The media is too scared to go after Dank after he threatens to slap defamation suits on them all so they go after Hird because he is the easiest and tallest target. I for one couldnt care less for the EFC or what happens to them now but I do care about human decency and no one reporting or commenting on this situation has had a skerrick of it. I hope you all enjoy your pound of flesh.

The 750 would be coaching salary , what about the legal fees he needs to cough up , kaching

Sanity prevails.

So what did you think about the derby?

Couldnt care less, one game in a long season. If you knock us out in September might be a different story.

Seems like a legit thing a Freo supporter would say.

Would it be scary if you employed someone and they stuffed up only to have everyone blame you for it.

Whats being a Freo supporter got to do with it.

Just one the size of Hird's payout would do me.

Coaches coach football teams, they are supposed to win games or at least be competitive.

Good to see Robbo gave you a like.

Nothing. Nothing at all. Kudos to you for your sincere beliefs which I'm sure have nothing to do with any pre-existing affection for Hird distorting your view of events.

Kudos.

 

[Wundo]

the quality of the man is shown by his willingness to fall on his sword to let the club recuperate. You can't fault that, just selfless. Champion to the end.

You don't actually believe that, do you?? I need my sarcasm detector checked, apparently.

You're right Hirds fear of litigation has made him a soft target.
