Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 12 - Finals Are Scary

[dirty2]

**** Hinkley and the happy clappers

 

[HaroldOliver]

Here's an idea. How about Port giving Ken a crack at another club? You know a club without a 'shit list'. His 'expert' supporters in the AFL media can put a list of potential new clubs dying to employ this 'coaching genius' together in no time flat, surely?
Do Ken a favour, sack Hinkley!

So we have what 48 hours now until we know if he is staying or going?

Probably closer to a week. Could happen today, could happen next week.

Currently, he’s staying.

It would always be difficult. If Davies had gone, the odds of him leaving would be higher. Now, I think we need a miracle.

A week!?

We all need to pray then..

 

[Enviable Tradition]

If he's gone I'd expect the club to be very tight lipped until everyone has been told and any contractual obligations sorted.

Hearing nothing right now is probably a good thing.

If the footy committee has decided he is staying I'm sure that will leak out sooner rather than later.

What other set of supporters would have to endure the indignity of hearing their coach go on radio and give a desperate sales pitch to keep his job?

This club really does revel in making us eat shite don’t they.

My fear he stays

I want ta help ta club!

Oh yeah campaigner? Then do it for free

There is nothing more absurd than the whole "people said I couldn't do it but I'm a fighter" stuff....

People said you couldn't do it and then you didn't do it. 12 full seasons as a coach and 9 seasons as a player your doubters have been proven correct.

Well I have good relationships with these people. And in many ways I'm seen as an advisor to bounce ideas off. They value my input and opinion, and I know when to keep my mouth shut without having to be told as such. Absolute nothing that I say on here can be linked to a single individual. The information is generic, but I hope it gives people a bit of an understanding as to the Club's thinking. People are welcome to take it at whatever value they deem it.



This, this, this! Thank you.

Anyways, at this current rate I look forward to this thread reaching it's 13th iteration most likely over the upcoming weekend. Have a good night.

When you say upcoming weekend, I take that as Ken will still be here even after the BF ?

Kens holding them to his contract i guess.

The one they gave him…

Of course they are to blame too, but Ken should finally admit he can't go the extra step. He's had 12 years. You can't say you can't blame him. He has not shown a skerrick of self-awareness.

 

[rogerjames]

You wouldn’t be begging for the club to keep you on. Which is what he did in that interview.

I didn't hear the interview (refuse to listen to his dribble) but have read the quotes on here. I think he's talking to his detractors & not the club.

Also couldn’t care less about the clubs history. Means nothing to him. Yeah he’s an odd guy, most people would know when they should leave. That’s why I think Caro and Kane say what they have been saying, even they think he should leave.

All true, but when you have an underperforming employee who won't budge those in charge need to act. That's why they're in charge.

Walking out before member question time at the AGMs shows he has some self-awareness. He's knows he can't perform in that environment. It just doesn't suit him to fess up publicly, he wants the money & is a very stubborn person. People like Ken who get an opportunity don't let it go easily. This fiasco is on those that continue to employ him.

All the wristys he's received in the media by the Whateleys of this world has him genuinely believing he's a great coach.
The guy is mental.

Yes but that wasn't the point of the original post which was you can't blame Ken, he's only sticking to his contract. He shares the blame too because there comes a time when a self-aware, altruistic person would say I've given it my best shot and come up short. Time to move on.

Possession is nine tenths of the law apparently, so Ken owns a contract, so that puts the odds in his favour.

Especially when they have repeatedly said that that is what they will do when the time comes.

All that shows is he won't tolerate people who can't see how unlucky he's been. He is showing zero appreciation of the opinions of those around him because he has no self-awareness. He is only interested in those who validate his self-belief.
