Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 13 - Another Crack At This

[PAFC66]

Why are they so allergic to spending money on the coaching department?

Nobody wants to come to us ...
An assistant coach is one of the worst jobs in football.

Wouldn’t have made the slightest difference.

Did you clear you cache re the emojis? Do you need some help? Happy too.

Locked in for 2025.

No assistant coaching changes either. Chad was meant to move into a development role but that's out the window and they're sticking with the status quo, with Sutcliffe expected to fill the duties voided by the departure of Luke Kelly.

Too many decision makers in a position of comfort right now, and as supporters we are powerless to do anything about it.

2025 set to be a repeat of 2023's shitshow.

What happened?..

A couple questions for you Chewy?

1. Which footy committee members made the voted to keep Ken and which members voted to remove Ken.

2. Did David Koch or any other member on the board have any influence on Ken staying on.

3. Still staying on the topic of Ken do you what know his objectives are for next year. I.e Make a Grand Final appearance, make Finals etc…

I bought a tassy membership this clubs ****ed.

Go get a West Lake’s one too.

Keep the emojis.

I understand Hinkley still going until his contract ends, but wtf with the assistants!

Hinkley's objective for next year is to secure a contract extension and build his bank balance.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

And so, it comes back to a lack of accountability to members and supporters. I know I’m preaching to the choir on this.

100% and their is no longer any logical reason not to make that our 100% focus.

In hindsight, if Sicily makes that set shot, he's gone.

I dont even believe that any more.

I was directly in line with Sicily's kick and fist pumped when I thought it sailed through. I was mightily p*ssed when the ump signalled hit the post.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

He said that after the fact.

Multiple senior decision makers at the club have all said privately in the last fortnight that Ken would be gone if they had gone out in straight sets.



Just announce the succession plan and move on.

They say a lot of things.

They don't do a lot of things though unfortunately.

What year (outside of 2023 and 2017) was there a time where they could have either let his contract expire or sacked him outright?

The financial issues of the club in conjunction with his long term contracts meant that many years he "should" have been sacked meant it was never even a realistic option to occur.

Ahh it all makes sense now.

We can't get rid of him when he has a contract
We can't get rid of him when he doesn't have a contract
We can't get rid of him when he bombs out of finals
We can't get rid of him when he doesn't make finals
We can't get rid of him when we are poor
We can't get rid of him when we are rich

It seems we underestimated the cunning of this fox.

[Butters and Pepper]

We're all just bastards anyway.

 

[rogerjames]

If we are going fine next year watch them sign Ken up mid year.

I have zero faith after this year they have the guts to make the hard call - After watching Koch at the B&F he has little intention of sacking Ken, close enough is good enough and we should all be grateful.

Smug campaigners the lot of them.

Agree even though I didn't watch any of the B&F. Couldn't face it. But the quotes from Koch seem quite defiant & I get the feeling he will back Ken forever.

 

[rogerjames]

We're all just bastards anyway.

And proud of it. Long live Koch's bastards.

You can still do it if you like

I very much doubt it got as far as a vote.

 

[rogerjames]

Lol. I knew Sutcliffe would be elevated. Saved myself 1k.

You did predict it. Sigh.

 

[rogerjames]

Well that is ridiculous. They obviously didn't watch the Swans game. They wouldn't have had the guts to sack him anyway.

Can't agree. Get paid well & don't need any formal qualifications.

Respectfully, the Club couldn't give two shits if yourself or anyone else for that matter threw in their memberships. The Club in terms of revenue is significantly up compared to this time last year (well over 1M).
