Opinion Sack Hinkley 4 - Show Him The Door

[PA88]

This club is so devoted to Hinkley that I can't even fantasise that they will sack him.

 

[StrappingTape]

Is there anywhere else in professional sports globally where the coach is unsackable with no success?

 

[Doctor Feel]

Dont think the club can hide behind excuses much longer.

Thank you for your service David and playing whatever role you played in our new sponsorships etc but were now past you and hinkley. We need football people first and foremost.

Time to step aside and refresh the club and reinvigorate the supporter base with change. We are ready to accept a down period so long as we see change, direction and growth. Its time.


In terms of our next hires...an intelligent coach and a straight shooting president would be a good start.

I'd also suggest we move Richardson on as well.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Imagine thinking a coaching team who go play cricket etc with the players could remain impartial and professional. This is just a low performance mates group headed up by the oldest blokes in the group.

Dont fratenise with the troops.

 

[Portmagpies36]

The only thing this club can rely on is the supporters.

But for how much longer?

 

[Us against the rest]

He will be hear until seasons end, Koch has already said we are a "professional" club and don't sack a coach mid season.
Although I don't think Ken qualifies as a coach.

Also, at what point does the club hierarchy start asking questions like "Is Clarko available?"

 

[nomisg]

Presser : He makes "we" statements, doesn't take responsibility

Don’t judge him on one result. Or the zillions like it.

 

[StrappingTape]

So at least now a whole bunch of us can reply to our emails to Richardson with an I told you so.

Who'd have thunk going into this season expecting any different for the tenth year would end this way? They should sit down and ask themselves how did we miss what all these "simpleton" fans saw. I put quotes on that because I'm sure anyone's opinion not working at the club is instantly disregarded as just a passionate fan with no idea.

You just inspired me to re-read my opening paragraph to him in the aftermath:

“Beyond Michelangelo’s patronising piece on the website last night, at least assure me as a Platinum member that there’s going to be a thorough review into the team’s constant failures (getting jumped early, failures against fellow contenders, failures in big games, Adelaide Oval constantly proving to be anything but a reliable home ground advantage).”

Tomorrow morning waking up to whether Ken is still coach, will either be:

or

 

[rogerjames]

Koch having to watch that and sit next to Vanstone. What a night.

What’s the chance you guys get your wish?

No chance

 

[rogerjames]

Crows...Melbourne and blues this could get interesting...

?, L, L

 

[rogerjames]

Carlton , Hawthorn , Gold Coast will all win a flag before us....

Remember when we laughed that Richmond are miles off one in 2014......

next minute they've got a few , bulldogs do and even a rabble like Melbourne have...

And Kens still here

Correct

 

[afl2004]

Hey Richardson you were warned about giving this fool a contract extension.

Massive failure as ceo !!!

I wanted you to do well as you seem smart and nice but you put you're credibility on the line with hinkley and you have failed massively !!!!!

 

[Total Power]

As an overseas member i feel for all of you who invest your hard earned money and more so, time, behind this mediocre boys club. Time to vote with my feet, i have stuck with the club during the worst of times in 2012, but enough is enough if Ken isn't gone this year they won't have my money. Fortunately i am 10,000 miles away from all the carnage. Time to enjoy the cricket and tennis.

You mean the "white noise"?

 

[Port85]

Judging by socials I think maybe the worm has turned for everyone except the most delusional of happy clappers.

People who don’t think (or care) too deeply about the technicalities of footy now have 2 recent mental anchor points for our performance. Prelim and the Russell Ebert tribute game.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Simply can't coach round 3. Give Monty the interim role and see what he has.

 

[mpoi]

Erin Phillips time to shine.

 

[Pt Augusta Power]

Ken is bigger than the club. He’s not going anywhere until he wants to.

 

[Lefti93]

0-5 is a real possibility. Lose to crows it's a given at this point
