| Quote SRW1996="SRW1996"Alan as i demonstrated in my personal vision in the earlier post if a structure was set up right with a BOD capable of offering the right support not just financial but also professionally to the current buisness manager and staff both paid and unpaid then its a case of adding to and working with what weve got but really moving forward. Not massive wholesale changes just adding value to the great work yourself and other volenteers already do and generating a real wave of support and getting ourselves right out into the wider community and getting the momentum behind us.
Rob Parker is doing a sterling job as a rookie Buisness manager and eager to learn and with the right people at a new top table to learn from he has potential.
Why pay a CEO if you had 5/6 commercially astute Directors willing to be on the end of the phone daily and sit and guide the likes of Rob for free???'"
In many ways, Andy, I feel that Trevor was acting as 'General Manager', running the day-to-day activities of the club. Someone in that role is crucial.
As many former directors, who are business men would probably tell us, devoting considerable time to the club, caused them to take their eye off their own business, with catastrophic results.
That said, I'm not arguing against anything you suggest. A new impetus is obviously needed to recover and then, critically, push on. |

| Quote mr. chairman="mr. chairman"that's why the job as to be a paid job , then the person as responcabilities . Trevor was never a CEO but had connections with the Lsv that paid off . his only involvement at rugby as been at amateur level and pro and amateur are totally different . =#FF0000you can't run a pro club with amateurs or indeed volunteers . would an amateur player change our fortunes on the field ???? yes Trevor put the effort in along with many others and you have to respect that . the club needs a proffessional person to run the club and not from Leigh IMO . regarding Leigh east , they are a well run club financially with a 250k turnover , the problems are on the rugby side not the financial side , Leigh's problems are the opposite so which club is the better run club ????'"
Keith,
Of course, 'volunteer' doesn't necessarily mean 'amateur'. Some of the current band of 'volunteers' are highly qualified in their particular field of expertise. I hasten to add that I don't mean me! My previous experience in the field of media is nil, and I'm particularly aware of that, when I have cause to talk to my programme counterparts at Wigan, Leeds and Bradford - all of whom are 'Media Managers', who have an army of paid journalists at their disposal. But then again, I wonder what their salaries are like, compared with mine?  |

| Quote mr. chairman="mr. chairman"sorry alan I meant at the very top level like CEO , players and marketing . you will never find me nocking either as I used to give up 25 hrs a week at east . volunteers are the lifeblood not just at rugby clubs but the country it's self . I admire what they do , it's a passion . sometimes alan the passion runs away with people and I know only to well . look at my time at Leigh =#FF000040 hrs a week for £100 lets face it I was an amateur and it didn't work as I couldn't devote my life to it'"
You got paid?!! |

| Sorry to disagree Charlie but in cases like this no news is bad news as it gives the snipers and rumour mongers time to spread their poison and tickle tackle I only thank Andy (and even Maurice ) for giving us so much, we all know how much communication comes from 'the top', none no more than I as I've been trying (and in the main failing) to get as much news out there about the club for years, even though some seem to pillories me for it. |

I agree, at the moment no news means 'is anything actually coming out of all these discussions/meetings?' |

No problem with what Fred is saying. I've been banging on for ages about us not getting the communication right. (but I don't know whether I communicated it well enough! ) |
