May I suggest you either e-mail or talk to one of the Football Club board members.
If you haven't you are taking just Grant's words as fact....it's one side of the story!!
I am a HUGE Grant fan, I in fact sat next to him for 30 mins last Saturday night and had a real heart to heart!!
BUT
He's a master of politics as well, and has used the current situation "politically" these last few months.
All I say is make a balanced view after talking to people NOT listening or reading other peoples views!!

Before you insult me have a think about what you are saying.
I am not a football club member does not mean I am doing nothing, nor does it mean I am apathetic. It simply means that I never knew I needed to be a football club member until it was too late.
Trust me when I say now that I know I will be becoming a FC member ASAP and then when the two year wait is up then I will have a say.
Lack of knowledge (My failing) is different to lack of effort. (What I am warning against.)

Well I had not thought of that, so any offence is regretted. (It did sound funny though..)
I applaud you for your plan to join, the more members the better I say, especially if they are prepared to discuss their views.
Be gobsmacked all you want SER.
The 5-2 vote was because Grant had not done a 3 year plan.
That was done and he never got to present it and they never got to vote (as far as I know and I am still waiting from anyone here that has better inside knowledge to confirm otherwise)
My information is that the FC were happy with the plan and I can only assume would have ratified that when they sat down to vote.
Grant was told by one of the 7 (leave you to work out which one) not to bother coming...that has been well documented in the press.
BUT before you shaft these guys get your facts straight!!!!

I find this offensive.
Why should my support of the team be questioned because I feel that a wrong has been done and should be at least questioned?
As I posted elsewhere I will be at the game, as I almost always am, and I am not about to jump ship because a CEO has been canned, but I am annoyed at how it has happened and frankly I make no apology for that.

Nah no offense.Â
People find me odd sometimes. The truth is I have always been passionate about few things, but I make up for it by being extra passionate when I am. So a little vented passion, but no offense taken.
Good, because I was going to add that you certainly are quick to take offence and feel insulted - for someone whose opening gambit was to generally accuse others here of 'apathy'Â

Thats fine, (And good advice btw.) and perhaps I am a little off target then, but what is the harm in having and EAGM where the board members are asked to be accountable then? By all means don't sack them without hearing an explanation, but demand and explanation none-the-less.

Fair call, heat of the moment and all that.Â
Perhaps Apathy was an ill chosen word, I am just failing to understand the harm in members seeking some form of accountability on this issue.
We shall find out a lot about Grant Mayer and his word later on in the year, and if he lands in the Parramatta seat or not.
At the moment put me in the 'apathy' column, and as 1 looking forward to watching 17 blokes run out in Maroon and White this sunday where the CEO plays absolutely no part between the white lines

On Sunday we will all be in the same boat. In fact all this crap just makes me want to be there more, still I am just slightly worried, the team have not been great at dealing with off field dramas thus far this year. Hopefully with the news that Foran will play we might get to see some exciting youthful football out there.
Yep, Foran is the news of the week for me, he may be the future of this club, rightly or wrongly, Mayer is now the past.
Nothing official LSZ, sounding like we will see Bailey to lock and Cuthbertson to bench and Foran into 6
