Twenty on FOX

Looks to me that TB is being pushed out and the silly games revolve around negotiations for a pay out figure. Looks like we have already signed someone who is happy with Cartwright as assustant. Looks like Neil Henry to me.
LOL - the Manly Titans. Maybe Manly will deliberately lose tomorrow nights game in respect of their godfather team. I hear the Godfather of Manly even lives up there so it's all coming together.
The Manly Titans...........get used to it.
If what you say were to happen we should all disown the joint, seriously.
Oh and if Cherry was to backflip on the Manly titans is it a backflip???. I ask ya....!
I'd do a one hand clap, but I have another hand.

Interesting read there about Bozo

I heard Fatty on MMM with MG last night and he said that Bozo would "never have anything to do with the club again" - wasn't really clear if that was Bozo's decision or the clubs.

Fatty starts about 3mins 30sec in

I would take it being along the lines of Bozo quitting before the NRL could touch him re the salary cap stuff, much like Gee did at the Broncos. If he did come back into the game he would have to front up about the whole issue, so that won't gappen
 
If we win this weekend and the spoon is all but avoided, we should suspend this clown from his role as coach immediately. So long as it doesn't mean we have to fork out extra $$$ as a result.

It's been obvious for weeks both sides are just playing legal games in order to maximise and minimise their payouts.

I have been a Barrett supporter ( in the sense I hated him less than most ! ) but this rubbish will do me.

Send him out with his tail between his legs immediately.

Yeh you're probably right, that whole salary cap drama has to have something to do with it. Ties in with that Webster SMH article where he says Bozo is still wielding influence - through the sons. Puppet dictatorship and no doubt being endorsed from on high. Gorman not able or willing to do anything about it - he knows what side his bread is buttered on.

You can understand why Barrett would be frustrated, but i suspected all along he was just Bozo's mouthpiece and doing as he was told. Bozo built the squad so it stands to reason he built it with a game plan in mind - his and not TB's. If Barrett has cut the strings to Bozo then his on field results are a damning indictment of his coaching ability. It's a results driven business after all.

Have to wonder about the wisdom of bringing Bozo back into the fold - he has cut and run and left us with a right mess in terms of salary cap, squad and coach. Might take a few years to recover by the looks of things. Do people think the Penns will sever ties with him completely or do you think they are willing to keep backing that horse ??

That had to be because of Peter Peters. If the Penns aren't smart enough to realise they need to be rid of Uncle Zorba, they don't deserve to run the club (or a chook raffle).

Peters' influence has been going on for a while now. That faction has been doing as it pleases them by white anting the crap out of anyone they want gone. Geoff Toovey supported the Quantum faction and was pushed out, DCE was almost pushed out until Bozo came in and pulled him back, Tim Cleary couldn't put up with it anymore, Seibold and Willie Peters were pushed out, Lyall Gorman has already been put under pressure in the Manly Daily and now Baz is ready to leave.
It pains me to say this but if Baz were to leave, I don't think we'd deserve a legend like Geoff Toovey here at the club. Whether he can coach or not is another matter but the guy only wants what's best for the club and I'd be afraid that he'd be put through the same crap again by the same people if he were to come back.
 
Barrett was having this press conference at this time, quitting, firing or not,
Barrett tendered his 12 month quitting notice in july.
He wants to leave at the end of the season because he has another gig lined up but is trying to get paid out in full.
Manly know all this and are calling his bluff by putting all the spotlight on him, not providing his demands and refusing to pay him out.
If we don't pay him out he either has to quit to take up his new position or stay.
He will quit and we have someone lined up already.

We are being shrewd.
 
IMO once the agreement is reached he will be shown the door and Cartwright will be caretaker for the last couple of games. We need to win on Friday thats for sure. I don't believe that Barrett is popular with all of the playing group and I wouldn't be surprised if the players (who have previously sworn allegiance to him) are being quietly told whats really going on. If Barrett in fact instigated this by giving his notice in July then I can understand why Penn & Co have sought to made good their promises as they don't want to have to pay Barrett out. I don't believe Barrett scheduled the press conference this morning to simply say no comment I suspect he expected an agreement to have been reached and he wanted to get in first but they snookered him. The way he is behaving you would think he has a deal elsewhere. He needs to go sooner rather than later.
 
Like most, I am gutted by the ongoing Shenannigans

Leadership starts at the top

A bad leader will cause an organisation to crumble

Toxic leadership is a combination of self-centered attitudes, motivations, and behaviors that have adverse effects on subordinates

Never in my wildest dreams would I think that our proud club could degenerate to this rabble

Now is the time to lead Penn or sell up and get the hell out of dodge. 🙁
