How the once mighty have fallen
It's not even that bad, is it? Illawarra is a bit of a backwater so corporate revenue is always going to struggle to compete with other teams. Membership and game day revenue will increase quickly with a winning team.
. Our new CEO then had to call him to invite him. He must be thinking what the f*ck have I got myself into.

Quite often you stand on the outside of large branded organisations and assume that they run with a level of professionalism and competence, then you get closer or actually inside and see behind the curtain realise how wrong you are. That's repeatedly the feeling I get about this club and stories like this don't help. I would have assumed that the club (meaning both sides and the JV) would have a database of past and present players and communicate with them on a regular basis and have at least one reunion a year with special anniversary years for gf teams on top. I remember the days of the greats being driven around Kogarah Oval waving to the crowd. I got to meet Norm Provan at the back of the grandstand and shake his hand on one such day, something I'll always remember. As old Jack used to say, winning starts at the front office.They forgot to invite soward to the premiership reunion cos he wasn't on the email list, I can't take this club seriously

Met sticks when he use to manage the old Rydges Resort at Caloundra. He had a dedicated St George room. Stayed 3 nights and every night you'd find me in that room full of memorabilia. A big man and a gentleman too had a beer with him every night, he didn't drink was a tea tottler.
Far and few between im afraid. I remember after the game at Kogarah the members and fans went across the road to the Taj Mahal and rubbed shoulders with the 1sts team over a few beers. These were the days
So I suppose the Gordons would be immensely satisfied with this. What a shit show. And yes I am part of the membership revenue which I assume is slowly dwindling, with our results over the last 15 years what would you expect, certainly not results at the Dragons.
l'd really call it the Benny Hill club, Watsford has a hard rd ahead of him, and I hope he just doesn't become a board arse licker.They forgot to invite soward to the premiership reunion cos he wasn't on the email list, I can't take this club seriously
