I heard MBK was the first choice but he got a little boo-boo on Saturday and was too embarrassed to go out to the centre.

PG, we're nearly dead. We have to look at these issues extremely. Trying not to be hyperbolic but I am seriously worried we will fold next year. I doubt the nucleus of this years side will want to go around again unless things change dramatically.Phantom Gossiper wrote:With all due respect morell, I think you are looking at the concerns & challenges at Mitchell Park far to extremely.
We have! Multiple times:Phantom Gossiper wrote:You aren't the only club that has these similar issues, you talk about big business sponsors, wealthy families and no revenue from the sporting club, but perhaps instead of looking at things you dont have you could look at ways to minimise the impact not having these things has?
Tried this. Didn't work.Phantom Gossiper wrote:Examples of things other clubs do:
Player Sponsors - put the onus back on the player, draft up a package and get them to go out and hit up their boss or friend or who ever to pay their fees. Add a little bit extra in the amount so the club makes something from it. Tax deductible, good selling point and the pressure is off the player to come up with the money, allowing them to spend money at the club when they can.
We don’t have anyone train with us. Why would they? The oval is in darkness and there is only 10-15 blokes training.Phantom Gossiper wrote:Resources - I know Kilburn have players from country sides (used to i should say) train with them during the week. Kilburn made the club pay a sum of money for the season to allow these players to train with them and use their facilities and the club had to also supply a football for each player.
We have made massive strides in this area. I would like to think the majority of educated football people understand we’re not the same club from 15 years ago.Phantom Gossiper wrote:Reputation - difficult area, and something Ingle Farm struggled with for a long time as well (prob still do). As much as you dislike it, small disciplines like wearing slacks, looking and acting more professional can affect the way others perceive you.
We have had temporary lights set up on occasion, it proved to be quite costly. Really, its Council’s job to maintain their asset, they should be providing those facilities, I think they’re sitting on their hands until the redevelopment kicks off.Phantom Gossiper wrote:Lighting - I know a few years back the Mitchell Park Rugby League club had a sponsor who provided those light towers they use for road works etc for training. That was the extent of their sponsorship requirements and the league club gave them save deal as any other major sponsor. Perhaps this could be an option?
Yeah we are starting to get a bit more return for our dollar from the Sporting Club, since Kylie has taken over. She understands and is actively changing things. Despite people like Jetters claiming she is incompetent.Phantom Gossiper wrote:Bar takings - unfortunately I think more clubs than not affiliated with sporting clubs wouldnt receive the takings, however do then rely on the Sporting club to maintain/upgrade etc the facilities as needed.. lighting would be included in this.
Agree completely. For us we have a lot of our affairs in quite tidy order. We really do. Its just not enough to be able to have a budget to get some more quality people in the door. And I don’t necessarily mean players. I would rather spend money on junior development than mercenaries at the senior level. Have to build sustainability, not insta-success.jo172 wrote:I'd agree, a word of caution @morell (i suspect you're not under this delusion, but just in case) the bar takings are in all likelihood not a silver bullet. Whilst we'd love to be able to hold onto our bar profits even in that event after the Kings ransom charged by the Council and ETSA there's not a huge amount outstanding.

With the return of the legendary S. Holland and Woodward, the Units look a dangerous side, should push for the 5.
On a side note, on the Sportingpulse site, why is there '(i)' next to Brad Woodwards name?
