Good point mata, hey Dan is it worthwhile racking and stacking all the zorba posts in some dungeon tomorrow morning so we can just concentrate on the footie games??
Thanks cambo for clearing up the ritchie connection - I didn't know that, yes am sure there are articles of support coming in from media mates

who's zorba?
W ushat gives ben kennedy so much pull....42 games and he is a legend...please he can go back to drugcastle...in my eyes, but out Ben.As for Peter if u ain't performing u don't have a job. facts of business. He was part of a poor performing business model. Get over it and worry about Saturday night. The more fuel we keep giving the media the more they will try and unsettle

One of the most influential people in the club is Des, what has he had to say about it? Nothing that I can remember. If it was trully tearing the club apart I'm sure he'd be having plenty to say.
BK's entitled to his opinion but this is just a media beat up. Let's just get on with the finals, after all that's more important.

This certainly has been an abzorbing debate.
(Hopefully it will start to peter out soon)

When your in hospital having chemotherapy and at your lowest he's the guy who loads his car with your fave players and visits you. A heart as big as a lion and I'm ashamed of you guys for forgetting it.shauneagle said:
He's not just lost his job but his family as well. Maybe he wasn't the best guy for the job but things should have been done differently.

Don't you guys think it's strange that Club owner Scott Penn et al haven't joind the debate regarding Uncle Zorba?
Did his Board hire David Perry to get the Club's finances into order?
Was he getting tired of injecting $1.4m annually with the Board's present structure of the Club?
Or did he give Perry a mandate to improve the Club's bottom line with perhaps a few ruffled feathers along the way?
Did he see the writing on the wall for 66 y,o, Uncle Zorba?

I think zorba himself probably new his time was over. But we all have pride and ego and it was probably had for him to come to terms with that. I love the bloke, hate the timing of the announcement but in the age of digital on and social media we probably need someone a bit more tech savy and intune with current media trends.
In saying that I hope he is always welcome in the dugout at brookie

spot on Cam!! summed it up perfectly!! Not easy to get out after 4 decades in the club as a leader. Agree that Penn hasn't stopped it so he sees the changesneeded and brought inPerry. Club just moving on and Perry has to be given full reign to turn around 7 figure loss. I'm hoping we hang in ther until new tv deal and hopefully the extra funds will prop us up. 20 million by Penn is an amazing amount and should be noted by all on here. No Penn, no Manly!!
