Gorman won't let him clarify anything but gets Baz in front of the media

He did say that it has nothing to do with facilities - gym, Narrabeen etc is not an issue at all.
As I mentioned in another thread - either they are trying to put in place what he wants or a payout for breach of contract.
He also mentioned he hopes it can be sorted either later today or tomorrow.

Whew, Baz likes the gym and agrees it was rebuilt when he got here 
Baz is giving Manly a chance to address his concerns and will answer all questions when Manly give him the go ahead

Seriously why even call a press conference? The club shouldn't have sent that dumb statement yesterday and this press conference offering nothing to anyone.

Damn were an embarrassment.
Why couldn't Lyall come out and stand beside Baz.

That was 10 minutes I'll never get back.
A press conference to inform everyone that he can't say anything. All I got is that if he wants the job next year, it's his. But he doesn't.
He's 100% gone so we can move on now.
But where the hell is Gorman ? HE should have been the one out there this morning. If I was Twenty, I'd be pissed too.

Apparently the ball is in his court...
It was awesome!
Got a whole bunch of Journos to drive through peak hour traffic...just to say that he'll hopefully be able to tell them more in a few days!
lol. If they're going to keep making stuff up, may as well make them work for their boozy friday arvo binges!
As said above, clarified that journos (and Silvertailers) who keep saying he doesn't like the facilities is incorrect.
So basically the same as a month or few months ago. Fix up the personnel and we'll be sweet!
I was hoping that the microphones would pick up something juicy as they were left on when everything was done. I did see 2 journos ask something of a blonde guy in a Manly shirt but only heard "Mate if I knew..." Then it appeared one journo handed something to the Manly guy (card perhaps?)
Anyway, conference went as expected for me.
woohoohoo

He has a job to do to prepare for tmrw night's game, that was not needed and is poor form from Manly to call that press conference and put him in front of the rabid media to say 'I can't say anything now due to legal reasons'. I do agree with him though that the players should not be blamed and the fans should turn up for them.
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.
Regardless of which side of the fence you stand on regarding Barrett’s coaching abilities the situation is now untenable.
There is no way Manly fans and members should have to go into next season with a coach under extreme pressure to perform, who has not only an extremely ordinary coaching record but a totally fractured relationship with the club that has reached the stage of pending legal action.
It simply couldn’t work regardless of who is at fault. I assume he’s gone but who knows with this mess. Nothing would surprise me.
A fresh page is the only answer. That 10 minutes was painful to watch.

This is exactly what it's about, more so a payout imo and he will only stay in 2019 if the club refuses to pay him out.

No, sadly it was ordered by Manly at 4:20pm yesterday to stop people asking them for comment
Gorman's reputation as a CEO is crumbling in plain view 😕
His 3 week holiday to set his family up in the UK, seems to have been straight after receiving Baz's breach notice #Priorities 😡
