1. Michael Gardiner will be targetted by Pagan. Yet the Board states we are following a youth policy and that no player over 23 will be drafted unless of exceptional quality.
2. We have no fitness guru to assist the recovery of players who have had operations.
3. We have a coach who players have lost faith in
4. We will lose the coach the players want over the next fortnight.
5. We have no assistants or anyone on the raider that had a quality reputation.
6. We own the AFL $1.5mil including two AFL appointed people to assist our CEO and sit in on Board Meetings.
7. We have a President who has blatently lied to all Members on National TV.
8. We have a President who pleads to supporters to sign up as we are a financial mess, whereas we had a President (Collo) who stated we would be cashflow neutral come 2007.
9. We have the past two wooden spoons to mix our pasta and salads with.
10. We have no Captain. (Couldn't think of anything else).
11. Rumour has it the board are trying to seek a legal challenge to get a pick back from the draft penalties imposed for us cheating.

Feel free to add to it.

He's one of the principle involved for instigating a number of those legacies,

They got us away from Optus Oval - not a pleasant or enjoyable task, but something that needed to be done

Getting away from Optus was not the problem - going to Telstra Dome over the MCG was it.

Mitchells missus is telling her family and close friends that the board have told Barry this is a test of his character and that if by mid next year there is no improvement he has the job

If this board is still around by then it will be civil war at Princess Park after Smorgon said himself on national televsion that Pagan is safe for the two years of his contract.

Number 11 isn't the only rumour there mjonc. :?

Look I know there's circumstantial evidence in favour of some of those points, but they're not all cold hard facts.

How can he do that when Carlton reviews all football positions every year - regardless if we win a spoon or a premiership?

Of course not mate, but I don't believe everything said on here either.

Hopefully a good ticket is formed.

If you take the version in the papers (without having heard the radio interviews mind you) Ratts and Brown aren't anti-Pagan, and Brown is anti-board.

I'd be very surprised if Pagan lasts beyond next year ... if he sees the season out.
