I guess it would be a loss to us, but a good career move for Icke.

Maybe Dick Pratt will offer more to stay? After all, he's only been at the club for just over a year!!!

Be interesting if he scores the gig.

Thanks for the heads up kennyhunter - always with the breaking news to be revealed in the HUN the following day.

Would be very sad to see him go. Only one better in the league is Pelchen I think. Hopefully we can poach him to replace Icke if he does leave, but I really hope he stays. That said CEO would be a big step up for him so no hard feelings if he takes the opportunity. He's done his bit helping to get us Juddy :-D

Now why aren't clubs trying to poach Wayne Hughes from us? :shock:

Would hate to lose Icke, but it would be a great opportunity for him. If he decided to leave without hard feelings, I'd wish him well.

All Pelchen does is make a bunch of stuff up and peddle it to the media every trade period. Can't see how he's the best at anything.

Kick him out now - throw all his shit onto Royal Pde and change the locks!

Can't have traitors wandering the corridors of the CFC. Are any of our players living with him? Send the car around immediately :evil: .

Anyone who takes a senior role (coach/CEO) under Paul Gardiners chairmanship is either desperate or stupid.

He is Jeff Kennett in a tweed jacket.

would be a stupid move on his part, how much more would they pay him? How long would his likely tenure be?

Would you want to be the captain on the Titanic?

If he's worth keeping, Swann and Pratt should refer him to the Bendini Lambert & Locke policy manual*

Because if he gets them right he's set himself up for pretty much any sports administration job he wants in the next 20 years. It's a challenge and if he wants to take it we should support him.

Some of you on here are pretty stupid in relation to this. He's not leaving to become football manager of another club. He's leaving to be CEO. It is a big step up. Also if other clubs want our staff it is a good sign. Look out at the end of the year to see a rush of clubs trying to sign Wayne Hughes. :roll:

He's worth keeping. But he wants to be a CEO. He can't be that here for obvious reasons. We'll get another top football manager. However, what scares me is that anyone else heard rumours about GT being footy manager :garthp: .

Will be said to see him go, he along with Swann represents the new professionalism of the Blues.

BO, believe me Pelchen is NOT someone you want at your club. Hawthorn have picked up a nasty rep with other clubs when trade time rolls around - due largely to Pelchen's antics.

He's got a public profile because he runs to the media with scuttlebutt at every opportunity (eg telling everyone Carlton offered Thornton last year), but he's not popular with other clubs.

Is it a good career move? Steering a sinking ship never looks good on the resume. Better to wait for a proper job. Even Eugene Arocca's move to North is different. They have some passion behind them esp with Brayshaw and the Gold Coast as a safety net. Melbourne are just humdrum

There has to be someone that gets it right - it's a case of whether you look at it a glass half full or half empty!

Its like being coach of St Kilda. Its all downhill after that.
Good luck to him if he wants to go but his resume isnt that of a CEO. He's a footy manager. The Dees ;ast CEO was a newspaper editor. Why dont they hire a CEO? Someone with business management skills.
