will be missed

His power will be missed

Please dont let MY CLUB implode like it did after Jack.

Jack became far too big for his boots, just like Eddie is over the road at the present time.....

BUT

Now I have a fear......

Nothing at all to fear.
Dick didnt only put us on the right track financially, but strategically.
We have very solid people in all the important places.. I'll tell you how well we're going- we dont even need a President!
His legacy and the things he implemented during his Presidency will guide us for a long long time.

his presence (seems to be soon sadly a lack of physical presence) should drive the team and club to greater heights

i will be very upset and disappointed if dick's poor health/passing does not inspire absolute passion and determination in our performances

and as Josh says he has laid every foundation the club needs to be strong going forward

I know Dick is very ill and hes close to his time.

But can you blokes give him the courtesy of not talking about him as if he has already passed on???

Its like the scene in Zorba the Greek when the French woman is in her death bed and the village is acting like shes already dead and scavenging her stuff...

:roll:

Fair point.


Will his sudden turn in health speed up the judges decision??
