The answer is simple.
Two words.........................
'One Agenda!'
Sadly we will never see that again. Carlton Football club has barely had one Agenda since about 1995 and getting everyone on the same page is simply not possible from here on in.
Being Capt Obvious, blind Freddy can see the entire World is fast devolving into an Agenda's driven society, on every level. I have 8 staff directly under me. Every phone call I get from them tends to be some subtle form of manipulation or an attempt to plant a seed for their own ends. After so many years with them I can read their Agenda's like a cheap novel.
Covid, Politics, Media, Social Media, Big Tech, Lift, Right. etc, etc, etc. It is all about 'I'm right you are wrong and how can I make money by taking a certain side or stance.'
Carlton FC is simply a microcosm of the World over the past 30 years. Having a personal Agenda and being selfish is the norm at most Football clubs. The Agenda's and cliques go on infinitum and I have seen them up close and personal for 11 years. 5 years since I finished, there are still plenty going on and things are obviously broken.
Carlton FC is so far away from having a single glorified Agenda, that hoping for a flag is like hoping to win Tatts.
For every CFC Board Member, there are 10 of their friends trying to influence them with their own selfish Agenda's. Some of the friends have real clout so the Agenda's get traction.
The World is pretty well @#$%^& so why should we expect CFC to be any better. People in Power, with Money are the pinnacle of the Agenda driven society.
I'm wondering if this is merely Lockdown 6.0 talking..............but tell me I am wrong and why.
Regards CazzesmanYep , you have the happy knack of hitting the nail on the head Cazz . Despite the truth of what you say , someone comes out on top . And hopefully there is a modern day George Harris out there who despite the odds will take the bull by the horns and by hook or by crook will drag us out of this shit..............a second coming , thats what we need . I point blank refuse to believe we will never be great again .
