This is what has been happening and so far it's got us nowhere, as i say paper over the cracks, adding to the problem rather than sorting the problem out.

I would like to see a Director of Rugby on the board to represent the sporting side of the club at board level.
From what I understand, in addition to Moran, the board consists of Lance James (local engineerings company), Diana Terris (WBC Chief Exec), Bill Holroyd (local businessman) and Norman Summers (Greenhalls accountant.

However I do firmly believe that Simon Moran is essential to the future of the club but I do wish he would get some better people and advice around him. Clearly things are sliding away at an alarming rate of knots.
It goes back to before the stadium. Don't forget, and granted I am using his words; the bought the majority shareholding to ensure the club's priorty would be making the team as strong as possible. Not take whatever profits there may be.
Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

Surely the fact that Simon Moran associates with the likes of Latchford Wolvesfan is damning enough evidence.

Incorrect and that is an insulting comment to the work that many, many people did on this proposal. Did you ever read the report that got published after the enquiry? It stated that the ground and store did break planning guidelines but they passed it because of the depth of support of the fans and the damage it would do to the community if the premier sporting club in the town ceased to exist.
The move to the stadium will always be the pivotal moment in the history of this club. Unfortunately a lot of the goodwill generated during this time has now been lost.

I am also aware of that and that was a crucial time in keeping the club going in that period before the stadium proposal was past. But I still state that it was the building of the new stadium that was the pivotal moment in the future of this club and that happened because of the will of many people.

Moran, the Board, Lowes (though I agree with that one), half the back room staff, Doug Hoyle, Briers, King, Monaghan, Rauhihi, Clarke, Bridge, Johnson (agree again), Reardon (and again), Penny, all the shop and ticket office staff, the stewards, and Mr "On 3, 3 - 2 - 1" (definately get rid of him) all have to go!
Won't be much left
If you are referring to Martin Gleeson I think a much more accurate description would be former world class centre.
