OMG! This is genuinely tragic news & will be the biggest mistake since the club got rid of conditioning coach Dave Misson.
OK, he organised the membership strategy change himself. But that guy has seriously been not only the architect of the the 2005 Premiership but in my view has been the person who used common sense & a professional attitude to try and not only change a club with a serious cultural problem but turn it into a footy club after all. Under Baron-Hay we have seen the Club give members a vote, we have seen the club's constitution changed, we finally have a home & a social outlet for supporters & members to congregate at, we have seen problem individuals in the club's administration removed from office, we have seen a drastically better level of service from members of the membership staff when you call them with questions. A small membership stuff-up cannot change this.
He was the first person at the club I really felt I respected, to the oint of being scared of him at times. I did something dumb & he rang me up on the phone and not only blasted me but threatened to tear up my membership. Needless to say I was as quiet as a mouse after that.
The impression at the moment is that the club gives the impression of people on the verge of tearing what it created in its Premiership year apart, both on and off the field. On the field it might need it, but off the field, well I shudder to think what sort of Yes Man they will employ with MBH gone.
