Very light weight interview. More a tribute to his tenure than revelatory even though Cornthwaite did try to probe without success.

I haven't bothered to listen, JT has given guarded,  very corporate answers for most of his tenure

And in most if not all instances was the right thing to do.

Don't listen to that podcast big mistake on my part hahahaha. JT would definitely has a future as a politician. Bloke really knows how to spin things and that's the problem he can't see why we are struggling as a club under his stewardship and just focuses on the positives which are long gone now.

😂 yep that was the downfall 

Is that what I said? 

Wow, I only just heard this news. And the fact I have is an indication of where my beloved club now falls in the importance of things for me.

The disconnect JT has overseen between club and supporters is nothing short of breathtaking. I'm not saying Lyall Gorman was the be all and end all of great CEO's, however from experience, he WOULD ACTUALLY LISTEN TO US. He valued us as he knew, without suporters, the club is nothing, commercially.

I'm not going to sit here and sink the boot into JT, I'm quite sure he thought he was doing what was needed, and as directed. 

However as someone else rightly pointed out, doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results, is the sign of insanity. If we don't change what we are doing, nothing changes. JT lost his way, was focused on other aspects of the business ( probably as directed ) however didn't have the acumen or courage to stand up to the board and direct us as needed.

We can all go back and forth on whether he was (is) a good guy, or a footballing CEO, or whether his departure will have any effect, however I firmly believe in the phrase "where there's smoke, there's fire". There has been too many 'incidental' observations of his behaviour, demonstrated contempt for our supporter base, vocal ex players and staff and demonstrated ineptitude to right the ship, lack of due dilligence on coaching and player appointments ( and in that respect lack of performance management of GC ) to not warrant a changing of the guard. He's had his time. His time has come. Stop the rot, thanks for the memories JT.

Edit, I guess I did sink the boot in a little

He used to be/was/is a lawyer.

JT will hand over his stuff to Hudson who is then going to bring the new CEO up to speed, and Rudan is now taking charge of football matters. This means that JT is out of the picture already. All that's missing is Costello's departure to be announced.

Had missed this thread since Wednesday somehow. Interesting.
