Re: Open Letter To The Board
Interesting to see the posts that Jan has liked in the past 24hrs on his Twitter feed...
My earlier guess about it being a overhead reduction due to the impact on the business is likely to be way off the mark based on those “likes”

Wonder what the real estate value of Welford Road is. Supermarket? Convention centre, car park? Roller skating rink
I'm not cynical just experienced
Re: Open Letter To The Board
I remember on one of the LTTV shows from the summer that it was said that negotiations with our new main sponsor had been going on some 18 months before being announced.Tigerbeat wrote: ↑Fri Dec 04, 2020 11:09 am Whilst it may not look good in some areas, something must be going in the right direction for Topps Tiles and Mattioli Woods and other partnerships to invest in Leicester Tigers.

Richard Blaze has done an excellent job on the coaching side. It is important to have a strong stable coaching team who all work together."

21 March 2017

3 July 2017
A club statement said “after a thorough review of the coaching set up, the structure of the backroom team has been finalised with the senior squad due to report back for the start of the pre-season programme this week.

20 August 2019
Mike Ford who has taken on the role of attack coach believes Tigers' players are 'buying into' the new philosophies being introduced by the club's coaching staff "It looks that way for us, it looks like we are improving, we are more organised and more detailed in what we are doing with better planning.

Director of Rugby Geordan Murphy, said “Rob (Taylor’s) record in Australia and New Zealand at all levels is hugely impressive, he has been successful in all of his roles and we are confident his approach will complement what we have in our coaching ranks at the club for next season. It’s a new-look group and, with Mike Ford moving into defence where he has worked at the highest levels in the game, and the trio of additions in Steve, Rob and Aled, all adding their own unique skills and experience, with Brett and Boris we are more settled, feel we are a much better and balanced group to take the club forward.”

Re: Open Letter To The Board
Brilliant, Traveller. I agree with you, Chiefs management team has become stale and needs to take a leaf out our dynamic recruitment and retention book. They clearly haven't got a clue what they are doing.
3rd July really tickles me - "the structure of the backroom team has been finalised". Define "finalised"...
Joking aside, a new strategy every few months is not strategy at all, it's chaos.

I think it’s maybe time for the board to fronted up to all of us and give us the truth as to what is really happening and don’t fob us of with lame excuses.
I only wish that the owners down at the Kingpower would buy the Tigers and invest and establish a concrete foundation just like they have done with LCFC.
We need fresh ideas at board level, a proven CEO with a track record of on field and off field success.
It’s time for a new start to save this great club of ours before we disappear for good!

Re: Open Letter To The Board
Mmm. Not sure about that. Probably need to appoint someone to undertake a thorough strategic review of our practices, processes and procedures, organisational culture and ethos, in order to develop a strategic vision for the club. This will require whoever they appoint to develop a list of recommendations which can be put to the board. The Board can then develop an agreed action plan and criteria by which the implementation of the strategic plan can be evaluated within an agreed time frame (around midnight tonight). Hazarding a guess this will result in an exhaustive world wide search (where no stone will be left unturned) for a new Head Coach / or Director of Rugby (or both) and that person(s) will likely be Phil Blake, Richard Blaze, Matt O'Connor or Marcelo Loffreda.strawclearer wrote: ↑Fri Dec 04, 2020 5:08 pm'Strategy' only seems to extend to what we're doing by this time tomorrow.
If McGinity is leaving because the club can't afford him, because of the financial impact Covid is having. Then they should just say it. The Board and executive seem to imagine that they are the only grown up people in the room. That they are the only people who have any business experience.
I was so positive about the start of this season and it has taken less than a month to create yet another farce.
