Quote: Saul Hudson "There have been no signs so far that anything is coming unstuck for Gus personally. There are no indications from what we can see that the 'board' are unhappy with any of this nonsense.'"
FURTHERMORE....
If anyone really cared about what was going on at the club,then they wouldn't have far to look for a long list of monumental clusterfx by the warden:
91 SL games at the stoop since we returned in 2006....
2 Others played "elsewhere"........
Highest "reported" attendance 12,301.
Highest actual attendance 8,213
Lowest attendance 1,517...on his watch. In fact, 5 of the 7 lowest attendances are all on his watch...8 of the lowest 10!
Average attendance at the Stoop BEFORE 2011 was 3,831
Average attendance at the Stoop 2009/10 was 3,408
Average attendance at the Stoop AFTER 2010 2,928.....903 (23.5%) down on the 2006 figure and 480 (14%) on the 2 previous years....this is with the name change and his hand picked staff in place.
Season ticket holders we were told were static at 890 in 2011 and 2012......no announcement on the fall/rise in numbers in 2013.
8 games out of a possible 55 where the team has had a shirt sponsor...by the end of this season, that will be 42% of the time
Season ticket holders expected to pay twice as much as away fans for hospitality....
Marketing and Sales staff fired and replaced with a personal Assistant to the CEO
If the club was a publicly traded entity, this guy wouldn't have been employed, but as long as we arethe hobby of a benefactor, we have little control or say about what is done to a club that we have financially supported over the years.....the RFL need to step in IMO.
