Grant Thomas 4 CEO!

Post: # 704145Post ProGrantThomas »

I hope someone from the club at least approaches Grant Thomas to be CEO of the St Kilda FC, It would make up for the Ben Cousins stuff up.

My advice on this is the same as it is for those who would like to see Brian Waldron or Jim Watts back at the club:

Go out to your car, have a look at the size of the rear view mirror then compare it with the windscreen.

We need someone to head up a team of administrators who are going to take this club FORWARD.

I also think that we should NOT look within the AFL industry for our next CEO. We need someone who is young, dynamic, well conected, full of energy and totally driven. Time to think outside the square because the square is possibly rooted !!

Could Rod Butterss and Grant Thomas job share?

It would really leverage their synergies.

I thought hed already started - isnt that why we handed him a lazy $200k??....or was that free consulting CEO work with the odd bit of footy "mindset" coaching thrown in?

Whole club was "rebirthed" as part of the Russian weight loss guru thing under Dalai Grant.

Now that I think about it - the only thing this guy was missing was some dopey blondes, Warrick Capper and a pink helicopter (he had his miami vice mate as Prez/accessory).

to finish off the job?

we could do worse and probably will, but i'm thinking it would be too threatening and intimidating to various elements of the club.

I hope someone from the mods recognize you as a troll and get rid of you.


The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.

Prefer Andy Plimpton and Stan myself.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

and to avoid trolls, maybe the polls should confidential. only those sainsational members say for example who have been a member since the beginning.

Great idea, all he needs is some money to get his campaign off the ground, perhaps we could all chip in and give him a bit of a loan, we know he's good for it...

Dear Grant Thomas,

Thank you for your interest in the role of CEO of the St Kilda Football Club.

The applications have been exceptional, and unfortunately, whilst you have an excellent skill set, we have decided on another candidate.

If you don't mind us keep your name on our database, we may contact you in the future should an opportunity arise.

Yours Sincerely,

GW.
