Why not though - where is the forum for that discussion?

That's something that niggles me, is that if you do speak out against decisions of the Board you get tagged as "difficult" or "chasing your own agenda" or some such.

The reality is, if you're on a Board, you're there representing people. Consequently, you are going to be talked about and disagreed with. It's part of the gig.

Unfortunately in New Zealand we have this stupid attitude that because you're a volunteer you are immune from criticism.

nobody says diddle in CF club meetings. I reckon CF could say they were changing the shape of the ball to oval and no one would say boo. 

Not sure if the club reps just want to toe the line, are out of touch with goings-on, or if they just don't give a rats. 

That makes it important that there is a good mix on the Board. I'm not sure (m)any could relate to the Cap 1 'issue'.


 

I meant that the North Wellington forum/thread was not the forum for this discussion!

 Maybe it needs its own thread.
