I still think that the club needs to open themselves up to media scrutiny on the 'sale' stories. To tell the truth, there has been so much information and misinformation bandied about, I don't know how a reasonable person can be certain what the real situation is. Without being condescending, the YF group that sat down with Morrison are not journalists and while it seems they got a lot of good information from him, it wasn't really tested in a mongrel kind of way that an investigative [especially Australian] journalist would do.
The cynical might say that was the reason Morrison chose to speak to YF rather than open themselves up to intense media scrutiny.
We have all asked why they didn't talk to Piney as a friendly face and I think it was mentioned that Morrison talked about Piney saying something less than complimentary. I heard Piney say on the radio that 'the goal posts had shifted' since he spoke with Morrison and I got the impression he was pretty pissed off about something. Whether it was that he believed that he had been lied to in the first place or his nose was put out of joint because Morrison didn't some back and speak to him again. A pissed off journo with knowledge can be quite a dangerous prospect to an interviewee with either something to hide or has some difficult answers to give.
I'm not saying who is right and who is wrong, Morrison's latest chat with YF rings true but so do some of the things that had been reported prior to this. I'm not certain that I believe either side of the argument completely and my faith in either is not a given.
So much this.
What I am still concerned about is if Rob cannot front a Jason Pine interview (whom would be very balanced and historically has always given the club the benefit of the doubt) but I suspect would ask some probing questions, than something is wrong.
