Football department changes - Ned Guy resigns

[Jezza]

Sam McClure on Footy Classified saying there will be major changes in the football department in the next week or two.

I wonder what this entails?

Stephen Wells in, Derek Hine out.

No details as yet so could be coaching (not necessarily Bucks) or something in recruitment. At least it appears we are doing something about our dire predicament. It’s going to be an interesting time at Collingwood.

I am hoping it is Stephen Wells in.
Hine was extremely lucky to survive the 2017 review

Whatever these changes may be, it cannot be allowed to detract from the fact that Buckley and his assistant mates need to go.

He needs to take and be held responsible for his role in this mess, rather than moving everything else around him.

Derek Hine and Ned Guy would be very nervous right now I suspect.

Not sure how on earth this moron was appointed in the first place!

[Woods]

Neddie Guy and Decker, have been busy trading picks,
And paying overs for old age rovers - it just gives fans the shits.
Redeeming Beams from the Lion’s den, was one such dubious call,
A move so barmy the Magpie Army, might put Eddie against a wall.

And so it begins......more to follow me thinks.

A long, long time ago
I can still remember how that footy
Used to make me smile
And I knew if they'd take their chance
The Pies could make the people dance
And maybe we'd be happy for a while

But November made me shiver
With every paper home deliverd
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if I cried
When I read about how hard he tried
It made me wonder if he lied
But today the he had been fired

So, bye-bye, List manager Ned Guy....

[Woods Of Ypres]

bye bye Baghdad Ned

[SteveH67]

Good

Don't let the door hit your arse on the way out!

[Swanny2011]

To my mind there are four people that are accountable/responsible for the mismanagement of the playing list.
Geoff Walsh (Gone), Ned Guy (Going), Derek Hine and Nathan Buckley.

I hope the last two also leave as well. Not that I am vindictive.

It is the simple fact that they all continually made the wrong decision over and over again with recruitment and wages.

I feel sorry for the next poor bugger that has to come and manage the mess.

Ned Guy will live on in collingwood football trivia.

"who was that guy that put collingwood at wooden spooners for 10 years??

"Ned.....Ned $£$%^%%$ guy...."

The accountant that cant Count.
