The Real Weakest Link
Thu Jun 09, 2011 7:56 pm
We all have our opinions regarding Dave Jones, personally I'm glad he's gone, but like it or not he was the one with the contacts regarding football matters within the Club....why? because he was the only football man whom had the contacts, and rightly or wrongly was given free reign due to this.
The point I'm trying to make is, If Dave Jones was that depended upon regarding the day to day running of all football related issues and decisions within the Club then who the hell is orchestrating things now??...
It's common knowledge that there is disharmony at boardroom level, apparently tensions are not so much strained but at boiling point. This worries me because the last thing we want is a Us and Them attitude at the echelon, and I personally believe that is what is happening, what I mean by the Us and Them attitude is the continual power struggle between the Rugby v Football men running our club.
This Power struggle and disharmony will inevitably filter down to the dressing room (my personal opinion.......this has already happened)
My conclusion...........The Weakest Link is Gethin Jenkins....the reason I have come to this conclusion is quite simple.........(my dog was born in a barn, doesn't make it a horse now does it
)................

I quite like Gethin Jenkins so far, he's always come across well and spoken the truth as far as I can see it. I doubt he's the one in charge of the final decision for the manager and i'm sure Bellamy has had his input too.

Annis,
... hope you're right ...........the reason I posted the message is because what I've just been told, quote " It's fuckin doing my head in, Gethin knows f**k all about football and he's trying to teach old dogs new tricks 
" just glad he didn't bump into him in Caroline Street

Fair Comment
.....but as he's the Chief Executive, he has an enormous power of the final decision making. (that's what concerns me).
