Time To Be Shrewd

Hi everyone I have just joined and used to be a member of C&B. I read this everyday but havent joined because I dont want to get embroiled in the debate. However i think maybe this is a pivotal moment in our history and wanted to add my take. Im not a WUM, just a fan.

Rahic Opinion

I think Rahic is to blame for all this. I think he obviously knew he would have a low budget and his business plan just didnt prove to be profitable. He sticks his ore in way too much and I wouldnt be bothered if he went.

The Reality

That being said, without a potential investor we cannot just get rid of him. The fanbase has requirements from an owner, im sure most dont care if hes German or Italian as long as the club is strong. We aren't strong, its clear, but without a new investor we are stuck. If we alienate Rahic, if we dont think about how his personality reacts to conflict then we could end up being the arbiters of our own demise.

All he has to do is to lose interest, not push Rupp for more cash and with rental costs on the stadium could see us either leaving VP or going into administration. We are already at the foot of the league a bigger bash to his ego could be devastating. Unless someone comes along who can pay back his investments such as the pitch etc. then he isn't going to let that go easy. We could become utterly neglected and face oblivion

Time to be Shrewd

I dont want to tell anyone not to protest in any way. There's already a fund for this on justgiving. If it goes ahead those who are organising it have a massive opportunity. Taking a strategic approach the fanbase could have an active role in improving the management of the club.

Instead of 'Rahic out!' what about 'we want change', its ambiguous, it means many things. Most of all its not antagonistic. What do we really want? i think most of us want the club run in a traditional way and we want Rahic to step back. If he does this, brings in a Baldwin or Mason to take the helm then im guessing we would be happy.

Lets push for something within our grasp, that doesn't alienate the only owners we have. Not because we love Rahic but because we need to protect our club against his ego. Emotions say 'get him out' but a shrewd person would say 'change your ways'. Lets have more protests that follow a strategy that instigates positive change in the face of no other would be investors.

'Rahic Out!' achieves nothing but venting our anger. It could result in adverse effects. Blowback so to speak.

'We want change' sends a message but makes our end goal more achievable. We can follow up with more protests, once again aimed at installing a proper CEO. It doesnt even have to be 'we want change' but something with a similar impact.

Let Edin take the glory of being chairman and lets get a proper man like Baldwin in to save our backsides.

If there are no alternative investors. This should be our goal.

 

haha NO!

 

You can officially blame who you want. You can get angry, you can chuck him out. Im not telling you what to do.

Doesnt mean its the clever option.

 

Yeah but you are offering nothing, you are just repeating what we already know. You cant replace him with nobody can you?

Get wise is what I will say.

 

All im offering is an opinion on how there is an opportunity to make a positive change. This calling for his head is just emotion with no substance, no plan, no basic reality. Until we have someone who can invest then calling for them to leave is somewhat pointless. Remember im not saying I want him here I just care more about the long term survival than who is at the helm.

Mr blobby could be owner as long as we scored some goals FFS, wouldnt bother me.

 

Sigh, I said go ahead and protest.

People pay me a lot to create business strategies for them. The current protest is not going to help us. We should be more strategic. Protest but have some achievable goals.

 

Isnt that what your mum said?
