I'll reply later on in more depth, but this just shows how clueless Lynne Anderson (who SHOULD KNOW THESE THINGS) is, and exposes underlying agendas of the current Football board that many feared.

She is a Director, she should know these things.

This is all over our social media pages, and website. Fucking morons.

This is from ClubsNSW site..

APPOINTING DIRECTORS – WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Section 30 of the Registered Clubs Act 1976 allows club boards to independently appoint up to two directors in addition to those who have been elected directly by the members, subject to the following requirements:
- the term of appointment is for a period of no more than three years;
- the person must be a full member of the club;
- the person is not eligible for re-appointment after the end of the term (meaning they must stand for election should they wish to continue); and
- within 21 days of an appointment, the board must notify members by placing a notice on its notice board and website of the reasons for the appointment, including the person's relevant skills and qualifications and any proposed honorarium.

This is a ‘deemed rule’ under the Act, meaning all club constitutions are deemed to provide the Board with the authority to appoint directors.

However, some clubs may have constitutional restrictions on who can be elected as a director, such as rules that limit those eligible to stand for election to members of a certain class, or requirements to the effect that in order to be elected to the board one must have been a member of the club for a certain period of time.

Although these rules may only be applicable to ‘elected’ and not ‘appointed’ directors, clubs should review their constitutions prior to appointing a director, and consider obtaining legal advice if necessary.

The ability to appoint directors is different to the powers most boards already have under their constitutions to appoint a person to fill a casual vacancy on the board due, to the death or resignation of a director during his or her term of office.

Importantly, additional appointed directors must not increase the size of the board beyond the maximum number permitted by the Registered Clubs Act, which as of 1 January 2017 must be no more than nine directors.

So... back to the current Football club board. WHY are they running scared? WHY are they so upset over this? Because this has potentially fucked their agendas (some which can't be spoken in public just yet due to defamation laws, because proof is not out in public). Suffice to say, it's eye opening and a genuine concern.

No matter who the people are that are on the boards of both the Football Club and Leagues Club giving the power to the Leagues Club will be the biggest mistake in the clubs history and could potential kill the club off. It simply cannot be allowed to happen.

People on here certainly get worked up over a little argy bargy. Peponis after being given the shoulder by Anderson used a clause that exists in every club to directly appoint two directors. Both these blokes are top class operators who are not going to bring the club down. If anything they will use their skills to take it to the next level. Will they support Dr G if he gets back in - yes of course, but not at the expense of good governance. So that is a win for the Leagues Club.

Now for Lynne Anderson. She thought she could use her Footy Club influence to control the Leagues Club election outcome. Again, nothing wrong with that from her perspective and I dare say if she had been smart enough not to offer up that idiot who has been suspended then most everyone would have been on her side. She got blind sided by Dr G and is now looking for a way to get back on top, so she sends out this dirty little missive to create fear among the older people who typically vote (I voted yesterday).

Ultimately this is about politics and power, not about the Leagues club supporting the footy club. That will always happen, but Anderson thought she could pull the levers from the bench and get the Leagues Club to march to her tune and now she has rather painfully found out that there are other smart people in the world besides her. Ouch.

I agree to an extent however in the future a Leagues Club board could be voted in that wants to pull all funding for the Football Club and there will be absolutely that can be done about it.

So Peponis' bum chum Dib gets ousted and now he decides to make a constitutional "alternation" so he can starve the football board of cash so they fail in their term?

Why wasnt this done years ago by Peponis? Why does he decide this needs to be done now?

If true he is a dead set wanker
You REALY think they will starve the football department?Cant you see the picture Lyn Anderson and co are painting?So endorsing a bloke who gave us the darkest period in the clubs history and handing a dodgy person a seat on the board (just to return the favour) is a better move than appointing 2 very astute men with very impressive resumes that will benefit our club immensely.Both with major ties to the political,business and finance sectors?according to this media release.Lyn Anderson claims if the people she endorsed don't get voted in and peponis and co get re elected,that will result in the football department being starved of funds.REALLY? When was the football club ever starved of funds under Dib and peponis?wasn't that one of their biggest downfall in giving des unlimited funds to bring us premierships?Why isn't the new board showing more concern with the 0-2 start to our season and the DNA she promised to bring back?She won't be bringing back anything other than the old crew (Andersons 11) and the 'Family bank'.

True, but it's more likely to snow in Bankstown than that happen. If they made any sort of move to do that there would be an Ex-AGM called within 24 hours and everyone voted out. Iemma is a really good bloke and has a passion for the area. He isn't going to make a decision that would negatively impact on the footy team. This is just fear politics and people with experience know it. Peponis pulled a swifty - no doubt, but equally Anderson has been trying to ram unsuitable candidates down our throats. Bottom line is she has been out maneouvred by a highly experienced board member.

Nothing like that at all.

Read back on what those in the past were involved in, and what they got locked out of when they got moved on. Read back on who those in the past employed in the past, and how the people they are dealing with now could benefit.

Worth noting that John Ballesty knew about our salary cap shennanigans.

It's all about history, money, and control.. and it's about to get really really ugly. One side has over promised and is having their plan of action altered by counterattack.

Hopefully media pick it up and report it, as they are offered better protections, and have far better lawyers than TK can afford.
Whatever their reason, the leagues club controlling the flow of cash to the football club, can only be a bad thing.

tbh i was always a fan of Iemma even though i am not a labor voter. He obviously has ties across all three sectors though why was he brought in right now? Why wasnt he brought in years ago to "immensely" strengthen the club? All it is, is Lynn and George going at it like little kids.

We got done for salary cap rorting. Was it done for personal gain? Absolutely not. It was done to try and bring the cup home. Illiegal yes, blatant yes. Are others cheating the cap? Absofuckenlutely. It all comes down to how well you mask and hide it.

Darkest Day? Absolutely not. We got done cheating, copped a $1m dollar fine and took out the premiership 2 years later.

Darkest Day with Hasler? Darker than the salary cap rort. Payout in excess of $2m for a coach not here and left with a junior base, roster and salary cap which will take years to re-build. (No premiership to show as well)

You have been waving your dick for years that Des needs time along with your Lichaas, Dibbies, etc but you are judging Anderson after 2 weeks of footy?

On what basis are you judging that on?

It was Dibbie who appointed Pay, it was dibbie that said were bringing back the Bulldog DNA and it was Dibbie who told you "mate Des didnt want Moses and its why we lost Teddy" but it was Dibbie who lured Woods over after stating he has no dealing with signings whatsoever.

Dibbie is a piece of shit just like that marroun ****

I think the reason why these appointments were only recently made (apart from the obvious) is that I think the legislation was on changed in recent times to permit it to happen. Prior to the last year or so there was no capacity for a board to directly appoint someone.

That is a scare campaign mate. Seriously there are a couple of things that need to be said:
1. Why would league club directors not fund the football club then risk getting voted out and
2. With the new nrl grant, if a football club is run properly- no funds from the League club are required anyway

What concerns me is that this seems to be a sign that a power struggle is escalating within the club. If the football and the leagues club have enmity and a shitty working relationship, things can get bad very quickly. Today Peponis might not have any plans to starve the football club of money, but if we see an ongoing power struggle he could decide that his only option of ousting the current board is to make it hard for them to get results through starving them of operating funds. I really hope the opposing parties just sit down and work out a way to work together. Obviously ego and emotion are starting to play a role in whats going on and it's now spilling from behind closed doors. If you don't think these articles that are becoming pretty frequent can lead to enmities I think you are a bit naive.

For all the people who are trying to create doubts in our greats Peponis, Mortimer and Co.
Check your history and get the facts right.
It's not Peponis and and friends who have looted the club.
It's your beloved ROYALS
It's The the same people that sacked the most successful coaches in our history to employ the son in law.
wasted tens of millions on the OASIS
who were behind the salary cap scandal 2002
who provided Phantom jobs for ( Royal ) family and friends.
For all I know you could be one of them
What motivates you is EVIL...
Its not for the good of the club !!!
The club belongs to the members the People of Canterbury Bankstown !!!
Not for the Liars Crooks and Cons You support

1: to make the football club appear to be failing.
2: the NRL grant really only covers operations i.e salary cap, coaching staff, transport. Any improvements, equipment, admin, media, support staff and facilities maintenance etc, are all funded by the leagues club.
