Dear Realene,
I have been a long time member of this great club for many years. But whether a fan has been a long time member or a one year member it doesn't matter, all are valued equally but as a CEO you still have to provide a product that is encouraging for all fans to want to go back week after week. Without us fans you don't have a product to sell to. Right now, you DON'T have a product to sell for next year because your product is purely and simply not worth the value you are selling it at. To put it simply, I am totally bored and that's putting it nicely. Have I got value for money this year? Absolutely not! Do I think it will improve? Absolutely not in the near future! Please, don't think I am a disgruntled fan because of a very significant loss, no I have felt like this most of the year. I've just been holding out for change but it has not come. Tonight's game in having so much riding on it was one of those non entertaining and boring encounters which once again has devalued your product. Yes I was out there against the Cowboys because I really thought the Bulldogs had learnt from the lackluster playing style of the past games and I'd be entertained. How wrong was I. I feel cheated and ripped off because, and you may not be aware of this but the Bulldogs have been known as the entertainers in the past. It's what we are use to watching. Again, your product is simply boring and not entertaining at all.
YOU employ people to run the football team, so Raelene the buck stops with YOU. With YOURSELF, YOUR suited up Executives, YOUR coach and YOUR coaching staff are all responsible for the "inept" performances on the field, NOT the players.The players look as though they are following a script and no matter what, won't divert from it. BORING!! As I said it's not the players fault but the coaching style. Des Hasler has contributed to the boring style being played and lacks anything to get excited about from a fans point of view. The players look as though they don't enjoy it. Des seems happy to win ugly and with a footballing style that is not competitive enough against the best in the league. Just making top 8 each year is not good enough. It's been 12 years since we've won a premiership, it's not good enough just to make the finals each year. You seem content with that with what you have said in the past. That's not success, winning premierships is what we expect and that does not look like happening anytime soon. It's about quality for us members. We'd rather see out the year playing some entertaining footy, not go out playing as if we are just making up the numbers. Your coach does not encourage this. Boring Raelene, bloody boring!! It needs to change and change immediately because right now as a member I think I have just watched my last game as a member and next year will just pick and choose what games I want to pay for because I love the Bulldogs and will continue to support the team and players, but on my terms Raelene, when and if I want to go and pay for it.
So in conclusion, when your staff ring me early next year and try to sell me your product i will be replying with a thanks but no thanks.
