You have every right as a passionate dogs supporter to ask those questions. But i will let you know what i know of Turvey. I met Turvey at a dogs forum after our salary cap scandal. Turvey and george took over the reins of the bulldogs together. The bulldogs were struggling to get sponsors. I through a work colleague and friend arranged with turvey for Mitsubishi Electric to become there main sponsor. Which lasted 9 years. I know what turvey went through during that time also the media beat up with coffs harbour. I personally saw what turvey went through especially with coffs first having the support of the board then back stabbing him leading to his resignation as CEO. The media beat up then was incredible. Lies after lies. Those who remember the dogs were on front and back page of the telecrap for weeks. When dib came onto the scene turvey always supported dib saying he was a good man. I believed him up until a few years ago. Even at the last election turvey still supported him. But he did voice his views and had to resign as a director. I know that turvey was the only director that was causing problems because of hasler he said to me he had no support of the board. So we all know that dib tried to look good towards the end but i dont know what he promised turvey for him to support dib. To me that was turveys mistake dosent matter what dib said you couldnt trust him. Turveys only mstake is when he resigned he did the right thing and should off washed his hands and thats that. But to me Steve Mortimer is a Champion and in my eyes always will be and i will never forget what he did for the bulldogs.
