Assuming we had access to a group contemplating a challenge to the board,

1.What questions would you like answered by that rival group?

2.What would you want them to bring to our club in order to secure your vote?

As a member of Carlton, what message do they need to “sellâ€

What plan do they have to re-brand the club to the football world? Reverse the damage to our image?

I'll double what you're on now.

Hey everyone,

I reckon the Razor has asked a serious question!

I want to be assured that a ticket would:

1. look to structure the off-field operations to ensure that the club is in the psoition to capitalise on trends in the on-line and new media environment

2. will devote significant resources to ensure that our marketing depratment is on at least a level playing field with other clubs, and has benchmarked kpi's to reach

3. structures off-field football department positions to deal with the cicumstances of our young list. This could include career and personal counsellors, and mentors for both football and life

4. identifies where they want the Carlton Football Club to be in 2020. There should be a headland strategy / blueprint released.

Please note my response under Sponsorship & Marketing thread by Brisvegas - a related thread in my view and hopefully both Brisvegas (the 'other' BV) and Ockham are busy forming tickets of gauging interest as we speak.

2 Big Questions that must be answered:

1. When will you and your ticket aim to have us back in the Top 4?

2. When will you and your ticket aim to have us profitable again.

Answering those 2 questions and the plans underneath is a key requirement to any potential ticket (or standalone Director). I wonder if Greg Lee has been approached to side with a new ticket? But the substance behind each and commitment to timetables is what I want to hear; no bleating; no complaining; no he said this, we said that...

I want action and commitment. Commitment to restoring the top 2 above (irrespective of the time they think it will take) and action on key milestones to achieve the 2 including:

Under 1.:
* Youth policy adherence
* Cash to throw at PSD#1
* re-contracting our 'Top 10' or seomthing like that

Under 2.:
* Plan to capture the minds of lost Blues;
* Vision for success on and off field;
* Embracing the history and future of the Club.

M

Good thread.



Do you intend on terminating the current coaching department and completely re-establishing the football department with fresh modern day appointments that will see a short term philosophy of pure senior development which will lead to sustained long term football success?

Do you intend on clearing the clubs crippling debt and restoring the clubs independance?



Millions of $$$$$$

A POSITIVE professional & open approach to running a FOOTBALL CLUB.

The ability to grow our club in membership & marketing.

Until each team plays each other the same number of times, the AFL, as a fair dinkum competition, cannot be taken seriously.
