I'm glad to see new talent come in to the club Shagfan but the method used is unsavoury. Seconding allies onto the board is treating the members with contempt IMO.
Just so we know you are coming from an unbiased position Shagfan, do you know either of these gentlemen and are you related to either?
Harrison is SHAGFAN's cousin. And Shagfan is spot on the mark, harrison will generate millions for us. the problem is not what he will do on the board, its the manner in which he got on the board. new board members should be elected not co-opted. in this case, harrison is a ripper in my opinion, can generatem oney and has business contacts. but all board members should be elected by the members.
Do I know you BO?? How in the world would you know whether im related to harrison?? I'd love to know how you can come up with something like that.
I HAVE known Mark Harrison for a very long time...i've in fact been going to carlton games with mark harrison for a very long time. Thats all anyone needs to know really. i write to all of you Talkingcarlton posters as a fellow carlton supporter with the clubs best interests at heart. If Harrison was to act in a manner that i thought was detrimental to our club, i would respond in the same manner as anyone else on this site. All im trying to do, considering i do indeed know Harrison well, is provide you all with more information on him so that come election time, we can all make the right decision.
If you declared your friendship with Harrison with your first post on him perhaps you might have gotten a better reception to your thoughts.
People who post here in the coming days, who don't declare their relationships to board members, will quickly get found out. The walls have ears around TC
