Who’s Sticking Up For Us?
By BIG-STEVE
BIG-STEVE'S RED & BLACK SITE - 14/11/03

Football was once such a democratic sport. Fans of a club joined their football club, these Football club members voted for board members to represent their views, these board members appointed a CEO, this CEO made representations to the ARL via various meetings and committees. What’s that you say? This structure still exists? Really? But what’s happened? Something’s gone a miss? Somebody’s not doing what they’re supposed to be doing!
