Dress it up how you like but the Magpies have one representative on a Board whose main job it is to oversee the Power. When push comes to shove on the Board about PAM funding, for instance, do you really think anyone but Frith will back the Magpies interests at the expense of the Power?

Anyone know much about him? Has big wraps.

We sold an aging non profitable clubroom and after many twists and turns we now have a venue, the NorEast providing a massive income to the Norwood Football Club.
A club room no matter how big will never provide anywhere near the income of a pokie venue.
Now that the NFC has a more stable financial base the time is right to proceed towards permanent club rooms.

Pity that the Good People that own the Highlander get the first 25% from it first SDK? What actually are Norwood profiting in $$$ from the Nor East my mail is not as much as Sturt get out of the lease of the Castle Hotel, but I admit I could well be wrong as I heard that over a year ago.

Prior to the agreement we collected %100 of $0, so we're in a much better position now rather than still trudging through the $-draining legal system.

My understanding (happy to be corrected) is that turnover has been lower in recent times, after a couple of years of solid returns.

On top of that we actually attract spectators to our games unlike some we could mention.
Football should always be the core business and clubs not drawing crowds are on borrowed time.

I think you will find Kym Williams will be appointed early next week. A Very good source. Apparently a very good businessman with great social skills. He has single handedly lifted PNU from nothing to making good money
