I never supported Boxhill. I said I didn't know enough about his leadership skills to support him as it seemed very limited at the time. Some people were saying yes support him, we need to get Burrell out but I couldn't support him based on what I knew and I think politics(PNP/JLP) was one of the main reason he got elected and I didn't like that.
I never supported the hiring of Carl Brown as I thought it was not wise of Burrell to hire a TD and send him to England at the same time for training, that in my opinion showed a lack of confidence and the fact that the TD was away for a long while only helped to damper the program. That was where we differ. The training should have been done before he was TD and not after.
I often spoke of the heights Burrell took us and his leadership quality. I didn't believe 30 million $$$ was a lot of money as it was operating cost and one or two full games could earn that amount. I even supported the promised shutdown since the government promised and didn't deliver more support. Yes Burrell made mistake but at least he lead from front and got results. Behind the scenes I have learned about a few charity things that Burrell did that is not public so I admire the man for that too.
I grew up with Ruddy Speid JFF treasurer. I know his family and we were in same class togather from grade six to fifth form. We were friends and almost almost brothers. I have nothing but respect for him, he is ambitious, he very smart, bright and honest. He loved accounting from a young age and I am proud of him and can only say good things about him although we haven't communicated much in the last 20 years.
I also know Gibson(JFF General Sec) but I stated I didn't think he was ready for the job when he got it. I stated I think he needed some grooming. He is also bright but had some ruff edges. He has grown but the lack of the knowledge and lack of confidence of Boxhill and Crew at the begining really hurted his performance. I haven't spoken to Gibson in a long time and he was not a friend, just schoolmate and I knew him as he was in a form or two below me.
There you have it, for the final time I didn't suport Boxhill
