Jim Marinis doesn't get FFV spot

As reported earlier, former South director and football operations dude Jim Marinis - now doing the same thing basically at Melbourne Knights - was in the running for a spot on the FFV board. As it turns out he didn't get it, with two of the three spots being won by people seeking re-election and, on face value at least, his tactic of not putting up a statement for the public to read not working in his favour. I guess we'll see him in round four then, maybe.

  1. That's ok - he didn't really want it anyway... He's really enjoying being at the Knights and he would have had to give that up if he was voted in to the FFV board.

    And what's with YOUR obsession with the man?! Might as well rename the blog "a day in the life of Jim Marinis" coz that's what it's becoming... Not that I care, but some of your more sensitive (and useless) readers might get pissed that they're not the ones being mentioned... But that could be because they don't DO anything. Pfft.

  2. Hi Cindy,

    1. If he didn't really want the FFV thing, why even bother? If he was nominated by someone else, don't accept.

    2. I'm not obsessed, I just think some of his recent activities are reasonably topical. And his recent move to the Knights is really interesting, for a whole bunch of reasons.

    3. For someone who doesn't care, you sure do a lot of writing and defending on his behalf.

  8. Is Dragass / Man G or any of his fckwit mates in the house?

    I think so!!


    Anonymous - As for only commenting when JM is mentioned... I read pretty much every day... and what is written is usually crap, so I don't bother responding.

    PS - grow some balls, people... post under your REAL names. What are you afraid of?

A few notes on comments.

We've had a lot of fun over the years with my freewheeling comments policy, but all good things must come to an end. Therefore I will no longer be approving comments that contain personal abuse of any sort.

Still, if your post doesn't get approved straight away, it's probably because I haven't seen it yet.

As usual, publication of a comment does not mean endorsement of its content.
