I know I may be in the minority here, but I just don't understand how, in good faith, you can re-hire the person responsible for the darkest period in this club's 150-years.
I get that people love Hird; he's a club legend. But he was the person in charge during the supplement saga, and we're still dealing with the repercussions from that period.
It just feels dirty to me, like we're sweeping everything under the rug.
must mean something if all Essendon Supports associate him as one of the reasons for Essendon's dark period but still believe in him. Usually other fan bases are vile when it comes to similar characters.
