Angry Wests Tigers<\/a> supporters are taking action against the club, demanding an independent external review of all aspects of the dysfunctional organisation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The fans are fed up with the Tigers' embarrassing management stuff-ups and poor on-field performances that have seen them out of finals football for over a decade.<\/p>\n

Fans have set up an online petition demanding the review that has drawn over 1300 signatures in just a few days.<\/p>\n

"This is a fan driven movement for change that has collected 1300 plus signatures – the fans need a voice in what happens next at the club we all love," one of the organisers of the movement, Joel Helmes, told Wide World of Sports.<\/p>\n

"The objective of any NRL team is to win a competition. No amount of off field financial stability or training resources can substitute for on field success and measured on this basis we are a failure as a club.<\/p>\n

"A review must benchmark all aspects of the organisation and structure against industry best practice to understand what is wrong and how to fix it."<\/p>\n

In the latest chapter of the Tigers' tale of woe, chief executive Justine Pascoe vowed to get warring assistant coach Benji Marshall<\/a> and new recruitment manager Scott Fulton together yesterday to sort out their differences and work together.<\/p>\n

Remarkably, he then held separate individual meetings with the pair, and the ill feeling remains.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Director of football and head coach Tim Sheens – one of the most respected men in the game and a four-time premiership winner – has been 'frozen out' by officials and is told virtually nothing of what is happening within the struggling club.<\/p>\n

The petition states: "The signatories of this petition demand that the Wests Tigers organisation be subjected to a thorough external review, encompassing all aspects of the organisation.<\/p>\n

"This would include all aspects of governance, operational leadership, administration, day to day operations and football department operations\/structures.<\/p>\n

"This petition will be shared with the senior management of Wests Tigers\/Wests Ashfield."<\/p>\n
