Former Wests Tigers chairman Lee Hagipantelis has terminated his $1 million Brydens Lawyers sponsorship — and delivered the news in a scathing letter to the club.

Exiled Wests Tigers chairman Lee Hagipantelis has terminated a $1 million deal with the club in a scathing letter to the club.

’s Phil Rothfield, Brydens Lawyers’ has officially ended its support via a scathing two-page letter penned by Hagipantelis. “I can understand Lee Hagipantelis’ disappointment. He wasn’t involved in the review in any other way, but it’s just a bad divorce isn’t it?”, was addressed to the Tigers’ head of corporate partnerships, Nathan Russell, however it’s important to note he was not involved in Hagipantelis’ exit.

“Despite such despicable conduct, I continued with my commitment to the current contractual arrangements as opposed to terminating same, a course adopted by another high-profile sponsor. “Firstly, the distinct lack of engagement by your CEO in our discussions with respect to the continuation of our sponsorship is most disconcerting.

“Obviously, this is of no concern to your CEO given that he has doubled down on the criticism in the recent Australian Financial Review article wherein he referred to, ‘Business people, take their head off and put a pumpkin on. They think they know all about running a sports organisation.’“To allay any concerns of paranoia on my part, I have been contacted by multiple persons expressing disdain at such comments and their obvious reference to me.
