Milan Interview

[Durham Fox]

Can you point to a specific quote from them which backs up this argument?

There isn't a specific quote, as you well know. It's actions and inferences, not actual statements.

I can't believe the Tigers bid thing is even being cotemplated by the FT. We are a football club and have nothing to do with rugby (although some weeks when i'm watching we are that bad it's hard to make out what we are playing) and we should stay as a football club.

The sooner this episode is over and MM is in the better. You just get a funny feeling that they are gonna balls it all up and we are gonna be back at square one. The FT are against MM as they will have to give their seats up on the board

As I've already stated, they are asking Trust members their opinion on ownership and groundsharing. I therefore cannot believe they have already made up their minds on their standpoint on the 'Tigers' bid. For me personally, I was not particularly opposed to the groundshare originally, but I'm firmly against it now and have told the Trust so.

As for them not wanting to give up their seat on the Board, well I'd like to see the fans represented on any new Board make up.

sorry i was probably being a little harsh on them but i just don't want to see what could be a huge turnaround in the clubs fortunes go down the drain.

Also i hope this does not have a detrimental effect on the team. Look what West Ham went through ..... the next thing R.Kelly will be bashing up other managers!

 

[Muzzy's Right Boot]

i don't mean the singer either!:icon_bigg

 

[MHS]

Correct, because the singer prefers to "bash" children.

Lol

Board members don't have to be shareholders. Although they are easier to sack.

Not in law, but many company constitutions require it. Thought that was the case with LCFC, but I could be wrong.

Wouldn't have thought so, otherwise Tim Davies should not be sitting at the top table.

I should have specified non-execs. :icon_cool

Agreed. I would like to see a fans representative on the board anyway. (Not necessarily the Trust before you start).

[drew]

I think as was said there should be a fans representative on the board.

To expain, Timbo is a director of the club.

 

[Jeff]

To expain, Timbo is a director of the club.

And he's also a shareholder.

So are you saying he only got the job as a director because he's a shareholder?

 

[norman leet]

Don't think being a director is a job.

Certainly would'nt of done his getting the C EX job any harm

 

[Durham Fox]

So are you saying he only got the job as a director because he's a shareholder?

Are you saying he would still have got the job if he wasnt a shareholder?

 

[OldGit]

You would expect the CEO of any company to be on the board. It's in the job description!

Sorry, I wasn't aware he was a shareholder, the annual return I've got is a little out of date.:icon_redf

 

[Jeff]

He's been a shareholder from the start, he has 100,000 shares.

It was his work for the consortium when we were in administration that helped him get the chief exec job.
