Ffs why not let JH rest in peace. Our predicament has absolutely nothing to do with him

If Foran loved this club as much as he says he would have resigned months ago. His quote that he fully intends to be here next season is astonishing! Obviously needs the huge salary to maintain his lifestyle so fek his beloved club. Do the honourable thing and resign now and limit the damage to your reputation. Same goes for the directors.

Yes I can see that happening but all these people have huge egos to satisfy so I don't they could ever work together.

No doubt The Builder will come to our rescue or maybe make some think he has out if his love of football

The last (and indeed only) ICT director that I am aware of having received remuneration as a director is Graeme Bennett. Really? The company is owned by the shareholders who in turn approve the appointment of (most of?) the directors to run its affairs on their behalf. By losses, and this MAY answer Snorbens' question, I am guessing you may be referring to any excess of expenditure over income in the financial year ending a fortnight Wednesday and/or any drop in income in the event of relegation. Fully aware of who owns the company but directors are appointed on the number of votes received which really means that those holding the majority of shares elect the nomination. They can also be co-opted. Profits are profits and losses are losses no matter how they are painted. Should we be relegated (which I hope is not the case) I fully expect our income to reduce considerably. Our expenditure is another subject as any business has fixed costs which are generally not controlled by the division we play in. To control costs is not an easy option unless you cut wages, reduce staff and general overheads etc. Are you saying that it's ok for the small shareholders of this club to take the loss of their hard earned donation? While there is still a chance of Premiership survival, I am very reluctant to become embroiled in any discussion of "blame" which does occur to me as a rather divisive distraction while there is any remaining chance of staying up. I am also not certain that this forum would be where my eventual viewpoint would emerge first. Premiership survival should help the club/business to survive but even if we do (here's hoping) I would not consider this season as being acceptable either on or off the park. Changes are desperately needed. Absolutely NOTHING divisive in any of my comments. On the subject of any "anti board" sentiment, that is simply my ongoing perception. And as we all know you are not always correct. Again, check all my posts the first of which was on 9th April.

Maybe you would like to check the posts I have made on this subject. To label these as having an "anti-board" agenda is harsh to say the least. Maybe you should check the 16 posts I have made and you will find the majority are replies to posts. Your apologies are awaited.

"One major flaw there would appear to be that these are volunteer directors who receive no remuneration" So you are telling me that we have no directors receiving any remuneration either directly or via business relationships with associated companies? "I wonder how many volunteers there would be to become directors if these were the rules? Absolutely no idea but I think you would find others outwith the current carefully selected members. The rules for limited companies are pretty clear and do not give any allowances to the "football type" business. If the directors have no financial responsibility then who should bear the losses? I'm not going to attribute blame...... I would be very interested who you feel is to blame for the current state of this club I can't help but feel that caleyboy has a preconceived "anti-board" agenda which he is content to express from behind a mask of anonymity. Absolutely no "anti-board" agenda here Mr Bannerman just looking for a well run football club with astute financial management. Just looking for those responsible to hold up their hands as they all seem to be keeping very very quiet. As you are well aware I am entitled to protect my anonymity for personal and professional reasons and I fully expect it to stay that way.

Exactly. As in any business directors know the risks associated with their role as custodians of the business. Their decision. Either manage a profitable business accept the financial consequences. Simple.

Should be the same as any business IHE, if we go down this board should fund the losses incurred by relegation. Those not prepared to satisfy this basic business need should step down as soon as our fate is decided.

Wow - fantastic!! He is the worst manager in our history - he should be hiding up the tunnel not parading in front of our fans.

if we are fortunate enough to get to the play-offs v DU I don't think he would be in the squad.

I have supported the club since its inception. Are you saying you are not interested in how this club survives? If our relegation situation is not sufficient to get our custodians to notify the support of their intentions/plans then why shoukd we pass on our hard earned cash before we know their plans? Do you have a better idea?

Until the Directors of this club tell us how they propose to take care of the potential loss next season I think fans should hold off buying season tickets. Unfortunately, I think its the only way they are going to take notice.

Ok but I think you'll find Foran's budget is bigger than Yogi ever had

Ah well that'll be ONE season ticket holder for next season - BRILLIANT!!

The club has a number of people who make rediculous decisions and don't have the balls to put their hands up and take responsibility.

This is not about JH. This guy is nowhere near the quality of our most successful manager of all time. .

Yes. TBH unless there is an early regime change it is very likely the same will happen to Charlie.

He is Head of Youth Development (up to 17) but has no involvement with full time Development league players

I would appoint him as DofF now but I don't see much support coming from Cameron and his cronies

Just another crap decision from Foran. I wonder what next?

No

Simple. If directors or owners of a business make poor decisions it costS them money. It is now time for our directors to PERSONALLY PAY for their decisions which have placed our club in this position Should they decide not to - they shoukd step aside NOW. Ps Well done CC for speaking the truth but I sincerely hope they don't punish you for telling it.

Correct, "it's not Brian Rice's fault......." so let's leave it at that

Sorry but I am being serious. Am I really the only one who is giving this poor guy any support? Waken up and smell whatever - it is the effin manager who has fekin destroyed us.
