Dave Boddy has resigned as chairman and has been replaced by Anthony Hampson.  Other news David Hallmark is co opted onto the board and our very own Peter Mandleson (IDIFF) returns to the board.  |

Don't lose sight of the real issues. DB himself is not the main problem its more the direction in which the puppet master is leading the club. All that is happening is that he has brought in some new puppets. |

As the EGM resolution (if passed) looks to get rid of the four directors (DB, LB, TP, JP), presuambly these three new (ish) faces will still be on the Board on the 29th November whatever happens following the AGM and EGM?

And who is Anthony Hampson? When I googled his name the following story appeared on the BBC site !!! Anthony Hampson became stuck 50 feet above Old Market Square when his hydraulic platform failed on Monday night. |

Is there more than 3 new? If there are enough of them what's to stop them allowing DB and the rest back in post AGM? Very clever move... |

It's all been very cleverly done.....nufflify the EGM and open SAG up to accusations of wasting peoples time etc....
At least we can still vote against the election of these new guys who they've co-opted on, as they all have to be formally elected.

It goes to show that without a real concerted effort, and a lot of joined up people, it is nigh on impossible to remove the encumbents from office within a company with a constitution like ours. A further director Alistair Hayward-Wright was co-opted at a previous time, when ? who knows!
There's also a Cliff Slade standing.
The people standing are introduced as successful, community minded businessmen! Maybe some people should check out the track record of our new Chairman! It makes interesting reading.

Smack on the wrists for you squire! Alastair double-barrel is a Redditch based accountant, and Cliff Slade is something do with transport training. Jim Panter is the Old Vigs cricket guy.

I like the idea of Hallmark on the Board, he is now totally accountable to shareholders.

What about Mr Peake? there is no mention of him on the list of Directors and yet he hasn't resigned or was he never a director?

Thats a very good point - and I'll be interested to know how Simon Williams feels he can work on a board alongside Barry Ward, Derek jones and Richard Bentley.
And it is also interesting that they do not feel that the clubs main sponsor would be suitable as a director!!! Yet he and his family business have put more money into the club than the rest of the present board put together AND promote the club on all of their trucks. What thanks does he get? "The Board recommend that you vote against................M Pinches....."

I think you will find that Mr Hallmark will wave any future bills for getting us up to Nunnery Way or giving any advice to the board,(was that a pig I just saw flying over).

I would imagine that the board think this is a very clever move to protect their places but I think that they have made a major mistake. This will show all shareholders how little regard the board has for them, galvanize opposition against them and push support towards the alternative board candidates. I am certain that most people who may have backed the present board will see this as a snub against the democracy of the AGM/EGM and change their mind.

Can anyone please tell me, within the constitution of WCFC, is the AGM more important than the EGM?
Never has the phrase "pulling the wool over peoples eyes" been more relevant

Are you going to give us some clues on where we can find out more about our new chairman?
