Rumour is

[STFC Bart]

Sturrock will be offered a place on the board on Thursday

[Arriba]

and if true i'd expect him to except

[herthab]

And?

What's your point?

[DV]

...will he pay the cva then?

[deltaincline]

Sturrock will be offered a place on the board on Thursday

Really? Where did that snippet come from?

I think Sturrock would be fucking stupid to accept a place on the board tbh. I think he's been around long enough to spot when he's being set up - which, if the rumour is true, that's what it'll be.

[Frigby Daser]

fucking ridiculous.

ok, so he wants to get involved, brilliant - and at any other time I'd be all for it so he can vote on te things that count - but right now its just plain provactive - divide and rule amongst the fanbase.

I'd be very dissapointed in him - he should be able to see its just not the right time

that'd also be 7 board members - how many clubs our size have that? and that doesn't even include Seton Wills or Diamandis

Starnes
Wills
Gray
Holt
Bowden
Carson
Sturrock

[deltaincline]

If he accepted a directorship (which he wont coz he isn't fucking daft) he would leave himself wide open to abuse along with the rest of the board.

I can see why the board would want him to join - fans would be reluctant to slag them off with him sitting there. No, it's a fucking desperate move by a desperate board who know their days are numbered. Sturrock and the fans will see through it if the rumour is true.

Maybe someone could start a poll here or on the advertiser forum to see how much support there would be for Sturrock to join the board?

If Sturrocks daughter is reading this, tell your dad that we love him as he is and not to make a tit of himself by joining an idiot board.

Come on, dont just drop things and then disappear.

At least when Mav drops controversial comments he has the bollocks to stay around and offer himself to be questioned !

1. Smart move


2. If this is true, don't you think the last poll had a tiny bit to do with it


PS comments last night with regards to his relationship with the board and his reply about him only commenting about it after Thursday speaks volumes IMHO

[Arriba]

sturrock will back his employers to the hilt.beware the backlash after the forum.proper protests against the board should have happend weeks ago.prepare for loads of fans to reject the consortium after what sturrock will say

[yeo]

Dont discount what the Bartman has to say

[The_Plagiarist]

or do

[deltaincline]

Dont discount what the Bartman has to say

Not discounting what bart said Yeovil, just pointing out that i think Sturrock would risk looking a right cunt if he aligns himself with this board. He is obviously not going to want to piss off his employers by distancing himself from them behind the scenes or in public, but he needs to be fucking careful if he's planning to get involved in the politics. Positions of strength can easily and rapidly deteriorate into positions of weakness. Sturrock needs to play his cards carefully is all Im saying.

[Simon Pieman]

I think if this is true Sturrock will accept. Of course he's going to want more of a say in how the club is run.

[yeo]

Hes aligned himself with them already (all be it its hedge betting)what ever happens we will prevail its a locomotive with no brakes.Death throws or whatever ...goodbye Newbury
