The scary part is he apparently still trusts the board when every man & his dog know they are the root of most of the clubs problems. He needs to act and appoint real professionals instead of the "Old boy's (& girls) club"
Having said that he admits to his own mistakes and has to be applauded for it. His unwaivering comitment to the stadium with funding is very welcome in these tough financial times and should allay the fear many had.
I believe the fans reaction and unequivical support over the last few months has shook him to the core.
Hopefully the penny has finally dropped and the club starts to run like a business from top to bottom.
There's now an opportunity for him to become the owner we all hoped he would be. Hope he takes it.
While I agree with what you say, I think we all need to rid ourselves of the notion that there is a board.
As someone has pointed out earlier there is no board. Correct me if i'm wrong, but is it:
Kenwright, DBB, Ingles, Sharp? Possibly one more ?
Woods, gone. Brands came in and went. Ryazantsev gone. Harris gone.
I've zero expertise in business I just wonder what the requirements are, fundamentally, to run a football club. How many directors should there be?
Surely the top men or women at an organisation are the chairman and the CEO?
I don't have a clue whether DBB is good at her role as a CEO but she's part of the collective failure. It is Kenwright as Chairman, that has to take the
lions share of the collective failure. Years of past indifference, and mediocrity, the current failings and apathy on his part, and to modernise the organisation
in the future he must step aside. For those that love the old lovey he can have some kind of life presidency. Life Chairman of Good Times.
