GI own the club, therefore they control the board. Richens is correct, it doesnt matter because GI will only select board members who are willing to do their bidding.

Thanks 78. Saved me a few minutes!

Now I wonder who is going to come on here with the spin to tell us all is well and that the club is in good hands?

Gloster, if there was anybody on the board who would speak up for the supporters or oppose the sale of the ground you can bet on it that GI would put them in a concrete overcoat in one of their property developments.

The very point Richens is that there is a meeting of the counncil to discuss the sale of plainmoor soon. who is going to speak up or the club. who is there to defend us. what or who is going to appear from the board to either speak up in support of the sale or support the fans. and who is in charge deciding where the money is going. we had fees from Barnsley and hopefully from Plymouth. I know we are in debt but if there is no one but GI on the board to put their own spin on things who is speaking up for us who has real actual facts and knowledge not fanciful theories. or conjecture. I am realistic enough to know that fans could speak up but i doubt would be listened to becuase they really dont know what is happening behind the scenes. we need someone who will stand up for us who will be listened to.

I thought we'd been told by the outgoing chairman that Sharon Cox is in charge.

I don't understand the point of this thread. GI control who is and is not in the boardroom. Whoever it is will be their puppets. No point looking for hope here!

In light of the meeting announced to discuss the Sale of Plainmoor. I wonder if the old board has now left just who is in charge and sitting in the boardroom at this moment. Lack of leadership is one danger we face. poor leadership would be another and downright dodgy dealings is yet another.
We are open to all three if no one has hold of the reigns apart from GI
