Be interesting if she joins the board with £40 million in her back pocket. Back together as far as I know .The directors I heard mentioned were her and Cathy Jamieson .Others are showing an interest including an award winning baker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Maxwell could very well be parting ways via Thistles relegation, and an absolute 50% dump of a stadium, but at least he brought the mascot through. Nah, IMO leave the football side to the manager, SLO and us lot!! We'll call that plan B... .....Plan A, leave football side to manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I based it on the fact he had a footballing background - I misread it and ploughed on ahead regardless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fmcc Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 What a road we've been on the past year or so, pretty much to the day when MJ announced he was stepping down. The difference a 'just' a few hundred grand can make in this league is huge. I know we're not going to all of a sudden be Killie St German but if Mrs McL fancies throwing a bit of her new slush fund in, that would be great, thanks. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caldow Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 I would welcome PM or anyone else with money, business acumen and the good of the club at heart. What’s important though is a fans’ representative ASAP - someone who knows how the fans feel and can speak up to try and stop some of the daft decisions that get made (some of them may be trivial but nevertheless it’s a barometer of how in touch with the support the board is). From gaffs like encouraging fans to buy season tickets but not to come to some games so we can sell their seats for more money - to bigger picture thinking like league reconstruction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scouser2 Posted May 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 That is the public confirmation of one more addition to the board , will be interesting to see how soon other addition(s) are confirmed and how these changes assist going forward ....... also wonder how likes of the directors who quit while back due to issues with MJ etc......now see the changes that have happened in past 12 months 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18yardhero Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 Good appointment on the face of it, I reserve the right to judge when we see what she contributes. If we get another contract with the hotel that sees us paying full price for everything rushed through then we'll know why. Horrible rumour doing the rounds yesterday that she's already talked about changing the voting structure in the board room away from one person one vote to being based on shareholding. If that happens then there is no point in the likes of White or Kiltie even being there. Even more so if I was the trust in Killie folk I would be seeking guarantees that this is not the case before parting with a dime. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The voting structure must NOT be based on shareholding, we will be back to the MJ rules all days. This is also the road to ruin for a hell o a lot of clubs whose owners were interested in the land. Not that I think this is the case, but I’d imagine BB would be wary of this as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be very unusual. Shareholding is usually only relevant in matters which are put to all shareholders, eg at an AGM or EGM. The voting structure could only be changed by a vote by the shareholders which, of course, would involve MJ and his major stake! I can't see why Mrs McLeish would advocate this anyway as her shareholding will be nowhere near the size of BB's.
