Genuine answer: I have no idea if she gets paid or not, my assumption has always been no as it's a trust, but I am not 100%. No she doesn’t, she does it voluntarily on top of her day job. I don’t know where she finds the time. She does a lot more behind the scenes than some seem to appreciate. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daviefaekillie Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 While we have a bunch of fans who won't contribute for some tenuous connection to a protest against tricky Mickey I see that giant of Scottish football Morton can get more subscribers than Killie!

I’d be wary of that. I really like the fact The Killie Trust is focusing energy on the supporter experience - it’s why I started subscribing recently. If people don’t fancy joining, fair enough - I didn’t for years. But I find the anger and vitriol from a few on here absolutely baffling. Who gets angry about people giving up their time and money to try to contribute something to the club?

PrestersKtid Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 It's frankly embarrassing that clubs like Motherwell, St Mirren and now Morton have more subscribers to their initiatives than we do. I know times are hard but you can't tell me that those 3 clubs have drastically better off supporters than we have. Trust membership is a tenner. TIK can be as little as £1 a month. The Trust is one of the few options outwith the usual streams available to us to increase income into the club, the members get a say on what the money we raise gets used on. We've now got a fan representative on board which imo has been a big positive. Maybe the safe standing isn't everyone's cup of tea but i'm sure most will agree that the disabled facilities have needed updated for years and this is on the go. Whatever folks reasons for not contributing, i'm sure they'd all agree they'd rather have an extra £100k in the club than not. If you're worried you're not getting personal shares as a part of your contribution, why not buy 15-25 shares a month direct from Killie instead? It'll make no difference to the shareholding either way but Killie will get the extra income. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personal Finances isn’t an excuse as it affects every fan of every club in Scotland. I think most people would rather just moan about what’s wrong than take action. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recommended wheelchair capacity is 80 spaces for our crowd attendance. Ploughing money into projects that benefits supporters and the football club allows the Club to target money to other areas.......like the playing budget. Just taking an obvious opportunity to beat the drum as always. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor an election procedure for future directors. I don't know what the current status is. I expect the whole process now is a trial with the board as to how they see it working going forward. Having pocketed £100k, they can't exactly withdraw from the agreement (I suppose they could refund it!). I hope and expect that they will judge favourably CJ's presence on the board. I think it's important for the future of the Trust and the club that it is judged as being a benefit. So the board pick who they want and keep them around for as long as they want. Decision making is not the strong point of this incompetent board. -5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chubbs Posted January 14, 2020 Report Share Posted January 14, 2020 The most recent Articles of Association on the club website are dated 2014 and do not specifically mention the fans rep... the following section talks about the 'Community Engagement Board' and their representative on the board at the time. 21.2 The CEB shall be entitled to appoint as a director of the company one person who is a member of the CEB and who is not an employee or an existing director of the company (the “CEB Director”). Subject to the following provisions of this Article 21.2 and the provisions of Article 22 below, the CEB Director shall have a fixed appointment term of 12 months but may be reappointed for a 2nd term on notice to the company from the CEB. The CEB shall further be entitled to remove a CEB Director from office and to appoint another person in their place by notice to the company. Where any director appointed by the CEB ceases to be a director due to any of the provisions of Article 22 the CEB shall be entitled to appoint another person in their place. For the avoidance of doubt, the CEB Director shall not be entitled to be remunerated by the company for service as the CEB Director. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be wrong but is this not something that was dreamt up by MJ and was a complete sham. I think this is separate from the Trust director. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
