At the AGM on Monday 7th Nov Grahame Rowley retires by rotation and he is eligible for re-election for another 3 years. Normally, when a retiring director expresses a wish to continue in that role for another 3 years, the vote from the floor is unanimous and he is re-elected.
It will be interesting to see if there are any abstentions or even votes against his continuing as a director this time round.

It would be no surprise if he decided to step down.

[Ladies Supporter]

Rowley's lost interest clearly, and It wouldn't surprise me if he's already looking at his exit strategy. Something needs to happen and fast, as without drastic change, we'll be playing the likes of Witton and Nantwich next season.

For a guy who has "lost interest" clearly he ain't half committing a lot of time and resources to the Club.

Just be very very careful what you wish for is all I will say

I'm not sure any of us wished for Evostick football to be fair.

We're talking about the first team Phil not the ladies. In case you hadn't noticed we are on the verge of dropping lower down the pyramid than ever before,I certainly didn't wish for that!!

So am I Martin.

I made a comment in response to an assertion that Grahame Rowley (yes he does have a first name) had lost interest, which incidentally is rubbish.

I just don't get why all the woes of the world are suddenly the fault of the Board.

I have been working here for nearly forty years and believe me there have been much, much worse Boards, Boards who took resources out of the Club rather than giving up time and money to do the best they can for the Manager - That is the basis of me counselling caution when wishing for something.

I know we've had worse boards Phil without a doubt and I'm certainly not blaming them for everything that's gone wrong. I just personally feel that too many mistakes have been made especially towards the fans in the media that has questioned my faith in them. Apologies for being so blunt in my previous post,I'm pulling my hair(what's left)out atm!!

[Toff Apple]

Care to redo the poll after the failure to capture clee?

They aren't suddenly, they have been for the past 12 months.

At what point has Graham put money in? Not saying he should but you seem to suggest he has

[im not really here]

Who's fault are they then? What are they doing to turn us around?

[GB Alty]

I can only dare to dream that any shareholders with even smallest ounce of feeling towards this club to do the right thing at next weeks AGM and block another three years of Rowley.

We probably wouldn't have a club after another three years of this. Desperate times indeed

Anyone that puts their hand up in favour needs to get out of the club as well, because you will be desttoying it

The fans have spoken, 60% on a generally pro board internet forum. Listen and step down Mr Rowley, you can't recover from this. And take your sycophants with you

[Frosty]

So we are publicising the fact that we couldn't re-sign after letting him go only a few months earlier? LAUGHABLE

SACK THE BOARD

[wayno]

Can things get any more depressing ?

We don't have the finances to bring back a player who was told was not needed  

One of the healthiest financial reports I have ever seen recently yet we can't compete

It's becoming a no win situation  

We have to now punch above our weight to attract better players with the right money to stand any chance of a second successive deserved relegation

But it appears Clee was out of our pay bandings

Who does it leave us to go after then ??

[Ballers]

Wayno,

Hence why people were urging us to strengthen last November.

It's far easier to stay above north ferriby than it is to overhaul Fylde or Salford.

I shudder to think how much money we will have spent by the next te we regain conference status.

[York Alty is back]

This quote from Red Adair comes to mind a lot at the moment.

'If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur.'

The amateur being Neil bloody Young.

It'll be one he'll of a lot. I'm resigned to this club not reaching that status in my lifetime.
