Hallelujah.

At long last, some good news and a glimmer of hope.

Congratulations, Bill.

[Paul Cain's Chip Pan]

Fantastic news. Good luck and congratulations!

[DT]

Brilliant Bill, time for me to look up to you 😀

[bumble]

First board member to be a forum member first?

[robininstockport]

Some positive news. Good luck to him and the board.

Who did he purchase the shares from?

Looking forward to what the review says.

[taxi Phil]

Just read Bill's quotes on the main site. May well be exactly the man we need on the board. Great news.....welcome Bill !

[York Alty is back]

Cheeky question...

Any sponds heading the clubs way?

[Matt Taylor]

Welcome Bill. Finally.

He said some very interesting things in the media last April when he first publically announced he wanted to join the board.


"We have got to look at the way we run things and perhaps tweak the way some of it is done."

"We need to find people who can contribute similar amounts."

"My great hope is it will prove a catalyst for getting others involved…perhaps even investments."

"If we can tweak the business model here, so people can see there are better opportunities for their money to make a difference, they are more likely to want to do it."

"I think Altrincham FC, as it stands, is exactly one of those balance points where what has worked in the past is no longer sufficient to work in the future, so a few tweaks need to be made to the business model".


Let’s hope he comes onto the board still carrying the same enthusiasm for reversing the dreadful damage done to our football club by the current chairman.

It's time to get “tweaking” Bill…

[Sale Holmfield]

Well done and  congratulations to Bill. A genuine supporter, who wants to repair relationships between the board and supporters.

[ManagementGuru]

Thank you everyone - it makes me so proud to be on the board of the greatest non league giant killer - and my hope is to help add to that reputation over the coming years.

New and recent fans have had Wilkinson 121 and Barnsley to add to the mix, and a "so nearly" memory at Colchester.  This needs to be just the start.

Good luck and welcome there is a lot to do and it may take time but it's great to have you on board

[im not really here]

Good luck to Bill, bit he's got a big job on his hands. Getting a proper manager in and persuading the Chairman to step down would be one way of building bridges with the fans.
