Day Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 1 hour ago, Ghost of Clough said: Wrong. Clowes is a supporter and will be on the DCFC Board 😉 I'm sure many have chosen not to read the infomation provided by the club, but the headlines are: The initial view is to meet quarterly with the DCFC Board but I imagine the regularity could be adjusted in the future. The SB will have the power to veto against key changes - colours, badge, stadium, league, etc... They will mainly discuss accounts, diversity, sponsorship values, and corporate values. Leave the club colours, badge, stadium alone. Don’t be signing up to any Super League. Avoid those sponsorships from betting companies from the far east that don’t even appear to be trading. Sorted.

Van der MoodHoover Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Smells like a NED role to me. All personal liability, no authority. Bit like living with Mrs vdm. Where do I sign up? i-Ram and hintonsboots 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmo’s left foot Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Sounds like it could be an interesting role actually. Not easy to represent the entire fan base though, given the age and attitude differences across the spectrum of supporters. That said the remit is pretty clear enough, protecting the club from the sort of activities seen across numerous football clubs, such as rebranding, team colours, stadium sales to dubious concerns, sponsorships from companies that do not align with club values etc. So such items have to be approved by the SB. Good idea I think. LeedsCityRam, angieram, ariotofmyown and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking aside, it does feel like under Clowes, we are essentially "fan-owned" anyway, so this role seems like a token gesture from him. I don't believe he'd consider any of those things for a second The irony is that we'd need this role if we were owned by some overseas billionaire, but they would never allow a supporter on the board!

kevinhectoring Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 I think there are better ways to make the fans believe their voices are heard. On a related point, it’d be interesting if DC were to devise a scheme for transfer of 49% of the club to supporters who want to invest. Would be complicated but now’s the time to do it (rather than when the club is in crisis) Dordogne-Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trappatoni Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 One thing they can do it tell the club to calm down with the stewards in the South Stand. Went for a gypsies at HT and was told rather than return along the front of the stand I'm meant to climb and descend a set of stairs. I know it's a small thing but I'm a paying customer I'm going to walk the quickest easiest way to my seat and I don't need about 100 stewards lined up in front of the stand to stop me running onto the pitch either.

You could be there to act a warning against fans having too much say in how the club is run, perhaps with a weekly column in the programme where you talk tactics and formations.

Actually, they are probably better off getting you in at a higher level to oversee everything. i-Ram, Comrade 86 and Tamworthram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment, the 'actual' board is made up of Stephen Pearce, and David Clowes - get someone with the footballing knowledge on it, please.... We all know Clowes is only interested in box ticking. The only reason he saved the club from destruction was to get those boxes ticked. In other news, your post seems to about 100% incorrect.

Priority needs to be ensuring all fans read all threads and posts in the Derby County section of the dcfcfans forum, before being allowed to buy match tickets and/or gaining entry into the ground.

Perhaps they were worried about you 'dribbling' on the pitch on the way back in case it damaged the grass? 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
