Wilde no show at AGM

[Wes Tender]

Who cares if he doesn't show up.

 

I very much doubt that if he did show up it would change the minds of the whiners, whingers and moaners like you two. I think I'd be waiting a bloody long time for a "thanks for coming to see us" post from the likes of you.

 

I don't blame him for bailing out, and leaving the grizzling fishwives to carp on and on about how the club has been killed and all that rot.

 

If you want Lowe and Wilde out, do something about it yourself.

 

And make no mistake, I don't like Wilde and I certainly don't like Lowe and I have been 100% against the appointment of JP and co from day one. I want Lowe gone tomorrow, but know the only thing that will get them gone is someone with the cash to buy the lot of them out, or a probably managed mass fan campaign to get them out.

 

The first is not on the horizon and the people who might organise the second seem to content to whine on here and do nothing these days, so that aint happening either. (Alpine, I know you have said before you have no desire to "do" anything which actually is fair play and I support it - neither do I)

 

So enough grizzle, and maybe a bit of action, chaps.

 

Right on the money. As you say, the fan campaign is a viable option as a weapon to remove them, but seemingly doesn't appear to have gained much momentum, although it could certainly be the case that instead of a mass organised protest, individuals have taken it upon themselves to stage their own stay away protest until the charlatans are gone. It's more the death of a thousand cuts, rather than a stroke to the jugular.

 

It might be that the people who would have organised such a mass protest are not united themselves, or feel that they have been ostracised too many times as rent a mob and that therefore their association with such action could actually be detrimental to the cause, no doubt labelled by the board as the Neanderthal element.

 

I think that we are currently in a wait and see situation. Although there is apparently this stay away element building, I believe that there might be a boiling point that we are yet to reach that will act as a catalyst to the mass campaign. I can only speculate what that might be. Relegation, or even the time that it becomes almost a certainty might be it, especially if we continue with our current run of poor results and no action is taken to replace Poortvliet. The sale of key players might act as another catalyst too, unless they are replaced with decent players.

 

If our league position improves, the pressure for change diminishes, but it grows weekly if the current trend continues.

How come there isn't a stockmarket rule that compels the board members of a PLC to attend the company's AGM?

 

It's enough to make anyone think that the financial regulators in this country are incompetent.... credit crisis

 

So, in theory, the AGM could take place without anyone from the board being present?

 

Surely there's some rule(s) that stop AGMs turning into a meaningless tick-box exercise....? .....ahem...

Within the Standing Orders, there will be a requirement for a quorum.

 

Someone must know the miminum numbers required for the meeting to go ahead?

Perhaps he knows the questions he will be asked but does not know the answers!!!!

 

The other three members of the PLC board will be there including the plc Chairman.

 

Could Wilde be sending a message he does not want to be involved anymore other than hold on to his 15%+ shares.

 

Using an old football chant Mr Wilde, you don't know what your doing

[Daren W]

Dream on.....

 

He's just avoiding the inevitable abuse he would suffer from a small but vocal group of anti-Lowe supporters who have bought a share or two for no other reason that to be able to attend the AGM and hurl vitriol at the favourite target (and his new found ally)

 

Hate to disappoint you but the AGM will be a total non-event.

 

Now rather than pick away at the people who want to, quote, hurl vitriol at their new favourite target, might it not make sense to chat about why he's their new favourite target?

 

Or is it better to discuss the symptom rather than the cause??
