What I don’t understand, is if such individuals hold such a view why don’t they stand for election or nominate another person who might have superior capabilities as an alternative?

It is easy to highlight perceived issues with the current regime but the WST is democratic so why not forward the alternice solutions for Leadership that you have.

Good idea.

is it possible to trigger a vote of no confidence in the board?

The fans are asking for new leadership, from people who know about football. Spencer does a great job but should be relieved of footballing decisions.

Spot on. For all the good off the field work, Harris is killing us with his ignorance for not getting a suitable experienced person in to make the footballing decisions.

The football board isn’t democratic, no one can stand for election to join it even if they think, could or are better qualified to do the job.

The board is unelected and therefore undemocratic..Last January the Board took actions without informing WST..Do you think WST should be kept in the dark?

No they don’t need to go they do a great job of everything else, especially Spencer, however, they very obviously need help with the football side of the business.

Agree with this but I think they've left it too long. They've soured their relationship with the fans because of pure stubbornness.

If we have an elected board the club will die in my opinion. No elect the trust board which chooses football board. That said do remember that most of the football board are elected to the trust board.

I feel sorry for BH, he must have thought it was all his Xmas days rolled in to one when given the job. I don't blame him for taking it on.
He will be hung out to dry by the football board if results don't improve but I cant see this happening until mid season as it will reflect badly on them.

Lets not forget

The previous season after Keats leaves Davis is appointed and results fall off a cliff.

Last season

Ricketts leaves

The football board appoint Barrow who had stated he did not want the job.
Barrow then quits but they still hold a meet the manager night.
They have already sent a job offer to mike Newall, so its to late to change their mind and have to pay him off.

They then keep the WST board in the dark regarding his replacement, who has no experience at all.

Who then struggles to gain a run of good results and comes under pressure.

If BH continues to fail he will be sacked, if that happens, then changes to the structure and composition of the FB should occur. If no changes occur then I would support a vote of no confidence in the board and I Know I would not be alone.

I want fan ownership to work.

Nice to see you in debate BV
