Im struggling to make rational sense of your argument here Host - you dont like the current board I get that - but you also dont like a strategy which could enable fans to be the difference between removing an unfavourable board or being stuck with them ?

Fans don't do anything. A wee cabal take over and enforce their view, that is always the way of things. In this instance the wee cabal helped force regime change, not for the well being of the club, but for their own personal benefit. It's not that I don't like the board, its that I watched certain members make a cunt of it the last time they were on the board, its that I have seen them, and their close allies, in action for over a decade and I therefore knew what they would deliver, know how they actually regard the fan base and know that their overall view will deliver nothing but appeasement. The fact we are now witnessing this is hardly a surprise and gives me no satisfaction, i'd rather they proved me wrong, delivered fantastic new revenue streams and defended the club and it's fans. As to fan ownership, or say, i'm pretty old fashioned; grab your chequebook and buy the thing lock, stock and barrel that way you have a meaningful say anything else is a route to disaster.

I know this is football day but when you read such unadulterated pish I can't help myself. Your lack of awareness us truly staggering. We've just had an AGM where the 'majority' of fans have just voted the entire board back on for another 12 months, including King and Murray who you continually vilify. Please don't ever think your viewpoint is reflective of the wider fan base. It's not, and the vote yesterday showed that so please stop assuming you know what other fans think and posting on their behalf, because going on your output on here it's very likely you'll be very wrong.
