Yoo late. It is in its death throes. Although I feel sorry for those taken in by the lies, I cannot in all honesty say that I am sorry that this has collapsed. So much for the title of the thread started last summer "Club 1872 GOING FORWARD". Any comments now Greg? Blue Avenger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its odd that they had SD helping organise the elections and only now appear to be seeking their help with sorting out the structures. If I was SD I would advise the Board to stand down and organise a new election then set up a watertight constitution that make C1872 a credible, independent fans group. thebooler and Sweetheart 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky True Legend 2,682 Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 This is serious, by the way, and not intended as a dig. Just a suggestion for those still wanting some sort of shareholders group. Why not retain your own shares and proxy your votes to an organisation set up to represent shareholders as a bloc. It would mean that the group would have to take account of the members' wishes if it wanted the proxies for any particular vote at an AGM/EGM. You could still have a fund to purchase shares but thes would be allocated to members on a pro rata basis according to subscriptions.

This is a serious problem though as it gives thousands of our support false hope and information, and makes the bad guys out to be good guys. Dingwall and his puppets are a power hungry, bullying shower of incompetents who are as bad as Graham and Houston in their quest for a blazer. Maybe not the best forum for gauging feeling, but a very dangerous forum all the same. RFC Eagle and bluesteel 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for the title of the thread started last summer "Club 1872 GOING FORWARD". Any comments now Greg? Greg has given up trying to convince the support with his lies. That's how it looks to me. If he was unaware of everything that was going on, he'd be on here like everyone else who believed in it, complaining and showing his disgust at what's gone on. But he isn't. He's disappeared completely as he chases his blazer as FLO, and another potentially serious COI if his parents are to be involved with Edmiston House. There's more people involved in this whole sorry saga than the main protagonists. On their heads be it if our club doesn't progress further than what we are now - a top 6 club at best - and the responsibility for this ultimately falls on King, Murray, Gilligan, and anyone they've used in their struggle to get our club on the cheap. I'm so fukkin sick of all the backstabbing and glory hunting by these individuals that I'm seriously considering spending my matchdays doing something more productive and enjoyable.

I've learnt to be wary of individuals within the SD movement though, had some dealings with them in England and, on the whole, they are a great group there were one or two who were on similar ego trips to CH. The AFC Wimbledon guys were always decent I had a good chat with Kris Stewart (a fair few years back now) and had a lot of time for Brian Lomax. Not really seen much of the Scottish part of SD but would imagine its very much the same. thebooler 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, he was extremely poor tonight. Completely out of his depth. This "malady" seems to be quite prevalent among many who have been in positions of influence in and around our Club ...... it is the single most reason for division in any organisation and is not a new thing ...... the Bullshit Berties are everywhere ..... and even when the warning signs become fact and the truth about them unravels .... it is unfortunately always too late to remove them, as the damage has already been done .... and in this case the decent board members .... and as always ... the fans are the fallout of their incompetent and underhand actions. This case is so serious, that it has put all who may have wanted to become part of Club 1872 on red alert to stay away ..... the people responsible should hang their heads in shame. But they won't. siddiqi_drinker 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
