If resolutions 1-4 hadn't been passed, SG threatened to pull the plug on the Oxford game

How do we now remove the current board to make sure the correct buyer is found? The conflict of interest is too big to be left to the current board with promises of directors loans being repaid and SG and TP continuing to steer the ship (or aircraft!) that they have almost fully destroyed already. | | | |

Can you believe he did that! What a tool! And also telling the ‘no’ voters to have the courage of their convictions and face the media and explain why! What an absolute crumpet! |  |

Both of those comments (Saturdays game and facing the media) were in poor taste. We all understand the situation. I don't think that was necessary.
I really hope this is the start of a positive phase for the club. Time will tell. [Post edited 7 Mar 21:43]

It was a perfectly legitimate objection to the comment about naysayers 'fronting up' and facing the media with their objections.
It was a crass and unacceptable comment from the Chairman. Each shareholder should be allowed to vote with his/her own conscience according to his/her own wishes, without unnecessary snide remarks to those shareholders who don't agree with the Chairmans' opinion.
The shareholder in question made his thought known and told the Chairman that he objected to the comment he made and the suggestion accompanying his remarks.. He had every right to do so, and I agree with him, Poor form from the top table. Very poor.
The longer this saga drags on, the more relieved I am to think that his tenure is coming to an end. |  |

IN affectionate remembrance of fan owned rochdale football club which died at Spotland on March 7th 2024

I thinkmthere was some confusion because there we some shares still to be counted. I think it arised because they said they had counted enough votes to carry the motions with some still left to count.
I think the guy thought that it was 75% of the total shareholding but in reality it was 75% of proxy and attendees shares. Any shareholder not attending and not sending in a proxy would be deemed as an abstention as there was no vote to count.
I wondered if the comment about facing the press if a no vote won was probably aimed at one of the larger shareholders who was miffed about the situation, once the trust vote was announced it seemed like a foregone conclusion.
So now, if there is more than one potential investor, we have to hope the Board choose wisely and not neccessarily just in favour of the largest financial bid...Its important that there is some " fit" and a long term plan too.... |  | | |

I'm struggling to find my copy of the Articles of Association - but out will be laid down in there just how to remove Members of the Board. I agree, someone with a vested interest should not be negotiating the sale. He's got what he wanted, now he should step aside. | | | |

And recognition should be made of those who're no longer with us
David Clough, Steve (Moggy) Murray and the generations of fans who've turned up, travelled, felt the joy and (more often) the heartache of being Dale
Support in my own family started in the 1920s
No recognition of that in the room tonight, so let it be said here | |

I wouldn't fly on any plane he was piloting...he has a history of only taking things down.
Let's face our good times have always been under the leadership of rochdale folk. It's outsiders who have caused us problems.
And for the first time in our history they can publish what they want as accounts...no longer any stamp of approval as to their accuracy.

Would it be down to the board to choose or shareholders? If it’s down to the board, this whole night should’ve been postponed given the fact that another LOI was presented to the board today. | |

My guess is that he will exchange at 0.22p - and sell when they reflect a true value - which won't take long. Realistically the shares could trade at double that when cash flow eases. Mr. Morris was 100% correct to place that question on the record and I too say 'well done' to him. | | | |

I hope the fans let him know what they think of him at the game.
It's just been one insult after another from him over the last few weeks.
No rochdalian would insult the fans like he has. You think of the struggles folks like Fred Ratcliffe faced keeping the club going. Never insulted the supporters like simple Simon. | | | |

Wouldn't it be the case that once someone has 90% control they would be able to pass this motion without any problem anyway if so inclined?
Personally I see the value in the audits. However I think that was a pointless motion. We either move on with new owners in which case the cost of an audit is hopefully not an issue or alternatively we can't play on Saturday and go bust, in which case what is there to audit going forward? | | | |

Considering the potential investors visiting on Saturday might it be sensible to have a positive, upbeat, welcoming atmosphere without any toxicity. The folk from the US might not know the full story and chants berating a board member who put over half a million pounds of his own money into the club to keep it going might make them reconsider investing. | |
