Quote: mish "I'm sorry but even though I'd like to believe John left because of his other commitments I don't think it's true. I didn't think it before and now after reading the club statement I'm certain it's for other reasons.
[iLeigh Centurions would like to thank John Roddy who has today resigned from his role as Chairman and Director.
The Club would like to take this opportunity of wishing John well in the future and thank him for his contributions on the Board. He was a very good figurehead, and earned respect from inside and outside the Leigh Club for his authoritative and dignified approach to the role as Chairman.[/i
Not very convincing is it? Where is the quote from one of the other directors thanking him for his service? Where is the quote from John himself telling us that his work commitments leave him unable to devote enough time to the club?
I don't believe it for a moment.'"
It's a very brief statement to cover the departure of a major figure at the club. Still, it's miles better, grammatically, than Fev's statement, this week!
No idea why John has departed, but his replacement needs to be someone who will be as respected and professional as he has been. I wonder who it will be?
