Tuesday evening was over three days ago and before the Chairman announced via twitter he had enough, sorry was standing down prior to any formal announcement.

Can we not make Frank walk round dressed as a huge pint of beer?
About time this thread had some humour.

You just did mate, and if Rob does go as rumoured this thread may come back to haunt you.
Let's hope whatever is going on gets resolved ASAP and what looked a steady ship until recently can be stabilised and the feel good factor can be continued.
The tone of Andy's recent comments suggests he isn't as happy as he once was, he has been a major part of getting the community behind this club and getting the town buzzing and re engaged I am crossing my fingers this guy doesn't head for the door next.

| Quote: Chancellor Palpatine "Either would be a great choice.
However does it really matter. If the Chelsea fc chairman (Bruce buck) left I'm sure not many fans would be that concerned. If the owner left (Abramovich) most would be extremely worried.
John did a great job in steering the new board, but for whatever reason he's left. Well done john for a job well done & what a great bloke he is.
For me the more worrying thing is the comments on this unofficial chat room by directors of the club, firstly Neil Wilcox praised three directors for their good work( but excluded Andy mazey ) Andy responded that he wasn't pleased with this comment.
Some fans have suggested Andy as chairman but he 's responded that it may not be possible. What's happening?
We beLeighve.'"
No dramas mate.
As it's an unofficial chat room as you call it then the comments made can't be viewed as official from the club. I will always have my views as a fan and beliefs regardless of being involved or not and when I feel need will express them, just the way I am sorry if this offends anyone.
I was annoyed Neil chose to highlight individuals from what is primarily a team effort. To intimate any one person is or has been any more important than another is wrong and that's why I pulled him up on it. For the record I was annoyed not for myself as the people who read this know what I do and am about but for people like Steve Openshaw who I will stand by my comment has probably put more hours in that club in the last 12 months than anyone else and also people Like Alan Platt, Trevor Barton etc who make up a great team and like everyone else invest time and money for the live of the club.
It was wrong to single out individuals from a team but I don't believe Neil meant anything by it and as far as I'm concerned it's not an issue.
Cheers
Andy

| The thing that worries me most is that I don't believe the board are being as open and transparent as they would lead us to believe (what happened to 'We're all in this together')?.
If we're going back to the days of secrecy and everything being done behind closed doors, then they should come out and tell us that it's none of our business, but if they're still keen to lead us to believe that we're all in this together, I think we should be told what's going on and who's in charge down there.

I've exchanged emails with Rob this morning and he has not left the club this is correct.

| Mish you aren't half doing some poopooh stirring on this, what is your objective?
I see it as the chairman steps down, statements are issued and the club restructures and we move on
Yet we Have had the biz makers telling us rob has walked and he hasn't, I simply don't get it This is such an important year and we are in such a great position?
Are some folk happier when we are a losing on the pitch and in financial disaster?

How many of those involved in the financial disaster are going to be on the BOD, has the new broom not been as efficient as it was first thought?

| I can't understand why these rumours are bring given such credence.
I'm sure the club will inform us in due course of any changes to governance at the club, and we as fans can take it from there.
Trying to figure out if we like the changes when we're not even sure if they go beyond a change of Chairman seems like a waste of energy, all whilst generating negativity around the club.
If people want to keep up the gossiping then that's fine with me, but I really don't understand it.

Something has 'gone off' in the boardroom. The chairman has gone and other directors are not happy with a recent turn of events. That is a fact.
Supporters are rightly concerned and an unofficial fans forum is the outlet for fans to discuss it all. The reason people are showing concern is not because we are losing or in financial difficulty. It is because we have come so far and the ultimate goal is within sight, it would be a travesty to see it all undone now on the back of a power struggle. Nothing was broke as far as I could see, it didn't need fixing. The structure was working so well.
We were all in this together.

Aside from the Chairman going, can you provide any evidence of any of the rest of your statement being fact?
