Welcome Chris to the board sounds like some with plenty of experience working in football. once he gas settled in, my first question I would like him to voice for us fans would be an update on Stadium situation. To be honest it would probably stop there too. What?

I genuinely look forward to seeing how this will somehow be turned into a negative. You're welcome. That’s all we need, more Martin Starnes clones walking around in their cheap tweedesque jackets waiting for abuse

This seems like absolutely crazy timing. Employing one of Joey's mates right in the middle of his trial for assault?? Jesus wept. Makes perfect sense. The new director's company has worked with the National Probation Service and H.M.Prison Service. Oh my god he’s going to be his parole officer isn’t he 😂

" His role as an independent, non-executive Director will see added transparency at the Board level, with Chris taking on a liaison role with various Supporter's groups ensuring fans voices can be heard at the top level." If he comes on here and calls me a knob hes f**king history. He’d have a valid point though 😃

Special Forces?. If he has worked with U.S. Seal teams. He may be able to teach our players how to control the ball on their noses. A unique skill.

"We worked with him at Fleetwood in the early process to come in and fully understand the structure of the club," Barton explained.
"One of his key things is he’s the guy who built the Ebola hospitals to stop the spread of Ebola in Sierra Leone.
"He’s massive in terms of infrastructure and helping us understand how departments work with each other, and he was a key influencer of us being successful at Fleetwood and leaving Fleetwood in a much better place than when we found it, not only on the pitch, but off it in the business aspect.
"That’s the key. For me it’s not just about improving performance on the pitch. It’s massive and I wish I could come in and my only focus was the players and the pitch, but this project isn’t that and it will be something that I will use going forward in my managerial career and it’s something as a young coach in my third year that will stand me in great stead for getting the best out of myself as a manager and pushing myself to the highest possible level I can."

We've gone from garnerball to military disciplines in the space of months.... Quite some u-turn.... And that's the worrying bit for me, it feels like we are just rolling the dice all the time. Recently we keep landing on 1, maybe this time it will be a 6? Who knows?!

Well it is clear that with this appointment to the board, that what ever the outcome of the court case JB won't be going anywhere now he has his mate on board.

Independent of whom...thought he was one of Joey's mates he called in? Seems a good guy on paper to be fair but do wonder if it might be easier if Wael just gave the club to Joey.

Not going to be a paid employee though so seems low risk to me if it doesn’t work out.

Potentially a very good appointment and as such it should be welcomed.
However the board still has no-one who really understands what's it's like to be a lifelong Gashead. That's important when we hear about the board talking about 'our DNA'.
And this appointment totally neuters what's left of the SC and the share scheme into which a fair few supporters put money over the years in return for two seats on the board (which is now a WAQ-diluted 2% stake and no representation as per the share scheme agreement).
