Queens New Board Member

Early doors yet for McLinden but first impressions not good for me.
Last thing we need is another person with a personality like Hewitson and hopeless at PR.

Can anyone enlighten us as to what has allegedly happened?

I’ve heard he showed a complete disrespect to 2/3 local businessman who were willing to help him out on the board. Arranging a meeting then cancelling it at short notice with no explanation given.

Over to Mr McLinden to provide an explanation, - at least to the local business people.

If ever you need an example of a business with a snapped rudder....

A Board on the way out who have no defined replacements bar one appointment (and seemingly rejecting a local consortium due to demands of new director)
A Manager who has completely failed to deliver and waiting on receiving his jotters on Saturday evening/Sunday morning (hopefully)
Stadium in need of investment and some basic HSE interventions
Tanner Fund folding due to various issues
Back to Back annual financial losses
And this is only a few points that are `glaringly obvious to the eye. I hope that there is further news on the board front imminently so things can start to be addressed and next season planned for. Its a full restart that is needed and if the board (new or old) do not sanction the sacking of MB, then I genuinely am concerned for the support next season. The financial losses (imho) can only be addressed by the new board engaging fully with the fans and making them feel part of the kirk and getting them gee'd up for next season in a positive manner. If they fail to sack MB and they continue to fart about with attracting new board members (with local content) those fans that have been lost in this last couple of seasons (and beyond) will not return....simple fact.
