Important to remember it was Burgess & old board that gave him the contract. Can't blame him for taking it, although, probably should have left by mutual consent earlier IMO
Oh yes I know it was the old board & burgess, the fact that we got the fa contract out after a “few weeks getting to know him” was just so unprofessional.Ricky330 wrote: Fri Jan 27, 2023 8:20 pmImportant to remember it was Burgess & old board that gave him the contract.

I don't think players or managers should be attending the EGM's. Rich Maxwell also attended, if fans have got some critical comments to make they may not feel as free to make them.Olly wrote: Fri Jan 27, 2023 9:09 pm I like that he came to the EGM and showed an interest in the club, how many other players did that? Good luck to him.

I understand that, but at the EGM there were concerns about RM, with him being there (even as a member) it probably put some off putting their opinion forward about the management situation at the time. We all know what a people person Richard was, would have been sitting in his chair scowling at anyone who dared to criticise him!rdusher wrote: Fri Jan 27, 2023 9:58 pmDon't agree with this.Adrian wrote: Fri Jan 27, 2023 9:24 pmI don't think players or managers should be attending the EGM's.

Both Maxwell and Fossen attended the EGM that night as members and part owners of our football club.
The beauty of our club is that every member has the right and the platform to put forward their view on how the club is governed and how we move forward.
Personally I respect the fact Matt Fossen attended and, despite the public kicking he was receiving at the time, Richard Maxwell attended the EGM that evening as a fan, member and part owner of our club.
I'd never like to see us move towards a dynamic that meant we pick and choose which members are allowed to air their view
