Anyone know of these and if they are ‘supporters’ of the club? Nice to see they are local and were nominated by shareholders.
Good to see change happening at the club. |  | |  |

All locally based. Two are season ticket holders. One was already a shareholder who's been going for as long as I can remember. |  |

Whilst these new directors (if confirmed) are to be welcomed as having been put forward by prominent shareholders outside the Board, unless the removal of David Bottomley from the club entirely is pursued with vigour at the earliest opportunity i'll not be in the least impressed
It's to be hoped that in talking to the existing three members of the Board, there's been no agreement to retain the abject services of DB as part of the conditions for joining |  |

Good. Selecting a new chairmen might be tricky, perhaps they should appoint someone to simply be a figurehead for the short term and then see which of the new people has the right demeanour for the job. Maybe on of the major shareholders who doesn't want to be full time back on the board. |  | | |

Music to my ears.
Seeing how DB calls himself a supporter I wasn’t sure what it meant for the new directors. Nice to see they have an interest in the club that isn’t financial. | | | |

I only know one of them and he's definitely a supporter who was there in Barrow and Parkin's days, maybe even earlier.
It might be just as well Cheltenham got promoted though... |  |

Well done to the current board for appointing what seems to be a popular choice of directors. |  | | |

Dave seems to be the only person releasing YouTube content for the club at the moment. In fact it might be the only media currently being produced for the club. | |

Yes |
Unbelievable it took outside interests to bring him to the attention of the club then
You'd have thought they might at least have had a conversation with him to gauge his reaction | |

Both I would say.
On the new directors. It would have been nice to get more details about who they are what they bring to the club what responsibilities etc they'll take on. Hopefully we get this in the next few days and weeks. | |

The news is welcome and encouraging. We've taken our eyes off the pot since Dunphy left and have seen a once proud and upstanding Boardroom disintegrate into a squalid, poisonous den of rancour. One by one, they're being removed purely due to fan and shareholder diligence.
They know we know pretty much everything, which is why I'm more than happy to reword accurately the statement they put out yesterday.
It should read like this....
"Rochdale Football Club would like to inform supporters of the following changes to the board of directors…
Following the departure of David Bottomley and Graham Rawlinson from the board of directors last week, Andrew Kelly, Tony Pockney and Nick Grindrod have finally, but reluctantly, agreed to do the right thing and invite three new directors onto the board.
We are pleased to announce that Simon Gauge, Richard Knight and Jamie Sarsfield have had their offers to become directors accepted, and they will join the board imminently, subject to passing EFL Director tests, along with meeting several other conditions, which we expect to happen in the coming days.
We hope to make an announcement regarding a fourth candidate very soon.
All three are local businessmen and fans of the club, who were presented to the club following tireless work from a former Director and club employee who were motivated by wanting to do right by their club.
Rochdale Football Club would like to thank all those concerned for helping to make the necessary changes." [Post edited 9 Jun 2021 10:33]

Bizarrely, the story released yesterday has slipped off the front page of the official site.
You've already got to go looking for it.
So, if you're scratching your head, it's here!

Planting pansies, seeing the jackpot winner has not been won again, and a Euro draw are suddenly more important that fundamental change in the Boardroom.
It's clear there's still more work to be done. | |
