Pawn did not want a fan on the board he would have to have one as part of the fan led review now or later.
Whoever is in the position of Fan director is in a no win situation. That person cannot divulge confidential information the same as none of us can reveal the things we see or hear within the companies we work for, and it’s worse for those in managerial roles.
At the moment Ernest is not interested in anything except off loading the club,so he won’t be listening only talking to update fellow board members on what is really happening behind the scenes. We can all speculate but those in the know are bound by confidentiality and rightfully so.
If any Fan director of any club breaks trust they would lose the respect of those giving the information and many of those recieving that information.
The Fan director when the opportunity arises will be telling Ernest how it is in a tactful way. Ernest is a small man, who likes to bully people especially those with lesser means, that’s virtually all of us. He does not like to be challenged either and as a result he behaves in a manner which makes one question the level of his intelligence and therefore he needs handling carefully. Look at how he has treated Bax Mell and the local rag.
Trying to goad publicly a Fan director won’t make them reveal things either, if they did we would not respect or trust them and neither would any board or chairman of any club.
The role under the current tenure, with all the constraints and the many negatives on and off the field is pure poison and would be for any Fan. Luckily our one has thick skin and broad shoulders, his time will come when and if the club is ever freed from the tyranny that is Ernest Pawn.
