As long as it's not one of those fan token things. Correct https://ptfc.co.uk/ptfc-news/joint-statement-on-progress-towards-transfer-of-majority-shareholding-to-fans/ "Despite the constraints of the pandemic, The Jags Foundation (TJF) and Three Black Cats (3BC) have continued to work constructively and positively over the way forward towards fan ownership. As a result, a timetable and associate actions have now been agreed between TJF and 3BC, with the support of the Partick Thistle Board. The proposed date for the transfer of the majority shareholding to fans and land to the Club is set for June 2022.

VictorOnopko Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Clearly some geat excitement being generated among the fanbase with this latest announcement. Anyone know if this means Jacqui Low will have left the club by July 2022? is Paul Goodwin still involved? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerly Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 No doubt jlow will become a director on the board to oversee the transition never to be removed, as for mr Goodwin haven’t seen I’m in ages he will no doubt turn up to celebrate on the great day only to disappear as we become a big team in the seaside league -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, I'm a bit puzzled by this section in today's club statement - "At the point the shares are handed over, a further TJF Director would be added, again subject to the agreement of the Club Board." As majority shareholder, The Jags Foundation could remove the. Club Board members (Including Jacqui Low) and appoint replacements. The agreement of the current Club Board would/should not be required. AFAIK Paul Goodwin is not, and has never been, involved with 3BC or TJF. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Paul Goodwin’s thing was called Thistleforever, was it not? No idea if he’s involved in the Jags Foundation or not. If TJF are learning how to run a club from Jacqui Low and Gerry Britton, then I’m sure it’ll be a rip roaring success… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a sneaky suspicion they will annoint her the grand high chief of Firhill and build her a statue! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baba douche Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 You might not like her, but things have been run well since the Caldwell disaster. You don't have to like people that work for you if they do their job right. She'll probably be kept on as a director, unless she reads the room and declines the offer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last summer was, in its entirety, a fucking shambles. Statement after statement of utter pish, proposing reconstruction while accusing everyone else of self interest, messaging fans telling them how to create banners having a go at everyone without getting the club into trouble. It was all an absolutely dreadful look for the club. Then there was the stuff about her threatening legal action because David Beattie said that she’d given Gary fucking Caldwell a completely unsustainable budget, and so he’d had to cancel team busses and stuff to pay for it. And appointing Gary Caldwell because he could use a PowerPoint presentation. She’s bad at her job, and very, very dislikeable. Should be hounded out the club as a matter of urgency. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The day she’s permanently gone from this club can’t come soon enough. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the Board of Directors can do that in the normal course of events. The majority owner could call an EGM and propose the removal of directors and appointment of others though of course. And it would win, because it's the majority owner. And knowing that, it's pretty unlikely the Board would resist the request to appoint / resign directors because it's just pointless admin and cost. Never the less, technically, the statement is accurate. Between General Meetings only the existing Board can appoint new directors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but the club statement suggests that the status quo will continue. The only difference is that TJF will have two directors on the Club Board after the handover. That is wishful thinking. Jacqui Low is not a popular Chairman after the Caldwell disaster. The TJF will be under pressure from its membership to remove her and her cronies. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has been an utter shambles and a severe embarrassment to the club, with her antics. And remember she appointed Caldwell. And it was here successors that binned him and brought McCall in, before her vanity brought her back with Colin Whyte's cash.

Pie Of The Month Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Mayo called up to the Scotland u21s squad so will miss the Ayr game in a couple of weeks time. Rudden not involved this time which is ideal considering he'd potentially be replaced by the likes of McIver if he was gone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Disappointing as the defence has looked better with Lewis and Olatunji in the middle. If we start conceding and not scoring we could be up the proverbial creek with no paddle... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
