The Real PapaBear 0 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Doesn't bother me. He was a very good CEO for us. A man of vision and integrity, honesty - would do for me, regardless of who he supports. That's kinda what i was alluding to - we badly need people of that calibre now; ideally bluenoses, but if not, so be it - as long as they are men, or women, or integrity and ability. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I met him a few years back when he was back to doing basic joinery work for a neighbouring business. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy steel 0 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I'll never forget the night we won the league at Pittodrie, back in '87. I never thought we would win the league, that's how bad we were when I was growing up; the absolute icing on the cake was David Holmes, on Sportscene that night, toasting the Rangers and the fans, with a wee tear in his eye. I was crying my eyes out. He might not be a Rangers man but he did a bloody good impression of one, I'll tell you that! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,151 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I'm not enthused by Longmuir personally though his experience and contacts may be useful. However, I wasn't convinced by him over the last 12-18months and I think we could do better. I would say it's fair to say that we'll struggle to attract high calibre candidates until the situation is stabilised. Purslow and Blin appear solid but I guess they depend on just how closely King wants to be involved with McColl. I would suggest Blin may be more likely to be chairman than anything else. A few knowledgeable people have suggested to me he wouldn't fancy the FD role alone. How that figures into King's plans I don't know but even he would agree his SA base may make his chairmanship less effective. Perhaps the club may explore a new boardroom route as we did seem to touch on slightly with Mather as COO/President? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
