Richard Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I wanted Dennis Mortimer on the board as the "football adviser". I like Brian a lot though and one thing he cares about the club, genuinely he does. In the main the fan base care about him . So as an attempt by the management to introduce someone to help the club and fanbase reconnect a bit more it is not a bad attempt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted April 5, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 5, 2016 Still unsure what his goalscoring record has to do with his role as an advisor on the board..? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(sometimes I was Giddy, too, or Sid, but mainly BL) Anyone remember Brian Godfrey? or Barry Hole I used to love watching Willie Anderson 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 (edited) Just thinking today that Brian may have a similar role to play as the great Fredrick Rinder at Villa. A man brought back to the board after relegation in the 30s who appointed a far thinking football coach in Jimmy Hogan, who got Villa promoted. A similar result again would be great.

I was regular pal to Andy Gray in my youth and he absolutely revered him....He would often state what a tremendous player he was to play alongside. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thunderball Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 As long as Little doesn't resign we may have hope. If he does, then something is very, very rotten. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an advisor, and not a board member - his input is smaller and perhaps he doesn't need to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briny_ear Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I think there has been talk of Little's role finishing at the end of the season, which isn't far away. (Although, given the current shenanigans, it's interesting to speculate on who spread that idea - the ones who have just departed or the ones still standing?) So maybe Little doesn't feel the need to resign. But I would love him to write a letter nonetheless explaining why he is staying - why he feels it's OK to stay on while two of his fellow football board members felt there were issues so fundamental they had to resign forthwith. Would be an interesting read! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
