beag_teeets Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Thanks Tracey .... not good fell 1 am yesterday head butted a cabinet with Alzheimer's and Cancer lots of drugs. Talking utter nonsense and thinks he is in Wales and 1913 so well suited for the board at BP. What you think? Last sensible conversation we had was "Have latics signed that lad they should do. " He's got our best ever league finish to look forward to the lucky so and so! Hope he's ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego_Sideburns Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 The Club OS said “Mr Owen will remain as a Board Director of the company until a new representative of the Trust is appointed”. http://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/article/club-statement-barry-owen-2193466.aspx The rarely-wrong Chron says “He will remain on the board until a suitable replacement can be found”. http://www.oldham-chronicle.co.uk/news-features/10/oldham-athletic-news/89796/owen-explains-stance-as-taylor-exits-from-board Perhaps the Chron thinks the Club has to decide whether the new representative appointed by the Trust is suitable.

singe Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Owen is finished at the club, don't worry about that. If rumours are true, he enjoys a very good relationship with Corney, and Corney needs him more than he needs the Trust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaddy_Ender Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 If rumours are true, he enjoys a very good relationship with Corney, and Corney needs him more than he needs the Trust If Simon Corney needs Barry Owen we are well and truly :censored:ed then.

deyres42 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Does this strengthen or weaken the new Trust Chairman in their fan on the board bit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie_J Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Barry's staying on the Board now. Which is not what was indicated in the previous statement. http://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/article/owen-to-continue-to-serve-on-board-of-directors-2217559.aspx Think we all knew that was coming. Now he can continue doing what he's been doing for years, without the disingenuous Trust Chairman tag. I've thought for years that the Trust meant little more to Barry than the leg up he needed to get to the Boardroom level of football. I'm certainly no less convinced now.

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Barry presided over a supporters trust that failed to file accounts for seven years. He should not be on the board of anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losesome Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 So he has achieved what he ultimately wanted , Can't for the life of my see what he can possibly offer the football club , fans or anything else connected to the club as a director , unless it is match day traffic he is directing. Makes the club look a bigger shambles than it already is !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Does this strengthen or weaken the new Trust Chairman in their fan on the board bit? I think we can all safely say that the 'fan on the board' notion is never going to happen in light of today's findings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddySmoker Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 (edited) I think we can all safely say that the 'fan on the board' notion is never going to happen in light of today's findings. Very true. Is there any purpose of the Trust? Edited January 21, 2015 by ChaddySmoker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaticMark Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Well, the previous statement lasted 12 days! "Following the announcement that Barry Owen has resigned as Chair of Trust Oldham, Oldham Athletic (2004) AFC Limited can confirm that Mr Owen will remain as a Board Director of the company until a new representative of the Trust is appointed." http://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/article/club-statement-barry-owen-2193466.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
