Dream on..... He's just avoiding the inevitable abuse he would suffer from a small but vocal group of anti-Lowe supporters who have bought a share or two for no other reason that to be able to attend the AGM and hurl vitriol at the favourite target (and his new found ally) Hate to disappoint you but the AGM will be a total non-event.

Me thinks that Mikey should therefore take the opportunity in his programme notes to let the masses know why he won't be there.... No showing the fans' forum AND the AGM of the PLC??? Hardly the actions of a responsible Board Member and Football Chairman is it? Oh, OB, I think you'll find there's more than just a couple of shareholders that disapprove of Lowe and Wilde - they may like to think that the more 'vocal' will be highlighted (as they were last year) - but you don't have to stand up and raise questions to get your point across.

St Marco Posted 16 December, 2008 Share Posted 16 December, 2008 To be fair though he is more to blame with what is going on then anyone else and deserves a bit of **** thrown at him. Wilde knows the fans think of him as stabbing them in the back with his decision to support Lowe. Apparently his firm is about to go under so maybe he is out trying to sell his shares?

ART Posted 16 December, 2008 Share Posted 16 December, 2008 Just for once, if the usual unreliable rumour mongerer is correct, maybe Mike Wilde is spending Christmas in Singapore with his wife's family. Not a bad place to be at Christmastime. Or, maybe like some on here he feels he's a jinx when he attends games and has agreed to let Rupert hog the limelight.

Mole Posted 16 December, 2008 Share Posted 16 December, 2008 Maybe he´s run out days he´s allowed in the country or perhaps he´s opening a new hotel.:confused: If this is true Wilde needs to get Ruperts permission to give us an explanation.

I know the motion will be passed, but at least I have done my bit to show that there are people who do not agree with them being directors. I was planning to go, but had no intention of throwing insults (or rotten tomatoes) so decided as it would be a non-event just to vote by proxy instead.

Forget 'they' - we're talking about only one person here. Lowe's other supporters have always been his allies, whereas Wilde is the man who was instrumental in his ousting. Personally - and this is purely my own opinion - I think it's largely a case of Wilde wanting to get Crouch back for the latter's part in his own ousting. Come on over baby, whole lotta ousting goin' on.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggest individual shareholder in SLH and Football Chairman of SFC decides he cannot be bothered to attend the first AGM after a fractious and unpopular board change. Says it all, really..... Who cares if he doesn't show up. I very much doubt that if he did show up it would change the minds of the whiners, whingers and moaners like you two. I think I'd be waiting a bloody long time for a "thanks for coming to see us" post from the likes of you. I don't blame him for bailing out, and leaving the grizzling fishwives to carp on and on about how the club has been killed and all that rot. If you want Lowe and Wilde out, do something about it yourself. And make no mistake, I don't like Wilde and I certainly don't like Lowe and I have been 100% against the appointment of JP and co from day one. I want Lowe gone tomorrow, but know the only thing that will get them gone is someone with the cash to buy the lot of them out, or a probably managed mass fan campaign to get them out. The first is not on the horizon and the people who might organise the second seem to content to whine on here and do nothing these days, so that aint happening either. (Alpine, I know you have said before you have no desire to "do" anything which actually is fair play and I support it - neither do I) So enough grizzle, and maybe a bit of action, chaps.

Agree we need action but perhaps it would be a start if shareholders could be given the chance to ask questions to the Chairman at an AGM - surely that is not too much to ask. It is, after all, the only time in a 12 month period that people who have invested in the club can directly look the men who run the club in the eye and express a view. I wanted to go specifically to ask Wilde if it was true that he made the club "pick up the invoice" for the expenses he incurred in his PR campaign to oust Lowe. I hear the sum involved was more than a quarter of a million pounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or how much more of a salary he draws than the last Chairmen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would be valid questions too but I am intrigued why Wilde felt it OK to make the club foot the bill HE incurred in the build up to the EGM. If Lowe had done that there would have been an outcry.
