McKennan Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 You cannot miss him. He sits in the JH surrounded by his North West Supporters Bus agents and acolytes, plotting the downfall of the board, the ruin of the club and the destruction of the Jags Trust. I'll be there in a couple of weeks to wash his feet and sacrifice a goat in his honour. Did he use any Latin in the interview, Lindau?

The Incredible Adam Spark Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 Gordon Peden - nice guy, vaguely pompous, best intentions of the club at heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Paul Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 I have met him actually on a number of occasions. I think it was the face, coupled with his machiavellian streak. In short, a petty bureaucrat who could be quite ruthless on occasion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggy1967 Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 To be fair, nobody was questioning his fan credentials... Don't doubt the man myself, yet I have met him on numerous occasions ! Yes he has an arrogance that can annoy some ! But Thistle fans should look beyond this. Feel the thread is more than harsh !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Paul Posted October 8, 2010 Report Share Posted October 8, 2010 (edited) Don't doubt the man myself, yet I have met him on numerous occasions ! Yes he has an arrogance that can annoy some ! But Thistle fans should look beyond this. Feel the thread is more than harsh !! Nope, think I've been quite restrained. I'll always remember the "Meet the Board" night from a couple of years ago when Gordon was called out on his treatment of Kenny Arthur. His response was breathtakingly arrogant and seemed to miss the point that while every Jags fan is entitled to their opinions (positive or negative), letting them intrude on your professional capacity as a board member is just plain wrong. Wether you think Kenny Arthur was a good or a bad player for Thistle is up to you, that doesn't justify going out of your way to snub him as he's about to leave the Club that he's served for 11 years. That shows the petty side of the man. Edited October 8, 2010 by Mister Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McKennan Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 No, he wasn't called out at the meeting. A remark he made about Kenny Arthur's goalkeeping talents probably six months before that meeting ever took place was cast up at him. It has nothing to do with Q&A and everything to do with someone making a speech. Given the hammering some of our players get on here I look forward to many similarly heated exchanges in the years ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKennan Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 A youthful indiscretion perhaps, Will. You're a gentleman of some 'life experience', which club director from the Edwardian period deserves flayed on the forum now we're out of modern-day targets for the meantime?

Hmmm, are you planning on coming back for a while? If so, we could stick you on the NW bus for away games and get you nominated for the Trust Board Rep position and take it from there?

GOVAN JAG Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Yes, it is. Thought that. I never met the guy but i hated his fanzine. It was just doom and gloom negeativity. And that was when we were doing well in the Premier league to. I was more a ''sick in the basin'' man myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
