Rae: We May Widen Fan Representation

Douglas Rae (pictured, left) has used the club's official website to say that they are considering widening supporter representation on the board because the Greenock Morton Supporters' Society (aka the Supporters' Trust) only respresents Trust members and not the support as a whole.

The item is a reply to the story that appeared in yesterday's Greenock Telegraph that suggested Rae had decided against accepting another Trust member onto the board in place of Jim McColl - the current board member who will resign at the AGM in December.

Inviting wider fan representation can only be seen as a good thing - as long as the respresentation is not withdrawn if the fans' representative dares to question or criticise the club. It will be interesting to learn the outcome of the discussions after the next board meeting.
