    I wouldn't, it would probably be another praising session explaining how great a job is being done and how happy they are with a good chance of a pay rise on top.

    reporting to the board and attending board meetings are two totally different things. every manager in the world reports to the board through meetings specifically set up for that agenda, but attending a board meeting specifically FOR the board is different. and thats why wenger ultimately has more control.

    I have attended Board meetings for seven or eight different organisations and was a member of none of those boards. For some I was there for the entire meetings, for others I attended for specific agenda items. I also attend the Audit Committees for those Boards. The Audit Committee is a sub committee of the Board. At the audit committees I also have the opportunity to request a closed session with the members of the AC. I've never exercised that option.

    I could however just send papers to the Board, but that would inhibit discussion and delay the answering of any questions they may have on the material. So for issues that are complex or strategically important, the Board will call me and/or others to attend.

    Attending the board and being a member of the board are two entirely different things. As I said, your outrage in this is misplaced.

    yeah thanks for taking the opportunity to try and big yourself up but as i mentioned in my original post and also my second post, none of your business tosh relates to the footballing world, which i was specifically referring to.

    but you can ignore that for a third consecutive time and keep making misguided points. actually keep going until you hit 4, we'll pretend we're playing connect four.

    So you think Stan, billionnaire, tycoon, businessman and clearly ruthless to absolute fuck, entertains Wenger?

    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    I'm pointing out how wrong you are. The fact that Clubs have boards mean they are carrying out the functions of a board - this should not really need to be explained. The board then whether it is a board of a football club, bank, government department, retailer or whatever can then call whoever it wants to attend that board. It is good practice to have employeees, particularly senior employees called to appear before the board, report to, account for activities or advise the board to support its decision making responsibilities.


    Who else other than the Manager in control of your multi million pound assts (Arsenal's values not mine) to report to the Board? I'd be fucking gobsmacked if other managers never attended their club's board meetings. And as has already been established - Wenger ATTENDS board meetings but IS NOT on the Board and therefore plays no part in the board's decision making capacity other than to provide his advice to it.

    Also you did also mention Boards in general in one of your posts, and tried to explain (wrongly) what it meant when Wenger attended Board meetings. But no matter.

    Your outrage is misplaced.

    you're overanalysing everything as usual.

    we have board meetings.

    wenger attends them.

    they are for the board and not the manager.

    but at our club the manager attends.

    shows his control compared to managers at other clubs.

    simple.

    Nope I replied in simple terms to this:

    why is he attending board meetings? what manager in the footballing world is allowed to do that? he's basically a board member ffs
    And you can't grasp the concept of a Board.
