I understand it's a tongue in cheek comment but in reality, I'm not sure too many were "appointed" from a wide field. Several over recent years have been the only ones willing to put their hands up.
I suspect a lot off supporters are confused about what being a board member or President actually entails. I've read posts where people believe they're paid employees. There are benefits but it's also about putting up a shitload of your time and resources to assist the club. Time and resources you could be providing to your family, career or anything else instead.
Much like you and many others do with TC, Jars and the many other silent contributors do on Blueseum or people like Cazzesman did in the recruiting space. It's easy for people who give @#$%&! all to criticise those who give a lot.
A lot of past board members have made mistakes but I'm reluctant to shitcan volunteers who have made the effort for the club.

As I mentioned earlier, it's the perfect time for someone to cherry pick the role when success is possible. Hopefully we get the best person with the right credentials and the right intentions. Don't narrow the field down by 50% because you want a specific gender without serious basis.

Do we have any word or expectation on when we might have a successor appointed?
