I'm drowning in all this intrigue - especially as nothing is actually happening.

Well I guess if anyone should know an inept board when they see one it'd be him... must be novel for him to see one from the outside instead of the inside though...

Yeah, I found that interesting too.

If the board did this deliberately, and it wasn't just an alarming coincidence, it probably points to a few things:

1) That the rest of the board considers the leaks came from one (or both) of those two; or
2) That they are close to Brown and the alternative ticket and can't be trusted; and
3) That they might be removed should the coup fail (although I'd doubt the current board would have the strength to do this)

The board has to seriously have a look at what mandate it now has from the members to be doing anything

Oops. I did say if it isn't a coincidence, so I did cover myself, but I'll get down off the soap box now :)

A curve has every right to demand that it is a circle, but a circle does not demand anything that will result in it being a curve.
