V8Supercars AGM Points of Interest (Merged)

Super Thursday... 8th November...

... where the 17 franchise licence slot owners get in a room and decide the future of the sport.....

I dont think MN is overplaying this...

.. the discussions to be had allegedly include:
- An election to the TEGA/VESA boards of the teams' Ford and Holden members' (predicted to be totally new)
- A decision as to whether TEGA/VESA will become one merged entity
- A decision as to the disposition of Mr O'Reilly's very expensive contract
- Discussion around the continuation of Mr Cochrane

... plus the usual scrapes and twiddles that go on at an AGM.

MN suggests there may be blood on the carpet... I wonder where the numbers lay... it could be very interesting

Will be interesting to see which heads don't appear, and which appear bruised and bloodied, at the Clipsal 500 Launch on Friday....

They may not have a Chairman or a GM or a board....

What's Dr John doing on Friday... he might get the "none of the above" vote

Meanwhile.. in MeN today... Mr O'reilly is believed to have been permanently "eliminated" from the TEGA board, and has reportedly been offered a settlement... presumably from the GM, TEGA position....

Could end up in court... like most serious disagreements within TEGA

So the TEGA board is now 5 strong, looking for a 6th

Ford: R.Stone (SBR), T.Edwards (FPR)
Holden: L.Perkins (JDR), P.Morris (PMM)
Independent Chair: R.Cook

Now why would you look to unbalance the board in numbers by bringing in one more? Unless at the same time this happens, S&EL gets a seat at the revised/merged TEGA/VESA table... for their GM in Mr Cattach or their chairman Mr Cochrane...

Is this today's mega announcement?

If TEGA own 75% of VESA, I can't see how a combined board would work, TEGA needs to sit on the VESA board only

If the new crumb bum TEEGA/V8SA board has 8 places on it, there will need to be 6 from the teams, and 2 from Cocho's mob

Plus maybe an independent chair.

So TEEGA needs to pony up another 2 directors. Or maybe appoint a 3rd team player from each maker. Or leave the space free for those Japanese blokes from Altona.
