I met with the Chairman this morning to announce my retirement from the Board of Directors at Albion Rovers Football Club. I have been a member of the Board for over 6 years – and three of those I served as Chairman. In the last six years I have worked tirelessly in seeing the club through challenging times both on and off the field.
It has been a great privilege to serve as a director and as chairman of the team I love. I now look forward to taking up other interests that have been put on hold since my retirement from paid employment in 2016.
I feel things are much more secure financially than they were a few years ago and give a platform for prudent progress to be made.
I would like to thank all those who have worked with me during this time to ensure our beloved Rovers continue in senior football. I will continue to be a supporter, season ticket holder, shareholder and ambassador for the club, taking a keen interest in all things Albion Rovers.
Regards Ronnie

Ronnie, we may not always have agreed on what is best for OUR club, but I know that you put your heart and soul - and no doubt many sleepless nights into the job - as Chairman and Director. You have ALWAYS been a supporter of the club and in the bad times I think of the phrase `cometh the hour, cometh the man, you were that man, and as you say as you move on, things are now more secure. Thank you.

I would say enjoy the break, Ronnie, but suspect Isabelle might have stuff she wants done.

The supporters far and near owe you a debt of gratitude for your devotion/time and effort in guiding the club through a difficult spell. Without people like yourself Albion Rovers would only have been a distant memory in the nostalgic footnotes of Scottish Football - we should all cherish our devoted custodians of this club.
