The Dons Trust is disappointed to announce that Simon Hood will not be able to take his seat on the DTB at the upcoming AGM.
On the 3rd November Simon informed the secretary of the Trust a potential conflict of interest.
Simon declared the potential that he may be involved in consortium purchasing another football club.
The secretary informed Simon that this would prevent him from taking up his seat on the DTB in line with the EFL regulations. (LINK)
Following further dialogue with Simon, he confirmed on the 19th November that he wished to pursue the opportunity with another club and would therefore not be taking up his board seat.
The DTB wish Simon all the best for his future projects and thank him for his efforts on the board earlier this year.
In line with our election rules this vacancy will be filled after the AGM using the casual vacancy mechanism.
George Jones
Secretary
