Robin Brown has resigned as VP following disagreements with Nixon and also disrespectful way Lapping was treated in statement. Club says the other VPs all remain in place but declined to comment on RB's comments.
Bit of a nothing story as most of it already reported elsewhere Hardly worth the 65p for a News and Star

Robin Brown was the type of person we needed associated with the club. Successful, ambitious and a nice person.

No surprise he resigned and to disassociate himself from the regime

What role does a VP carry out? Fair play to Mr Brown for sticking to his principles. Will he be missed?

Bought it when I saw it on the board this morning. Wasn't a great deal to it but hopefully if he feels strongly enough to walk then he feels strongly enough to give an in-depth interview to the News and Star in which he'll go into some detail about the state of things at board level in the club. Maybe even some insight into Nixon's thoughts on the fans. Hopefully he can be in a bit of a position to drum up some more hate against this pair of f*cking parasites.

'Businessman Robin Brown has quit as vice-president of Carlisle United – citing “disagreements” with managing director John Nixon'.

Seems strange to quit over disagreements with Nixon when Nixon is supposed to quit tomorrow?

An interview with Mr Brown could be very interesting! Here's hoping...

Because everyone at board level knows that Nixon isn't actually quitting. Just changing his job title in the hope that he can put someone else in the firing line. This odious c*nt will still be pulling the strings though and everyone needs to know that.

What's his new job title then ?
That's going to allow him to have control over both the managing director and finance director as well as the chairman ?

He was given shares for £1 and I'm estimating in this time the club value has probably shrank from £5m to just over £3m. Whats the percentage of shares he owns? If he does sell them he should immediately give the cash to the club like the Trust were expected to do.

They should be embarrassed to be associated with the club at all when you look at the state it's currently in.

It really doesn't matter what his title is to be honest... that is just window dressing. If you think as a major shareholder he is going to sit back and have nothing to do with the running of the club then you are crackers. If he genuinely is going to take a back seat why would the VP resign now over differences with Nixon?

I suppose that could be the reason why Robin Brown has chosen now to resign. As a way of showing that although he's 'stepping down', Nixon will still be very much in charge
