Dave Ryder

Post by **Ste Story** » Mon Sep 16, 2013 8:31 pm

Has resigned from the Board of Directors, but no reasons have been given at this time.

I'd just like to remind all users that while we're all for discussions etc, outright lies or bending the truth doesn't help anyone. I'm told and Martin Lewis has also posted from someone close to him that Dave Ryder tendered his resignation days ago and well before the Bayliss situation so it has nothing to do with that and the recently locked thread doesn't really help matters in that aspect.

Feel free to discuss this here, but please stick to truths/opinions over lies/rumours.

Cheers Ste

Had just been given the nod to clarify this , but you seem to have done it pretty well.

Another director gone, I was concerned when Dave Ingham left as he was 100 percent barrow as is Dave Ryder and his family also. I feel the Bayliss incident has just made the troubles come to the surface, many problems underneath the surface we have not seen or heard of.

I wish Dave all the best and hope he continues to support barrow.

Football breeds an inherent stupidity and we seem to have bore the brunt of it all as a club in the whole. Aside from the troubles I do hope with new bod members we can make sensible and correct decisions for the future of the club and its fans.

Now I'm even more worried. Dave is a good man, Barrow through and through and things must be bad for him to go. Thanks for all of your hard work Dave over the years.

He's more than that bud, he's a top bloke, nobody will really know the amount of time, effort and hard earned cash Dave put in to the club, but it was his passion and he loved it.

As a mate, glad he's called it a day, enjoy your retirement, you deserve it!

Yep, when people like Dave walk away from the club we know we are in trouble! I honestly believe on a personal level though that it is for the best for him and echo GenMans comments

Very true Martin I remember him opening up the bar a few years back and serving pints to us when a match was on tv, wasn't a match day but he brought his son up and did it all to make some coin for the club. He also drove to McDonalds for a load of happy meals once when a load of kids were in years back for a party and the food didn't turn up. He spoke to my mum who was manager at the store at the time and she got it ready for him, he drove down and picked it all up and made sure all the kids were fed. She did loads of balloons and stuff for him and sent a cake and he pretty much did a kids party on his own.

Dave Ryder is a top man.

Cheers for your effort and commitment down the years Dave, just a shame it has come to this.

You have to worry about his reasons for leaving. I suspect we wouldn't like them much.

When a good man like Dave walks away, something is seriously wrong.

I echo all of the above. A true gentleman and hard working with it.
Enjoy your retirement Dave, any chance of joining me on the bowling green over the road?

Many a good chat with Dave on match days, always seemed to be the most accessible member of the board regards stopping and having a chat with the supporters young and old.

Definite a big loss to the club

Enjoy your retirement

Real shame.

Suppose that new bike will get some extra miles clocked up on it now Dave - best of luck & enjoy your retirement.

Don't think you will see Dave pottering about at the ground Tom while a certain father and son are still there.
