THE push to spill the Northern NSW Football board of directors and replace them on December 4 gathered more momentum last night when all state league clubs voted in favour of the action.
The standing committee of the state league clubs met to decide its position on the nine resolutions which will be addressed at the annual general meeting and at a general meeting called by members for later that night.

The presidents of the seven NNSWF zones have brought forward legal action to sack the four remaining members of the NNSWF board – chairman Peter Moore, deputy chairman Greg Wilson, Richard Face and Andrew Robertson – over their axing of chief executive officer David Eland.

The zones have two votes each on any motion.

The state league clubs’ standing committee, as well as that of the first division clubs and the referees’ association, have one each.

The referees committee voted unanimously at a meeting on Saturday in favour of spilling the board.

The first division clubs are expected to meet tomorrow night.

Bill Walker and Michael Gaertner, who refused to vote on a motion of no confidence in Eland last month and subsequently quit the board, will rejoin the board if the resolutions are passed.

Broadmeadow president Larry Urdarov, North Coast zone president Phil Holt and Northern Inland president Alex McDonald are the other proposed replacement directors.
