Board Candid On Cameron

06 June 2011 19:24
Cowdenbeath FC chairman Donald Findlay and six of his fellow-directors have taken over the day-to-day running of the Fife club and, in their first act in charge, have appointed Colin Cameron as manager. Ex-Scotland international Cameron (38), who will be assisted by Lee Makel, takes over from Jimmy Nicholl, who has left Central Park and is expected to be named this week as assistant manager to Kenny Shiels at Kilmarnock. Lee Makel follows in the footsteps of Scotland boss Craig Levein and his former Blue Brazil assistant Gary Kirk as a Hearts old boy who has gone on to help guide the fortunes of the now 2nd Division side.  The Brewster family  remain majority shareholders of the Fife club and still own Central Park. But, in an amicable handover of power, they have all resigned from the board, and have signed a two-year security of tenure agreement, ensuring the team will remain at its present home until at least the summer of 2013.  The Brewsters and the new board hope to proceed with their plan to sell Central Park and build a new stadium in the town. The Brewsters would take the majority of the income from the sale, but have agreed that the club will have enough funds to build a new home.
