Despite it being the international break, the Celtic Fans Collective continues their campaign against the Parkhead board.

Celtic fans want boardroom change and there is an active campaign going on right now up to, and beyond, the 2025 AGM.

The Celtic Fans Collective called out Brian Wilson this week as the pressure ramps up on the Parkhead executive ahead of next Friday’s AGM.

And now, it’s the turn of another Celtic boardroom member who has also been told his 24-year stay at the club is over.

Celtic director Tom Allison is told his time at the club ‘has expired’

Tom Allison was appointed to the Celtic board in 2001 and now, the Celtic Fans Collective has told him he must step aside.

The statement on X read, “Tom Allison joined the Celtic board in September 2001. Tom Boyd was club captain and the team was preparing for Celtic’s first ever Champions League group stage match.

“Like Brian Wilson, Tom’s tenure is now more than double the nine-year maximum widely recommended for Non-Executive Directors under basic corporate governance standards.

“As a result, his ability to hold the CEO and CFO to account has been compromised.

“Celtic needs fresh ideas, expertise and leaders who understand the demands of a modern football club.
Tom – your time at Celtic has expired.”

When is Celtic’s 2025 AGM?

The 2025 AGM is due to take place next Friday the 21st of November at 10:30am.

The meeting will be held at Celtic Park where shareholders and fans can quiz the Parkhead board.

There will be 14 ordinary resolutions to be voted on, including Tom Allison’s reappointment to the board, and three special resolutions.

Details can be found on Celtic’s official website.
