TNS chief quits role
Friday 15th January 2010, 11:06AM GMT.
Mike Harris, managing director of The New Saints, has resigned as the Welsh Premier League representative on the FAW Council.
“I feel that I have gone as far as I can in representing the interests of the league and its clubs,” said Harris.
“I have been unable to obtain satisfactory answers to some issues that I have raised and feel that there could now be a conflict of interest between the Welsh Premier and my own club, The New Saints, which will now be best served by my working outside the shackles of being an FAW councillor.
“I also want to concentrate my efforts and expertise on further developing The New Saints at a crucial time for the league.”
Last month, the FAW did a u-turn on moves to remove the Welsh Premier’s seat from its ruling Council.
A fresh election will now be needed to find a successor to take over from Harris.
