Disgruntled Gowing Bros shareholder Ross Illingworth , the head of boutique fund manager Kingfisher Capital, is tipped to face staunch resistance from entrenched directors when he tilts for a board seat at the company’s annual general meeting in Sydney on Thursday.

It is expected Illingworth will criticise the board’s performance over recent years, while the board will recommend against his nomination as a new director.
