Thought the family didn't want owt to do with the club!

James Cryne will probably have grown as a person or in character since the debacle on the train. His fathers illness may have spurred him on to carry on the tradition. Who knows? I'll say this, if he has joined the board that can only be a good thing. It will keep an element of continuity.

Also so what if he was having an input with the spread sheet. It's not done us badly has it? Mathematical modelling was used by one of the consortium member's to good effect too. So much so they made a film about it.

I hate this subject to be honest, but its totally relevant to us right now and its something that we all must accept.
Mr. Cryne won't be here long term sadly and then something with the club has got to happen, especially as his family don't seem to want to take it over from him.



Not wanting to take over granted but keeping an interest

It will be a bit like when Dunhill's confectionery was taken over by Haribo. It originally kept it's Dunhill's Haribo suffix as the Dunhill family were made non executive directors and member's of the family management positions. Eventually, it just became Haribo and the family member's were paid off and or made redundant.

Same ownership model as AGC Nice with previous owners having 20%.

20% of any profit, 20% of debts when Mister Lee gets tired of this venture.

Patrick Cryne must be pretty confident in them then

Who's this Mr Openshaw-Blower who has "significant control" of club ?

What job does Blower perform ?

When I worked at Linpac. There was a manager called Richard Blower
