Carol Shanahan confirms a raft of changes at Port Vale FC

Carol Shanahan has explained a raft of changes to Port Vale’s structure in a wide ranging video interview published by the club.

In a near half-hour video Shanahan explains some of the changes will be:

• A restructuring of the club including new departments responsible for “their own profit and loss”
• There will be nine major departments including football related (headed by David Flitcroft), people (Matt Hancock) and stadium/operations (Claire Halkett)
• Her son, Patrick will then work with all the departments on strategy

Shanahan also discusses:

• Work on new values and missions across the club
• Planning for the future after a “tough” first season in League One
• Plans for a new scoreboard to replace the one in the Hamil Road stand which is “on its last legs”
