Congratulations Perry Deakin

[Bycarsbill]

May'be but let's put this into perspective,on the commercial side from past experience,he didn't have a lot to live up to did he?

 

Why is it that most comment is so begrudging, even for relatively upbeat and positive reports--it seems to be consistent thread with some posters on OVF!

When PD shows a bit more respect to the fans and changes his attitude for the good he might gain some positive reports from me.

Whoever the new board are should remove Deakin and put someone in place who brings more revenue in than goes out in his wages alone.

Depends on his remit, Tony. 12 Exec boxes were empty yesterday.

 

One is my uncles and he is on holiday

With regards to Deakin , I am curious as to why and how he seems to have emerged as a rather loud mouthpiece in a very short (no pun intended!) space of time.

 

I know we've had a decade of Bill staying silent but it's really not that unusual for a CEO to be vocal in the running of a company. That's what he's paid to do.

The important thing is to understand the customers, and how to encourage them to spend more. Different to putting your stamp on your employees.

Fair point but we just can't seem to get one that can open their mouth without putting a rather large boot in it !

[paulsuwb]

Oh agreed he's dropped some proper clangers, but at least he's twigged when it's happened and apologised.

 

Much better than the previous occupant but could do better is I think a fair assessment.

Depends what you think is brilliant really?

 

Selling off the clubs catering for a one off fee so for years to come we won't make any money off the catering anymore.

 

Selling advertising boards for only £350 with 2 free season tickets included.

 

Trying to sell off the name of the entire ground for £25,000.

 

Lying to the fans.

 

Is that brilliant??? It all seems very short term, maybe thats what he was told to do. Bring in some short term cash to keep us open as Bratt knew he would be stepping down soon anyway so it would be someone elses problem next season.

 

were do you get b£350 with two free tickets my mate paid £1450 for his advertisihg board and i have seen the bill ,the catering we will get a %of the takeings and the ground was not sold for £25k it was just the stand bycars end

I know of one paddock board [ away end side ] sold for £ 750 + 2 free tickets, I also know of others sold for £ 1500 with no free tickets
