Did a little bird tell you that?

Difficult to believe he'd be reporting into Carson:

I think the new CEO's someone called "Tris Curner"

Turpin?

[Les Ashmore]

He is also Ched Evans Agent/Media manager

He worked closely with the club prior to the signing of Ched Evans.

[Mr Mercury]

Jokes how he's made loads of money for other people and now it's time to make some for himself?
If it's him could be why he's interested in CFC..

This would suggest not if the "wealth of experience" line is to be believed....

And the club is to appoint a new CEO. Likely next week #Spireites

Graham Smyth‏ @GrahamSmyth 8m8 minutes ago
A man with a 'wealth of experience' - get the feeling the club are pretty pleased about this one. Bit of a fresh start perhaps.

Kev Davies would be the icing on the cake.

So another mate of Carson's?

[Humpalumpa]

Just hope all the relevant background checks, due diligence has been done prior to any appointment.

Whoever it is they must have the relevant experience and relevant qualifications in running such a company, not just a mate of a mate.

Has the CEO post been advertised anywhere and if so how many applied and how many have been interviewed?

Said in jest Dave?


Qualifications and the relevant experience that is required in such an important position, doubt it.

Been there with Turner and look where that's got us!!

If it is Chris Bird DA has finally come to his senses.

He has a business and football background as well as a PR man. Some of his quotes about his time at Man City could read like us...

“For the first 18 months, I didn't take a day off because the whole place was a shambles.”

“I became more involved in the day-to-day running of the club. I started noticing things around the club and thinking: 'There are better ways of doing this'.

Would be a very interesting appointment indeed

His profile reads like a CFC job description Experienced Chief Executive Officer with a demonstrated history of working in the public relations and communications industry. Skilled in Crisis Management, Event Planning, Sports Management, Hospitality Industry, and Event Management. Strong entrepreneurship professional

To put a spoke in the wheel just heard another name, Ex Birmingham City CEO Michael Dunford, which would also be a good move.
His profile fits the statement by AC ie https://en.wikipedia...Michael_Dunford

Too little too late I`m afraid.




The previous fool of a CEO, the head of recruitment and the "real" CEO in the shadows have done so much damage over the last 2 1/2 years its going to take years to recover.




If we drop into the national league, which we could easily do, the club may not recover full stop.

We need someone that is going to weild the axe wherever needed, wherever there is incompetency or waste not someone that just keeps paying everyone off.

We also need someone that investigates where our money has gone and actively through the courts tries to get it back from those responsible.

We need someone that involves the relevant authorities should they find anything illegal/fraudulent

We need a fkin hero to sort out this sorry fking mess

Whereas in reality it will be someone recommended by those within their network.

The more I discover about this guy the more I like him for the job, http://www.crawleyob...w-ceo-1-5339883
and he is not working ATM that I can see.

Mike Warner is ex Derby County. I have no idea whether their paths crossed, but if it is him, let's hope that he's Mike's recommendation.

Any road up, we've now got Allen replacing Carson with a new man (or woman). We'll have to put up with a certain amount of bull from Carson claiming this is his initiative, but it will be worth it.

Meanwhile, whilst Jack may be able to justify his 'I'm not answering that question, it's history' stance, the new CEO will not.
