Sooty

Not much credit in my book.

Just looked liked he chucked his toys out of the pram and quit.

Of course, the two owners (not directors as it says on your forum) leaving might give credence to financial difficulties, but it was said at the time it was as much personal.

We budgetted without the owners so it looked it was was planned for a while.

He was introduced as friend of the current Chairman (previsouly MD) via some relative though, not the departing owners. So maybe hwea wanted to be Chairman here too?

He claimed at a meeting with Vale supporters that he was offered the chairmanship but when he did his due diligence some things didn't add up so he left. Does that sound likely or not would you say??

By the way, the equivalent is of Newton chosing Martin gray is him resignign from the board in support of Dean Glover

Is it to his credit that he resigned? Our directors who wanted Glover when Sinnott was appointed just stayed on and stirred it up behind the scenes then got Glover appointed anyway - and he was complete rubbish!

Vale fan here. Can you guys give us any information about Mike Newton. In particularly, we would be interested to know anything about why he left Oldham at the end of last season. Thanks.
