Obviously they go hard for anyone who speaks out in the public, so he couldn't say anything to the media if he wanted to continue down this route. I agree, I think that is what he is doing, but clearly that strategy isn’t going well is it, and we need him on our side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first part I know to be true, the second part is assumed as the club don’t tolerate anyone who speaks out against the way they deal with staff.

Dave_Og Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Probably only worth jumping around celebrating if someone better come in. How likely is that.... (no ? to emphasise the rhetorical nature of the question) At a time when Dylan Fage is our longest serving player, by a distance, who is our longest serving member of staff of any seniority?

oafc1955 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Unfortunately, the hiring of a new CEO would suggest it is their intention to stick around a while longer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc1955 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Karl Evans has been brought in by owner Abdallah Lemsagam to replace former managing director Natalie Atkinson and is tasked with upping revenues and improving fan engagement at Boundary Park. “What I’ve got to do is guide people through this difficult period because the fans and the community are the lifeblood.” “We’ve got to understand what they want and get them back on side.” That’s my job.

nzlatic Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 How many CEOs will this be under AL now? Moisley, Atkinson, Evans, new person. Was there someone else I'm missing between Moisley and Atkinson? 4 or 5 CEOs in 4 and a half years?! Unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands, feet tied whatever it doesn't excuse replying to fans asking a reasonable question as to when ST's will be available with "calm down (there was nothing to calm) there's 2 weeks to go but I guess that's another stick for the fans to bash the club with" and that's before his drunken social media exploits Another with the customer and public relation skills of Vlad the Impaler - good riddance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Maybe so DaveO, but he said himself that he was brought in to improve fan engagement and has failed spectacularly!! As CEO he should have had full autonomy. If he hasn’t had that then he should have walked away months ago…. He’s been running the show whilst Abdallah has been away and the last few months has been a complete cluster fuck. I have no sympathy for him whatsoever!!

PeteG Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Any doubts about this man, speak to sponsors who walked away and the staff who have left in their droves.

As CEO he was running the place whilst AL was in Dubai Even if the instruction came down from AL, one of his major roles was to enhance supporter engagement, so why not stand up for the supporters The ticket office was messed up for weeks with some IT issue and then moved to restricted opening hours. all under his watch Bottom line is, he simply wasn't very good in the role Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
