Salopian 1 Posted July 3, 2009 So it is announced - the new directors will not bring any finance with them. I can''t quite believe this - they will have to own a minimum number of shares, or are they merely buying the shares of the departing directors?The hope, I suppose, is that they will put the club on a surer commercial basis, chasing away waste and inefficiency, and perhaps securing some extra commercial income. (This was what the Turners would have done.)What emoluments will they receive? This information will come in due course, when the annual report is published. We had this at the beginning of the Smith reign, when a professional chairman was brought in at something like £80,000 for a part-time week. He made such an impact that I have forgotten his name!Whatever they are paid, I hope that they contribute more in the skills and experience they bring.
