Christian Purslow - Resigned

[AV82EC]

Wyness had been a part of Samuelson's operations for years, at previous clubs. When it became clear that everything was going majorly tits up, he and Samuelson fell out, and Wyness started to take steps to protect his own position. There's no proof that he knew what Samuelson had been up to, but it would be be strange if he didn't...

Didn’t know that Risso so thanks for the clarification.

Out of interest, who is going to do the stuff that sits between commercial and sporting, representing us at PL meetings etc?

Can’t see that being Monchi or Heck. Doesn’t seem a natural fit for either.

Maybe that’s the role they offered Purslow and which he rejected.

I mentioned this the other day, it's pretty much a club secretary role that's left.

It's closer to Heck's remit though, I'd say.

Wonder if it'll be Nas himself?

If theres any area we'll miss Purslow it'll be this one.

He'll probably be running for the Tories in one of the upcoming by-elections. He strikes me as a Rishi-loyalist.

Is all this Tory-stuff simply Red Scouse, chip-on-the-shoulder nonsense? I recently read Purslow's father's obituary and it seems Mr Purslow Sr was a devout Catholic and paid up member of the Labour Party.  Now, that doesn't necessarily mean CP was the same, but still...

It seems any opportunity to mention the Tories is the obsession of some on here - quite pathetic really as there are enough political threads elsewhere.

Yes, I think you have got a point there.

However, I feel duty bound to point out that the tories are proper kernts.

Purslow donated £50k to the Tory party in 2019.

Quelle surprise!

Good riddance then.

Yawn.

Most of that is under Paul Tyrell's (as COO) remit already I think, as I mentioned at the time. Haven't see any announcement that he's left.

Would it be awkward if I pointed out that so has one of Nas's companies?

Steve Stride would be good on the board

I don't think anyone would be surprised to find out a couple of multibillionaires aren't regular readers of The Ragged-Trousered Philanthropist!

No, as businesses tend to seek favours with current government without committing to any political allegiance.

Not a problem until he does us wrong. Like Dean Smith. When he's our manager he's a good, solid Villa man.

When he's managing Leicester, he's a Tory prick.

Always find the good and bad where you need to.

Are you sure. Didn't he play snooker at Great Barr Conservative Club?
