as others have said Christian Purslow is a slick speaker but he seems genuine, likeable and most importantly knows what he's talking about

the difference between him and Wyness is like comparing mouse trap to camembert

I can't get Purslow's passing resemblance to Alan Partridge out of my head!

I keep expecting him to shout "Smell my cheese!"

Very true John.  With Liverpool and Chelsea already on his CV, this chap seems to be very good at his job.

We need to keep Purslow.

Is he our Chief Executive or have we got him on loan?

Made me laugh. Although lets face it chief execs, managers, players, everyone in football apart from fans are just on loan. Purslow does speak impressively though and it sounds sensible and understandable rather than smoke and mirrors gobbledygook. Unlike Randy who ended up talking about Summer Nights or some other song from Grease.

Purslow makes me feel quite confident we have someone in charge day to day that knows what he’s doing.
