But if it is just a case of the boardroom saying "we agreed a generous budget so stick to it" it isn't really a change of direction.
IF that was the case, do you think Wray was acting on his own in spending money? I just can't see that. Thre would have been a plan and a budget, and a system for spending approvals. Hence I think a change in direction and ambition would be the result of his removal. I suppose if it comes out he was Risdaling (tm) then there was little choice in change.... Last word from me until the statement, honest.

Can't see there being a 'change of direction'. You don't plough in 14m into a project and change your mind halfway through.

I think we are all doomed, doomed i tell thee.
I don't really and think that when one looks back to the days when I used to refresh on here every 5 mins to see if we had been taken over or gone bust this is a storm in a teacup... for now.
Strange appointment though, a little left field. I hope hes bringing the Ferraro Roche with him!

ah fuck...............
Why does this not sound/feel good. Don't want to be pessimistic but for the first time in years, possibly ever, we had someone at the helm who I thought could steer the good ship STFC through the roller coaster reign of PDC and beyond. As already stated Wray > PDC.

Has anyone heard that Bolton have made an approach for PDC and we've given them permission to talk to him? Just been sent a text from someone claiming inside knowledge.

What time will the club release a statement today? Lots of questions at the moment.
Why is Wray leaving? What connection if any does Sir Patey have to the current board? Does this signal a change in ownership? Whats the implication on PDC? (who in my view needs to be reined in!) What impact does this have on CG redevelopment? (Number 1 priority for this clubs future)

I suppose we'll have to wait until Fridays for further statements. Getting in Patey is just like buying a house.

I've heard this too. The whole situation to me is very similar to the Duffen bloke at Hull, overspent for success and ousted by the board soon after

I'd kind of hoped that PDC if he went anywhere would go to Blackburn, the combination of him, the board and their fans would have fantastic comic potential!
