Wasn't it announced last season by alan Rowley that beaumont was back in some capacity?.

To be fair as Mo says Derek's always sponsored players including 2 last year, RHP and Duffs I think

Derek still does sponsership and comes to the games.

He has (or did last season) a sponsors box at games.

So not directly involved in the club then?.

Just don't get him doing any ground improvements ha

Also a shirt sponsor this season. (no.

JIC - It was Allan Rowley who brought in Emirates as a sponsor.

the way he was treated that day at halifax no one could blame him if he turned his back for good.

Directors shouldn't stand on the terraces suppin beer with supporters so he got no sympathy from me

Nor me in fact i would give him nowt

Let's be honest if Derek or anybody else in the old regime wished to be involved at the club, with the possible exception of a certain ex-director who was nearly lynched at the fans forum, i'm sure Keith & Trevor would welcome their contributions. Derek continues to support the club in a number of ways, however this thread seems to be missing the point that maybe he doesn't want/have the time to commit himself to a role which could very quickly become time consuming & impact on his business.



As an aside the club surely needs to source some new blood to take on the kind of role previously carried out by the likes of Derek instead of keep looking back at the usual suspects. The concept of the PSG introduced by Trevor is a good one provided there are enough people involved in it who have the capability to take the club forward as opposed to just having the time or nothing better to do with their time. This isn't a dig at anybody involved currently as part of the PSG as their involvement is i'm sure for all the right reasons.
