What has he been brought in to do specificially out of interest?

Incorrect. The stand off cost us the stand off. Legally he still had a contract, hense the reason the legal case hasnt been put to bed yet.

So did Paul Blanchard's. A monumental error of judgement by Hudgell, no?

Blanchards CV was excellent and also sport related. Just goes to show that sometimes its not that black and white (pardon the pun).

Ah ok, another one in the know.

Comparisons between Blanchard (a "full time" employee) and our new board member are totally pointless. I very much doubt that Paul Leun will spend too much time focussing on Rovers when he is busy running a very sucessful business over in Rotherham.

Still, they are both called Paul, so surely that makes awesome signature material.

His cv was great. The error was he couldnt settle in the north.

Or organise the replica shirts operation. He did love the fans though. Tears all round when he left, eh?

blanchard was originally brought in with the prime task of generating funding for the proposed new north stand a job he successfully did at Surrey CCC. Unfortunatley not long after this an event happened you may have heard of, the credit crunch leading to a global recession which meant most capital projects in RL getting shelved. He was then left in the role of general manager really a job which didn't really suit his expertise.
