Questions to Christian Purslow

Tuesday 6th July 2010

Standard Chartered will be hosting an event tomorrow (Wednesday) in the London Carriage Works Restaurant on Hope Street in the city centre. Christian Purslow will be in attendance. We urge anyone who can make it to be there at 12pm to show him he is not welcome at our club. This isn't about who is or isn't our sponsor. It is about our Managing Director and what he is doing at our club Seeing as Christian has chosen to ignore our questions, we will be going to him, to ask the following:

1. Christian, you told us your job was to find £100m investment. You did not succeed. Do you accept you have failed?
2. Christian, what exactly do you do now? Are you still part time? Are you still a temporary appointment?
3. Christian, with a background in finance, equity investment and leveraged buy outs, why do you consider you have the requisite skills and experience to decide upon the dismissal and appointment of football managers and to offer opinions about player acquisitions?
4. Christian, are you involved in any way in any consortium seeking to buy the Club? If so, isn't that a conflict of interest?
5. Christian, when we do finally get new owners, will you leave and or will you continue to stick around to feather your own nest?
6. Christian, the residents of L4 remain concerned about the regeneration of their area - why have your not had the courtesy of replying to them about the prospect of a Football Quarter? Too busy or don't care?

If you are able to attend, please let us know at directaction@spiritofshankly.com. We hope to see you there.
