Pete we have appointed Craig Poskitt as Commercial Director as he is an expert in this area. I know he will make a massive difference to the income streams of our great club. This is vital to take the club forward.
Ian Croad
Watch fax TV in the morning as we have also made some more information available! We always try to communicate however sometimes we have to concentrate on running the business and dealing with issues. Always available and will be as open and transparent as I can. Craig will be a valuable addition to the team
Ian Croad:
Pete nobody has mentioned probiz as Craig is the former CEO of Featherstone and Commercial Director of Cas! He has brought over £1m in sales to the game. He has nothing to do with Feisal'"
Take out of that what you wish.

| I am that Pete, I had a open discussion with Ian crowd on Facebook, he was very honest and straightforward, answered any questions I had, rent is completely up to date, recruitment started early this year, no coach as yet as we have time to get the right man, feisel isn't involved, tony Abbott is still involved and check out fax T.V later today when some stuff will be explained.
There will probably be more Fev fans watching it that fax fans but tough turkey, let's back the fax, I was critical of all the lack of communication, last night was refreshing and I'm backing the board I was critical off, egg on my face, humble pie for breakfast, so be it!!. Come on you Fax.
Fev fans need not reply.

I needn't but I'm going to anyway.
of course it's of interest to fev fans. You are one of our main rivals. The results against fax affects my emotions greater than any other team in our league and now you have employed our ex CEO! its bound to spike some interest especially as that former employee is loathed by almost all at fev and most at cas.
you got some "straight answers" from tony Abbott. Just like we get from Campbell. I'm still waiting for that slippery (insert profane adjective of choice) to give his first straight answer!

| If the board let this Poskitt chap anywhere near the club then they have well and truly lost the plot. Whats the odds on that his first sponsorship deal will be with a company called Probiz...

| Me personally No, he would leave with my foot firmly wedged up his !!. However, I am a fan, the directors are in change and I trust them now to do what they have to, I don't think probiz will be back at all, I beleive this will be a condition and poskitt has been targeted for half a million. We will see what happens. I am happy to part with my cash and trust the club have done the right thing.

| Poskitt's on commission. If he fails the club he fails himself. Club has nothing to lose other than prospective sponsors if he cocks up the communications. I'd say it's worth the risk.
Rhino Roy - I've looked at your posting history and if you permit me I'll come down to your level: you're a massive bellend. I haven't seen one forum user (across several club forums that you spew your bile on) express a positive response to any of your posts. I guess you can add this one to your medal haul. Well done, really.

| What did everyone expect our b.o.d. to do ? Just continue to lose monies without reacting to the problems ? At least they've done something. The info i have is that this bloke is on low commission based on high income streams from new & not existing clients. Give him a go, keep his hands firmly where they should be & if he fails to deliver, get shot. A bit like coaching or playing really, cogs, wheels etc etc. If mr Poskitt would like my phone No for any sort of advice, or just a chat he can get it from a couple of the b.o.d. at Fax who have it, Sarah in the office or PM me on here as i understand he picks up on comments from online forums. Oh, and just so that anyone knows, i work for free, no commission, no expenses, no winning or losing pay/bonuses involved. If there's any funny business, i'm gonna organise HalifaxJohn & RotherhamFevfan to sit on him at HT at a match next season as part of the entertainment package. We could take bets & put it into the club funds to see how long he lasts beneath those two rotund chaps, if he's still at Fax next season of course.
Happy days are here again......

| Not the main topic of the thread but can I ask the Featherstone fans what do they think FN's ultimate aim was?
Was he after land?
Was he just full of sh it albeit well intended?

| NEGATIVES
There are a few people like this Poskitt chap where I live, over here in Dubai. Ben Elton used to call it 'style over content'. And you can look close to home at Gulf Financial House and their 'ghost banking' style ownership of Leeds United. A different situation yes, but the fact is that there are many flash harry's who can put on a suit and talk up something.
Bringing in money streams is all well and good as long as it is not deviously attached to debt, commitment, interest or third party issues that surface later, meanwhile the commission is paid and this guy leaves fax needing a big brush to sweep up.
As for Faisal I would not trust him as far as I can throw him. As I have a bad back right now it isnt far at all.
POSITIVES
Someone upstream said give him a chance. Fair enough, I respect that and why not ? If he brings in real income streams then by golly that is what we need.
My personal view is I dont trust him and ultimately I think it is a bad move. I wanted to see 'fresh across the board' but we have a 'used' addition in a CRITICAL position to the club.
I will say though that Fax TV should get the 3 directors once a month, it is excellent to finally get them talking - and the BOD need to realise this is only a good thing and commit to Fax TV.
Cheers

| I could be missing something and often do but even allowing for some less than honourable intentions and motives I fail to see what Mr Poskitt could possibly gain from coming on board at Fax as commercial director.
He has been given a clear target of bringing in £500,000 of income streams, as Little Rich has said would he deliberately want that to fail and thus fail himself, it doesn't make sense.
If that is some sort of smoke screen what do Fax have that he or anyone else could take advantage of?
It seems as the BOD alluded to they can't win, say nothing and their wrong, do nothing and their wrong, say something and it's wrong, do something and it's wrong.
Listening to what they said they are not stupid and there is no way they would be doing this if there were any dangerous jeopardy involved.
They have and still are giving it a lot of thought, the recruitment was well under way before the departure of KH with some exciting additions to come in and still has some slack and option for the new incoming man.
That man as they said will be appointed at the right time when the right man comes available and apparently there is a lot of interest.
None of us have a crystal ball and nothing is a given until after the event but from where we seemed to be heading over the last couple of weeks it looks like a 360 degree turn around from the outlook we had back then.

Have we brought over Fev's PR man as well?
That statement could have been worded so much better when it comes to calling out supporters at the end.
If i can get to a game and have the money I will be there but i can totally understand the reasons why some people have not been going and do not think any less of them as supporters. The club needs to encourage those people to come back not push them further away.
