NG32 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Allan Rankin, the former chairman of Ultimate Leisure, has quit as chairman of Utopian Leisure for “personal reasons”. Utopian Leisure was set up in October 2005 by the former Ultimate chief executive Bob Senior. Rankin joined as chairman in 2007. Senior now takes on the role of chairman as well as chief executive. Tim Wynn, the former Ultimate development director who was property director at Utopian, has also left his full-time position, but is providing one-day-a-week consultancy services at Utopian. Senior denied there had been a falling out with Rankin. “It’s an entirely private matter, which I won’t go into out of courtesy to my pal.” Utopian operates a mixture of nightclub and restaurant sites in the north-east and in Belfast. 06/08/09 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Curbishley is still waiting for money from West Ham. He has no need to take another job in the mean time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chanoey Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 "As far as Mike is concerned, he either sells it or he doesn’t." That's major journalism right there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 But isn't Wise and 'The System' long gone now? Exactly. Curbishley will have the full control of the club - more than he probably thinks, the amount of people that are never there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 But isn't Wise and 'The System' long gone now? We have no system at all. Just Hughton, he has to make the tea, cook the food, manage the team, change Barton's nappy, release press statements, develop the website, run payroll, do the accounts and clean up.

Fatwax Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 But isn't Wise and 'The System' long gone now? Yeah but there's nothing else. I'm confident that there certainly won't be a budget for transfers available and the coaching staff is at a bare minimum as it is. We have 3 coaches, one being Paul Barron the GK coach as I'm aware. One of these coaches is also the interim manager. The whole thing is a farce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
