Christine Balford

Christine Balford resigns from the post in the commercial department, she will be leaving early next week, it becomes the second post inside the commercial department to have been departed, Roland Richardson also left 3 weeks ago.

any replacement or are we winding the cluib down?

on the plus side if she resigned then we save in wages and don't need to pay her off.

That means there must only be Michael the Food & Beverage Manager, Alison the Business Devlopment Manager and the girl out the shop, in the office.

Raj and Fordy getting to grips with what needed weeding out. I'm interested who the cancer is.

If she resigned... then she wasn't weeded out! Interestingly enough, Christine Balford used to be my boss at Newcastle Airport!

Let's knock this on the head. As I've said elsewhere Chistine has resigned for exactly the same personal reasons that you or I might leave a job. That is all that needs to be said.

If that happens to suit the other management and present an opportunity to steer the ship on a different course, then so be it.

Invest in the club and you have a right to know - stay away and you don't! You can't have it both ways.

christine leaves the club on thursday. nice lady to deal with but I bet she is wondering why she left her job at newcastle to join darlo. She has only been here 12 months but it must seem like 12 years to her.

Which ever game it was when we got our only point was Roland's last day in the job.
I believe he's gone to Sunderland.
