There are two main types of Chairman: an executive Chairman and a non-executive Chairman. Though they have some similar responsibilities, an executive Chairman is an employee of the company while a non-executive Chairman is not.

What are the day-to-day roles and relationship between King (Executive Chairman) and Boddy (Chief Executive)?

Edit: probably not a wise question to ask

Not necessarily but Boddy has never really been a ceo anyway as obviously real strategy decisions were Seppalla directly. I doubt fisher in the last few years did much at all really - depends of king really wants day to day involvement

He is obviously going to be very hands on which hopefully will improve things as some of the things they do are very low standard.

Obviously I will see and what happens and what he does, he obviously knows about business to have his £70m seed oil stuff.

However, how much of that will translate over to a football club?

(Saying that, there's not many chairman I can think of we have that have come in with football experience).

Short-lived, I'd imagine. Bouffant Dave will invite him in to his office in short order.

You're being a bit evasive on the price, which makes me think it'll be beyond my reach.

Art is extremely subjective, but if pushed I'd start the bidding at a grand.

In all seriousness, it is a six figure salary that could be saved, and put towards the wage budget.
