Having attended the meet and greet this morning it was interesting to hear that he backed away from the Sunderland deal and that he had declined the opportunity to get involved in rescuing Bolton.
The attraction of Falkirk being that we are an under performing club with strong potential for growth on and off the park (hotel, hospitality etc) and are debt free.
John Park spoke as well as you would expect about turning around the fortunes on the pitch though I thought the line about getting back to having wingers like Crunchie in the team a bit too patronising.
He has yet to speak to the manager but it seemed pretty clear JP will have the final say on footballing matters.
Still can't quite get my head around why this guy is going to leave his life in Manhatten to move to Edinburgh so he can be a hands on Chairman of a relatively small football club.
Not yet convinced about this.
