I see we have taken on board the services of Greg McEwan as our new Commercial Director.

This can only be a good move, to have a man of his experience working full time on the club's commercial interests.

I would guess, both Greg and John Potter's positions are salaried posts? However if they are the right guys for the job, they will be increasing the club's profits way over and above their salary levels.

Welcome both to Raith Rovers.

This could be a bigger catch than nearly anything on the pitch, reading his CV.

I agree Tex - we are lucky to land someone like him. He will bring money in, even if / when the turnstiles get a bit rusty - as they have recently!

This new consortium are true to their word. They really are getting things moving quickly! Anyone remember the confusion and stagnancy last year at this time?

Welcome to the Rovers Greg! Smile

Had reason to email the new Commercial Director, and got a series of quick responses to some questions. They also wasted no time fixing a website issue I mentioned where it conflicted with the new Commercial Brochure. Excellent work for/by the Club!

And now he is away!!!!!

There must be more to it than 'due to other business interests'.

Noticed a photo in the advert for commercial opportunity just mailed to me. It has a pyrotechnic clearly in the image. Surely a poor choice?

I know his brother and spoke with him around a month ago. Greg was in a salaried position and employed 2 days or maybe it was 3 days a week. His early thoughts on the club was that there was a massive job ahead and the structure of the club made things very complicated, mainly due to the different holding companies.

Incidently he left hibs as he was not happy with the direction in which the club were going.

And now a new Digital Marketing Executive (whatever that means). Good luck Grace Fowlie

Perhaps an early task for her could be to address the fans displeasure over the match updates on Twitter (?X)
