Still holds 100 shares in the club according to the spreadsheet posted on the board this morning.mrhungryone wrote:What happened to him is he still involved with burnley? Wasnt he some high flying american business man.
Re: ray ingelby
He is British but his business was based in the US. He was vice chairman under BK but had to resign when he became bankrupt. I think he worked very hard for the club in the early 90's

Re: ray ingelby
back in the late 90's the local press ran an article virtually suggesting he could be our saviour, our very own jack walker figure, with access to gazillions of pounds/dollars. Never quite worked out like that, but I'm sure he meant well.

Re: ray ingelby
Thanks! So he will have made a few quid through the shares....and in time cudda struck more gold on our rise to the top,putting money in when we were .... i didnt know all that fair play to him. Didnt the other chap go bankrupt during coyles reign.. his name escapes me.
Re: ray ingelby
Brendan Flood suffered with the crash and bowed out briefly as a director because of his financial state not quite bankrupt, but he has recovered somewhat and is now back as director. Not sure of any one else who had to step down from directorshp other than Ray

Wasn't David Crossland of Airtours Group fame alleged to have been getting involved at one point around the same time?

Re: ray ingelby
If I remember Michael Knighton was about to buy Manchester United for £10m, but it fell through at the last minute because he couldn't get the finance in place. Missed out on the greatest sporting bargain of all time - hard to believe now.
No wonder the fella went a bit nuts....

Re: ray ingelby
Knighton going on the pitch and playing keepy-uppy was an even bigger spoof than rejected actually getting a job as a football manager.
Re: ray ingelby
In many ways, Ray Ingleby seemed to be the catalyst to the progress that we've made. At that point we seemed to bobbing back and forth in the third tier with no real expectations and the club not really progressing.
Ingleby's interest seemed to trigger off talk of takeovers and the idea that we could be an option for outside interest for someone with no connection to Burnley and was (relatively) quickly followed by the takeover from Barry Kilby and our progress to where we are now.

Re: ray ingelby
I think the Ingelby factor is more of a red herring. It was Kilby who provided the spur to improve us.aggi wrote:In many ways, Ray Ingleby seemed to be the catalyst to the progress that we've made.

Re: ray ingelby
Ingleby was a serious buyer but was outgunned by Barry Kilby. Joined forces though and Mr K made a big thing about Mr I working miracles, behind the scenes, when the finances were pear shaped.

Re: ray ingelby
I'm very grateful for Ingelby because I think the pressure he wrought made Teasdale sell up.IanMcL wrote:Ingleby was a serious buyer
However, I could not ever imagine us making the strides forward we did under Kilby under a potential Ingelby chairmanship.
I'm sure they were both very, very wealthy men back then in the 90s but I think that only one has proved to be an excellent steward of a successful football club.

Re: ray ingelby
Ingleby more interested in making money out of the club whist Barry had and has a 100% desire for the club to be successful on and off the field. Also if it had not been for that dreadful ITV digital/Granada financial crash Barry would have been even more successful then he was.
As an aside from memory Barry was worth something like 20 million when he sold his controlling interest in Europrint, all in my humble opinion of course.

I think you're thinking of Ron Noades who was a serial chairman/director of football clubs. He made himself manager at Brentford and actually won a promotion before firing himself.Goobs wrote:Wasn't it Knighton who also made himself manager for a while?

No he's right...
