CT - at the start of the article you say he is moving to take up the same role, but then towards the end says he says “I’m delighted to be joining Huddersfield Town as chief executive"

Makes you think/reads that he's going in as chief executive of the whole club, not the community scheme.

Very aggressive, single minded and ambitious man - I'm not surprised he's taken a role like this.

I haven't - it says he's taking up the same position (which is CEO) at Huddersfield Town Football Club.

Sometimes it is good to have a change. Hart is very driven and it will be difficult to find someone of a similar ilk.

yep, sometimes fresh ideas can be worth their weight in gold, whoever comes in walks into a much healthier position though !

It had been run into the ground by the two previous people running it so he virtually had a clean sheet of paper. First thing he did was set it up as a charity and then it’s moved forward significantly since then.

It’s maybe got involved in some things that it shouldn’t but it’s achieved some wonderful things such as the disability sport project, Whitehaugh, Leisure Box and the Community Kitchen. Absolutely no doubt he’s leaving a legacy.

I did some work with him through the the Community, and when he came in you could tell he knew what he was doing.

What’s he’s done in the role has been magnificent, and he leaves behind him a fantastic legacy.

Without a doubt he knew what he was doing. He’s done a similar job at Watford.

Ahh I thought he was the chief executive of Burnley in the Community, and was going to be Huddersfield Town Football Clubs chief executive.

Which would be 2 different positions obviously.
My apologies.

The position is chief executive officer - that's what he currently holds at Burnley FC in the Community and what he will hold at Huddersfield Town. The position is exactly the same, just with two different companies.

As you say, you’ve read it completely wrong. I’ve tried to explain but you don’t even seem to have understood that. Thankfully everyone else seems to.

I understand what he did here, and what he has gone to do at Huddersfield, but didnt understand the "same position" comment it threw me.

Reneged? Not going? What's happening? Taking Baldwin's role instead? Interesting.

For the pedants, Fishermen and to answer chuckies question I get the impression he is going to have the same role he held with Burnley in the Community ie CEO.
