Look at the analytics across social media, website, commercial spending etc. then report to board/teams around company. Eg, how many people clicked through from the post above via the link. Helps determine what/who to push, who's popular and who's not.

Would that be the 2nd or 3rd appointment as head of commercial since the takeover (just over 21 months ago)?

I think this Head of Commercial is a new role reporting into the Commercial Director

We need a new head of Catering. the lukewarm pies on sale without any peas are a disgrace
Bacon and sausages on a bun are not too much to ask
The little butty shop near the Park chippy does a roaring trade and this is money that the club could earn.

If you go into any butty shop around Burnley and ask for a bacon and sausage bun, you'll probably end up getting sectioned.

Do we say barm cake ? The only time I heard this growing up (in Colne) was on Coronation Street. We always said roll, bap or teacake.

Definitely teacake. Quite peculiar to Burnley and Pendle I think. I once asked for a ham and salad teacake in Manchester and they looked at me like I'd gone mad!

Absolutely a tea cake. And if it's got currants in it's a currant tea cake. Simple as that.
Baps, buns, cobs, rolls..... that's all ********.

Once asked for a bacon and brown sauce on a teacake in Ludlow . After a few strange looks , i ended up with a toasted currant teacake with bacon and brown sauce in it . I sat and ate it with the lass behind the counter staring at me .

Exactly this from an Accringtonian who lived down south for 20 odd years. The amount of time I've wasted over the years explaining this to people is unreal. What could be more simpler?
Anyway, back to the vacancies......

Tea cake over t’other side of the hill, too.
Never understood why Greggs call it a roll (I know it’s a bread roll)… if you want a sausage sandwich you’re asking for a sausage roll - which in Greggs is an unnecessary confusion!

I once heard a lad from somewhere in Cheshire ask for an egg hogie whilst we were at college in Manchester.
