Re: Fraser Eagle
 

Since this thread is about Fraser Eagle I feel the need to say that this refers to Alan Robinson and not Alan Dyson (owner of Fraser Eagle)

Re: Fraser Eagle

Re: Fraser Eagle
 

It is but a thin line between ownership and directorship
EN for Business - Fly like an eagle
extract-
Dyson is now sole owner of the original group businesses, although management have stakes in some recently-formed subsidiaries. Dyson very much takes a back (non-executive), seat in the running of the business nowadays, according to Dean: “It has to be quite a clinical relationship because otherwise it can get quite sentimental at times.”

Re: Fraser Eagle
 

alan was the owner when they were at tanpits
but is now a mere director and has been for some time
as the whole op was taken out of his hands and run by accountants

Re: Fraser Eagle
