Fulham M.D. to leave

last updated Tuesday 30th October 2001, 5:20 PM
Michael Fiddy has decided to relinquish his position as Managing Director of Fulham Football Club in order to pursue new opportunities.

Before Mr. Fiddy joined the club in March 2000 he had established a reputation in the City as one of the most talented young lawyers in the specialised field of insolvency and company reconstruction.

He was appointed to Fulham with a double brief: to help win promotion to the Premiership and gain planning permission for building of a new stadium.

Now that both aims have been achieved Mr. Fiddy feels that it is time to take on new challenges and experiences.

Fulham's Chairman, Mr. Mohamed Al Fayed said: " I am very grateful to Michael for his commitment, energy and hard work. He played a big part in the club's success. I wish him well for his future career."

Commenting on his departure, Michael Fiddy said: "It has been a privilege to have been involved with Fulham during the incredible journey that it has enjoyed over the last 18 months. I am grateful to the Chairman for the opportunity to be associated with the club during this exciting period. I would like to thank the Chairman, the Board, the players, staff and fans for their commitment and support they have given me during my tenure. Being Managing Director of this great club has been an honour but I now wish to pursue other opportunities and directions that have arisen. Fulham is an extraordinary club and I am sure that it will fulfil the dreams of everyone associated with it."

Mr. Mark Collins of Harrods Estates will take temporary charge of business affairs of Fulham Football Club pending the appointment of a successor. Mark has been an active supporter of the club for over 30 years, and was part of the team advising Mr. Al Fayed when he first became Chairman.
