I wouldn't exactly say Newcastle is a success story - what exactly have they achieved under their current MD? Next to nothing, in fact, under his watch they've lost a fair bit of business, it's just barely noticeable because of their size to begin with. It was the guy that was accused of corruption that made NCL a success story and that same guy is now at Leeds and seems to be delivering the goods there as that place is starting to boom.
P330, I understand what you're getting at and I agree with you, but we still seem to lack something compared to others.
