Don't joke this is Cardiff City and the Malaysian deal has to have something wrong it......

He is discribed as "Independent Accounting Professional"

Could that mean he was a self-employed Accounting Professional?

There is another Douglas Lee listed on Linkedin as an Independant Sports Professional based in Malaysia. The trouble is you need a Premium Account to view his full profile.

I'm assuming this is the same Doug Lee.

I've heard on the grapevine that it is the Doug Lee formerly of PWC referred to above. I hear that he's seriously filthy rich, is on a whacking pension and hasn't been working since he left PWC 'cos he doesn't need to. If this is a man who's doing it for the love rather than the money, IMO that's a good sign. You must have run across sometime, Keith?

so what your saying then unlike Riddler and Harris he doesnt need to " reward " himself with " consultancy fees " etc ?

I'd hope we put him on the payroll at a reasonable salary. Employing people as consultants always costs an arm and and a leg.

It's comforting to see his involvement with PWC because they don't miss a trick on the financial side!

lets hope he examines the books of CCFC thoroughly and can find something naughty on Ridsdale ?

I think we could all do that without too much bother.......

Didn`t come across him during the years I was at Coopers and Lybrand (83 to 94) , which was the firm that merged with Price Waterhouse worldwide to become PWC.
