Nike appointed a PR Director having previously not had one as an $800m company after a lawsuit from the Beatles massively increased their turnover. Not the only reason obviously but the company was worth $8b ten years later having moved from elite sport to the 'Just Do It' (ie anyone can) strap line.
The club does so many great things that we can push.

The WST comms team set up by the then Trust Chairman (2009) was pretty effective when one considers what they were up against.
