https://www.ntfc.co.uk/news/2024/june/jim-rosenthal/Northampton Town have appointed Jim Rosenthal to the club's Board of Directors. The hugely respected Rosenthal has enjoyed a long and successful broadcasting career in both TV and radio, presenting many sports including football, rugby, F1, boxing and athletics for the BBC, ITV, Channel 5, MUTV and Amazon Prime as well as hosting events for UEFA, and has twice been named as the Royal Television Society's Sports Presenter of the Year. "Jim is a long standing friend and colleague and we are delighted to welcome him to the Board," said Chairman Kelvin Thomas. "He has been a regular at our games over the last few years and it makes sense to welcome Jim to the club in an official capacity. "He is one of the most respected men in sport and is very, very well connected across both the sports and media industries. "He has a wealth of knowledge and experience that we can lean on and input that we can benefit from.” Rosenthal added: "I am looking forward to help in the development of the club in any way I can. I have enjoyed watching the team and the club progress under the stewardship of Kelvin Thomas and David Bower, both of whom I have known for many years. "The addition of Nigel Le Quesne to the board is a real bonus as his business expertise will be invaluable. These are exciting times; attendances are at a generational high and the team performances are the best they have been for quite some time. "I have been hugely impressed with the work in the community, and the support and dedication of the fans. The development of the new East Stand is a positive and a concrete sign that this club is moving forward and I am delighted to play my part in helping with that."

He's quite regularly at games sitting with KT.
He's a well known face in the world of sport so it can't do any harm to have him associated with us.

Welcome Jim. Will help raise the profile of the Club.
Be prepared for the nay sayers and doom and gloom merchants to make it a negative though.

It seems an odd appointment for a self confessed Oxford united fan ? Why is he not on their board of directors? Valid question I think |

You are a highly educated man Shoey so it’s not beyond your capability to do a bit of detective work! |

I really do not know Evers All I’m saying is that as a lifelong cobblers fan there is only one club I would invest in if I was in a position too. I wouldn’t be investing in another club. What’s your opinion Evers? Would you invest in a club other than the cobblers? |

Just because he's been invited on to the board it doesn't mean he's invested money. |
