An interesting snippet. But really snide the way the Daily Mail Charles Sale characterizes Ali Russell. Say what you like about Briatore. He's big enough to be able to handle it. But it's really not classy to be like that.
Charles Sale/Daily Mail -
HAPLESS QPR deputy managing director Ali Russell pulled out of his scheduled appearance as a Soccerex convention panellist in Johannesburg on Tuesday because of the turmoil at Loftus Road following the sacking of secretary Sheila Marson.
Russell, who was replaced by the far more qualified Spurs commercial chief Paul Barber, had been due to speak on how to attract, manage and deliver the perfect sponsorship partnership - negotiations which, at QPR, bypass him but involve owner Flavio Briatore.
