Lancashire chief executive Daniel Gidney will step down from his role at the end of the year to retire after 14 years in the role.<\/p>\n
Gidney, who joined the Red Rose in November 2012 with the club having recently lost its Test match status, has been in charge during a period which saw a \u00a375m redevelopment of Old Trafford as well as the building of their second ground at Farington.<\/p>\n
However his exit comes amid a revolt among several former players, including David Lloyd and Paul Allott, who have expressed concerns over how the club has been run.<\/p>\n
“Throughout my tenure, I have been acutely aware of my responsibility as a custodian of the club and have always aimed to leave it in a stronger position than the one I inherited,” he said.<\/p>\n
“Highlights include hosting major matches such as Ashes Tests and World Cup fixtures, the redevelopment of Emirates Old Trafford, seeing both our men’s and women’s teams win trophies, and the creation of Farington as our new high-performance facility.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lancashire chief executive Daniel Gidney will step down from his role at the end of the year to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":557426,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[1721,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-557425","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-cricket","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/557425","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=557425"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/557425\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/557426"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=557425"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=557425"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=557425"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
