I agree David McNally has done a fantastic job But......
I think we may be underestimating the job people like Alan Bowkett, Michael Foulger and even Stephan Phillips have done.
Those three above had vastly more mangerial experience than McNally.
Here are the details when they joined.

I think Bowkett is more than happy for McNally to be the "face" of NCFC.
Bowkett is rarely on TV and almost never does interviews.
Almost unheard of with a chairman at the top football clubs who crave face time on SSN.
McNally was the wildcard of the board as he is the only one who wasnt a NCFC fan when he joined.
But the combination of fans and business acumen has been a match made in heaven.
Have to also pay huge tribute to Delia and MWJ
Bowkett was a harsh critic of the way the club was being run yet Delia appointed him chairman after admitting they were clueless about running a football club.
The willingness to try something new and go in a new direction is what has taken us to this point.
