Peter Swann had amazing plans to build a new stadium.
I think a difference is that Kelvin has a good reputation for building success in catering at Hull KR, seemingly, while Swann only ever had half-arsed entertainment venues of dubious success at the time of his arrival.
I’m sure they it was probably a shitshow behind the scenes, in business or financial terms, whatever… but the Sands club in Gainsborough was actually good while it lasted – not half-arsed, at least not on the occasions I visited for dinner / dance / cabaret style evenings in a post-Sinatra / wannabe Goodfellas style.
My theory is the relative success of that venue led Swann to overestimate himself and his judgement, and continually bite off more than he actually had the chops to chew.
