• More than 3,000 NFC shareholders gathered in Blackpool last weekend to hear chairman Sir Peter Thompson name his successor, current deputy James Watson.
Watson has been Sir Peter's right-hand man since 1972 when both joined BRS. They moved to NFC together in 1976.
NFC faithful also heard the results for the 12 weeks to 23 December 1989 which showed a 6% rise in operating profit to £25.9 million, on a turnover of £373.4m, up 13%.
