Main Stand redevelopment thread

You can see the stake is shares each person has.

A man who only has 10% is not going to be in charge are they when the rest of them have 25% or say 40%.

He has his current position because the others allow it.
He has his current position because the current investors agreed to these terms when the came on board. None of them can be bothered with the day to day running of the club. Parish having the power he has is the price they pay for him doing all the heavy lifting as it were
 
I think you are both right. Harris Blitzer and Johnson do not have day to day control of the club. They are happy to cede that to Parish in return Parish gets a wage and a bigger say in voting rights.

Parish has a huge say in the club simply because the others trust him. However if they wanted to it would probably only take 2 of them to push him out of his role as chairman.

It says a lot about him that when Textor tried to throw his weight around regarding transfers he got nowhere. I think it i safe to assume that the others backed Parish over him.
Correct, Steve is the managing owner. It is very common for US owners to provide financial backing for their teams and then let someone else do the day-to-day running of the club while they focus on their other business endeavors. For example, Woody decided last week to buy into Aston Martin's Formula 1. Stroll will keep control of Aston Martin team like Parrish does for Palace.
