Hello. Not sure I agree with J Vader's rather terse dismissal of Peter Bult.

I hardly know Peter, but as a valedictory I would be quick to acknowledge his long service as a leading club administrator, who could point to a fair few successes and trophies over his time.

And as a fellow administrator of many years now, I have come to appreciate the work and effort that must go in to make stuff happen at club level.

But like Peter, I am getting pretty long in the tooth. (Okay, not as old as you, Graeme Sole, but you get the picture.)

My question is this: Who will comprise the next generation of leading club administrators? Many of us have views on who the next stars on the pitch will be, but who will be the emerging young administrators to keep leading clubs afloat? 

Who are the rising admin stars around the country? Who is standing out from the (lack of the) croud? Who are the administrative young guns of the future?

Because I often wish I could go to the administrator tree and pick a few ripe ones for my committee. Only I can't.
