He does not want a place on the board, otherwise he would have offered to run the thing. But he didn't offer to run the thing. Despite what he told you and the government.

Your beloved save dreamland chairman and his crew did not want to run the park. That is why you have a banker running the park now!

Yes from what I have read, it is less the company and more the people on the company.
All I know is, there must have been quite a strict process to determine the operator and if the Trust/council deemed them the most appropriate to run the park, I trust their judgement.
I personally think it will be nice to have someone new to the game. Will be interesting to see how they approach it (if they are given the go ahead).

The Way I've read all the legal stuff, The Trust are not allowed to run the park, it had to be tendered to a operator
