Above is a screen shot taken from the Evan Evans website today which appears to show the MD is Simon Buckley, who since October has been banned from any directorships.
We all realise that Simon's grasp of the law is similar to his grasp on reality but under the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986
"where a person acts contrary to a disqualification order, undertaking or automatic disqualification without the leave of the court, he is guilty of an offence, and is subject on indictment to a sentence of up to 2 years in prison and/or a fine, or on summary conviction to a sentence of 6 months and/or a fine at the statutory maximum."
Hope you enjoy prison Simon, should bring back memories of your gay nightclub days!
