Dr Raymond Ashton About Raymond

When looking at Raymond, it wouldn’t be complete without mentioning his passion and knowledge of football which is legendary.  Other than his devotion to Manchester City Football Club, where he has had a long and close association including being a one-time shareholder prior to the purchase and expansion of the Club, on and off pitch, by Sheikh Mansour in 2008.  

Even the reason for Raymond’s support of Manchester City FC is naturally linked to Guernsey. His mother was evacuated from Guernsey just before the invasion of the Channel Islands during the Second World War and along with many other Guernsey children was on the same boat heading for the UK as the young Bill Spurdle who spent a good part of his footballing career at Manchester City FC.
