Too Many Browns[edit]

The section that deals with Jim Brown's time as commercial manager and the Darren Brown era has a number of places where it just says "Brown" without specifying which. Is there an accepted way to differentiate them, given that these are in some cases direct quotes? MadScot (talk) 19:43, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, any mentions of the chairman use Darren Brown in order to differentiate, apart from the the single time in the quote, as it is a direct quote. Perhaps putting Darren in brackets before it would eliminate any confusion on that one? Kosack (talk) 20:10, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
