JJB chief steps down
Struggling British sportswear retailer JJB Sports was dealt a further blow with David Jones, chairman and architect of its rescue, stepping down to continue his long-running battle against Parkinson's Disease.
The firm said yesterday that Jones, a former chief executive of fashion retailer Next who has suffered from the debilitating neurodegenerative disease since 1982, will step down as chairman on Jan 31 but will remain a non-executive director.
