- Jack_Petchey abstract "Sir Jack Petchey CBE is a British businessman and philanthropist.He was born into a poor working class family in the East End in 1925. He left school with no qualifications when he was 13. Petchey joined the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm in 1943 during the Second World War and applied for officer training but was unsuccessful. On discharge from the Navy he began working as a clerk for the Solicitor’s Law Stationary Society, though when he applied for management training, he was told he would never make a businessman.Jack refused to give up and investing his £39 discharge gratuity from the Navy, he bought his first second hand car and started a taxi business. He worked long and hard, overcoming adversity and going on to become a multi-millionaire through his various business ventures, which have spanned from motor car dealing and garages to property, travel and investment. Petchey is a West Ham United supporter and was a director at the club from June 1978 until 1989. During his time at the club Petchey offered to finance a move away from the Boleyn Ground (aka Upton Park) to a new 45,000 capacity stadium at Crown Wharf in Canning Town. The club consulted the support who preferred not to move and so the club remained based where it was.He sold his minority stake in West Ham to David Sullivan and David Gold in 1989 and by that time had become chairman of Watford F.C. having bought the club from singer Elton John in 1987. Petchey resold the club to John in 1997.".
