Raymond Arthur Trew (born December 1954)[1] is a businessman and former football club chairman from Lincolnshire.
[4] Trew also maintains numerous other private companies,[1] though in 2019 his application for a gangmaster's license was turned down on the grounds that his previous business conduct was not 'fit and proper'.
[9] He departed in January 2006 after a boardroom dispute which saw manager Keith Alexander placed on gardening leave, then re-instated.
[11] A subsequent bid to buy the club and provide substantial investment was blocked by the Lincoln City board, with chairman Steff Wright publicly questioning Trew's motives.
[14] In 2008 the club changed its name to OOH Lincoln Ladies, due to a sponsorship deal with Trew's Out Of Home marketing company.
