    Still seems very strange to me..

    I will wait to hear from him and qpr now because that explanation is weak

    It's still strange unless he provides an explanation imo him or QPR

    This thin explanation isn't the truth

    Out of respect following 6 months of takeover talks.

    Suggests to me it's done.

    It's suggests to me it's done, but they don't want to let the cat out the bag, but it might be he's just left for this seemingly thin reason

    so he can concentrate on the Toon takeover. You wouldn’t quit if you had no plan b... or hope to secure plan b.

    I suppose its possible it made his position at QPR rather uncomfortable, but you'd think he'd have something to move to.. Could that be nufc? We don't know, but downie pissed on this idea completely whereas graves seems more positive.. It just seems strange doesn't it? Why hasn't he commented or QPR?

    Well all I know is I worked a few months in uncomfortable circumstances and one day I just though I'm off and off I went... I dunno I'm just saying it's a genuine possibility given what went on that other club insiders wanted him gone .. Just a theory mate and it kinda makes sense given what the reason being given is

    I can understand, it must have been very 'hard' for you working as Rachel Riley's wardrobe and costume change manager...

    How would it be uncomfortable circumstances though I bet the QPR fans couldn’t give a ****.

    I'm suggesting other club insiders might have wanted him out.. It's just a theory.

    Nah if you have someone on the board who is linked to a huge fortune you wouldn’t care you would keep him on.

    If he wasn’t confident of taking a directorship at NCL because the deal is dead.. he wouldn’t resign. It really is that simple.

    silence is key hear and it’s deathly quiet.

    This is a very good sign.
