    Cool. Thanks for that. I wouldn’t have thought he would leave a company like that unless he’s seen something to really excite him.
    ie. the plans for the future

    Bloody hell ive just googled it. Wonder if he can persuade them into a bit of sponsorship

    I find it utterly bizarre that I can’t find anything about him on the internet. No press releases, thought leadership etc.

    It’s not a problem whatsoever, it’s just stumped me. Even Stewart Donald was easy to find stuff out about.

    Exciting times ahead. Can't wait to see where we are in a few years. It's crazy to think given all the money pumped into the club by Short, that we're only just now starting to sort a structure out.

    Crazy by a billionaire imo.

    Donald has his own business, owned a previous club and is a self publicist.

    Davison has been buried in the same company for decades with no high profile moves.

    Totally different people, thankfully.

    oh absolutely. It’s just unusual for somebody senior in a consulting firm to not have any sort of hit on google. It’s not a problem and I actually don’t think it’s that “big” an appointment as frankly that role just needs a sensible, motivated and knowledgable operator, which clearly he will be with his operational experience and the fact he’s a fan means he won’t be blasé about it.

    I've been on nightshift last night, hopefully when I wake up this afternoon, the takeover has been announced, and I can have a very happy nightshift tonight. Come KLD make it happen.

    I'm probably mistaken, but, under the new regime, I was expecting Rodwell to depart....seems like he's staying?

    Given the **** show he came into I think he has done a good job, he’s had a pandemic to deal with, a dreadful manager, and probably a lack of support from Donald.

    Agree,I just thought KLD would want his own man in place as CEO.

    Possibly he's prepared to give Rodwell a chance as other than a couple of communication cock ups he's done ok
