    Was this his "big news" then? Or was that a crock of sheit?

    That reads to me that they've been aware of his impending departure for a while, and are looking to get someone in place before January so that we can go our separate ways ASAP.

    I guess it explains the deafening silence from him for the last few months.

    It's quite strange that it's been allowed to get to this stage whilst he's still under contract though.

    I imagine whatever his big news is, it relates to the club, and isn't dependant on him being here.

    If its anything like what I've heard, I understand it taking so long to be announced.

    Why Khaled mentioned it at the end of last season though is beyond me, as its just been a stick to beat him over the head with ever since.

    Can’t say I’m disappointed he’s leaving. Not the greatest CEO we’ve ever had….

    Just a ploy to sell season tickets.

    Whilst I’m not sure he was the best CEO we’ve had, I don’t think he’s the worst.
    I’d welcome Dane Murphy back with open arms.

    Done ok but made some huge errors. Seems a nice guy but I’m sure we can upgrade.

    Wonder if the replacement will give daily updates to appease part of the fan base?

    Disappointed to see SuperTyke hasn't appeared on this thread yet.

    If the new CEO gave daily updates, there would be some that complained about the lack of comms.
    If the new CEO gave hourly updates, there would still be some on here that complained about the lack of comms.

    Fantastic news. Says a lot when Don Rowing was better than you. Good riddance. Worse CEO we’ve had since we’ve had a CEO.
