    That the Chief Executive was the managers agent when he was a player.

    If this is true, did it bear any relevance on his appointment?

    If he was then it probably did but not in a dodgy way, it probably just meant that he knew what he was like as a person and felt that made him ideal. I doubt it was for any suspicious reasons
