News Brian Cooks replacement

Can’t understand why he would. He wanted to retire and has a part time deal for next year to oversee the stadium development. It’s not like he needs the money, he’d be loaded.

Agree with this. Find it hard to believe he'd go back to being a CEO after his comments at the time he announced his retirement. Maybe a part-time mentoring role. That said, everyone has a price I guess.

It's surprising what people can be persuaded of when suitors play to their egos.

Fairly much what I was putting, Fred. My 3 caveats would be that BC has purportedly agreed to a part-time role with us. He said when he relinquished the CEO's job he wanted to ease the pressure and spend more time with his grandkids as the Covid experience had taken its toll. Then there's the very close connection with the late Alex Popescu - something I've referred to before and was the single most significant reason for him not accepting the Norf job some years ago in my view.

Maybe a consulting role. But who knows.
