Chris Heck - President of Business Operations

[PeterWithe]

Anyway, Chris Heck. Wonder if they will have a whip round for a carriage clock?

Done his job.

Keith Wyness lined up I hear.

Maybe we should go back to Tony Stephens. 

[Sexual Ealing]

Whoever they appoint, I hope they remember what a pivotal role it is. I don't know who Sawiris has got running his call centre, but they'd better be good.

Wonder if this will impact on the North Stand plans, him coming in did?

[kippaxvilla2]

Yes this will buy another couple of years for his replacement to say we need to pause it.

Can't see why it would. Last time the plans were not as far advanced and Emery also had a say in not losing the North Stand during the season we were running for Europe. We also have more building experience on the board so I suspect the incoming person will be more looking at continuing the rest of operation with someone else in charge of the stadium build.

Anyone who thinks Heck leaving is good because he’s going to be replaced by some sort of patrician, authentic voice of the fans style person who ‘gets’ us is absolutely kidding themselves.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Aren't our new shareholders stadium construction experts? I'd imagine they developed the solution of maintaining existing facilities whilst expanding the number of seats.

Apparently he's leaving to do the same role for that shit Saudi golf thing

It’s interesting how the Saudis have latched on to one of the few things even worse than the Saudis.

Golf, I mean, not Heck.

Tom Fox is looking for a gig.

I think it is probably more that the club just went back to the architects and told them to rethink.

Especially with the rumours that Emery wasn't happy losing the fans at one end during a pivotal European season.

No “really going to miss him” platitudes from Nas and Wes in the club statement, I note.
