Lol

Surprised they want someone with experience based on our manager recruitment.

[Cheshunto]

Thinking about applying. Do you think 20 years Boardin' is equal to 10 years experience in sport?

20 Minutes on this board Maxy will give you all ya need to fill Danny’s shoes

[EliotNes]

His departure will be a loss. Big boots to fill.

[Give it to Jabo]

Glass more than half-full….

[Smendrick Feaselberg]

I was impressed with a recent podcast interview of him

I would like to know why he decided to resign just after mid season and not wait until the season had ended in a few months after his proposed departure date - particularly as he going be a self employed consultant and not an employee somewhere else.
If we get promoted he could added that to his cv / enjoy the moment and help plan the new season up a division

What would you like the reason to be?

[Currywurst and Chips]

The motivation for anyone doing anything in this sport job wise is usually money

My thoughts are irrelevant and I have no view on what the answer was - it may be due to multiple reasons ie contract length/ family reasons / job satisfaction - future and past if thought

I was more interested to know why a high performing high achiever would not just wait an additional 12 weeks approx that’s all- given potential real chance of promotion is a great feeling and to be part of that at the end in an active role would be very enjoyable

Maybe because his success is built on processes and skills that he can apply rather than football outcomes which have a degree of randomness ? And if he wanted to do something else promotion is irrelevant anyway.

Also, do we want him making decisions that impact on later this/next season onwards when he won't be accountable for them? So the timing of him leaving could be right anyway.

I would like to know why he decided to resign just after mid season and not wait until the season had ended in a few months after his proposed departure date -

Perhaps he had to give 6 months notice. If I was big Nige I'd have had a 6-months notice period in his employee agreement (contract).
6 months would take him to the end of the season.

He ain't leaving the post yet according to the announcement.

I think he’s going at the end of February from what was initially announced.

But why? He's got a steady job.

Self employment isn't all its cracked up to be especially in the Covids era. In suspecting something else is going on.

Love how some people love a conspiracy!

I am only leaving (at end of Feb) because I have the opportunity to set up a Consultancy Business with a good friend and former (pre-Orient) colleague.

I am very much still in the role until that point.

No other reason I can assure, sorry, thanks, Danny

Good. That's that one cleared up, clarified and put to bed.

So will this consultancy business be a partnership or a company? Remember that depending on profit levels it is still tax advantageous to operate through a company and the limited liability protection it gives could save you when you screw up and get sued (obvs, not saying you will). Anyway no matter which route you go down remember client entertaining is NEVER tax deductible.

If he's setting up a sports consultancy then I'm guessing he's already had a good reaction to any sounding out he's done in advance of making a decision. Since he comes from the world of cricket, the end of Feb may be ideal for what he might be trying to achieve in that particular sport?

Can still be a business meeting, even if those attending partake of substances such as cheese and wine and laughing.

I don’t know a lot about the world of cricket, even less than I know about the world of football, but I gather there’s not as much money knocking around there?

I’d guess after dealing with agents and other assorted chancers for the last 4 years and seeing just how much money they make for so little work, he fancies a bit of that himself. And who could blame him?

Good luck DM.

"I am only leaving (at end of Feb) because I have the opportunity to set up a Consultancy Business"

The only "consultants" most of us ever need are either solicitors, accountants or doctors. I wonder how unique his Consultancy Business will be, what will he be offering that will pay more than being the CE at Orient ?

yes I thought I was never going to catch anything and had to change the bait and tactics a few times. But I managed to present the bait attractively and in the end the take was a clean one.

Elsewhere I see you're doing the Boarding equivalent of a Mackie bash on Thorgeson. Cool.
