Too strong a character, so our DOF would see him as a threat.

No, but certainly given that Nigel Travis referenced him in the Q&A at the club and discussed the feedback he had provided to Adams following his unsuccessful interview it’s a fair bet that he was in the final shake up I think - don’t you?

So a corporate figure who knows nothing about footballmprovides feedback to an unsuccessful football manager applicant?

Jesus wept.

Would love to know how scintillating Ling’s own interview was, or was he appointed without one?
