Northern Red Posted October 8, 2022 Report Share Posted October 8, 2022 For what it's worth, the Times reckon he's been interviewed for the role. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Are jobs like RG`s covered by FFP? if not, surely Steve could make him an offer to stay that he couldn`t refuse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are I would have thought. May not be the case moving forward but under the current system. Starting point is all revenue minus all costs, including all wages then subtract FFP allowances and then the Covid writedowns too iirc.

Not only is it a major concern if we lose Gould but it is how long it will take to replace him and who sorts out players contracts in the meantime.

brady bunch Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 He will be a massive loss if he goes, a very good operator, loves our club and as others have said, will be hard to replace. I fear he is a shoe-in for the cricket role and probably just working out the details of the contracts - here and there.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacker Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Hopefully this isn't a stupid question but would there be a possibility that he could perform both roles?I wouldn't have a clue how time consuming either job would be.

Northern Red Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 If he does go there's bound to be a notice period. I imagine the ECB would ideally want someone in place for the start of the new season in April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledAjax Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Wasn't he unequivocally anti-The Hundred? Does that not rule him out of the ECB role given that The Hundred is the ECB's spoilt brat of a child. Anyway I'd be royally pissed off if he was to leave.
