Problem is he’s not even an ex player. These so called contacts are a myth. A big challenge with that as well is nobody really liked him as a player.
You’ve gained nothing in which you didn’t have with smith bar a reputable character not know for all the things you’d want in a DOR. Some might be comfortable with that knowing a money man comes with, if it was my club I think I could accept that, but to pretend it’s a good appointment on the basis of what he will bring to the role is disingenuous at best. You can’t be that starved of positivity people clutch at these straws.
Your man Tarquin has got it right, all about the money but putting somebody in this position could do more damage than could. All will be revealed I guess
