No conspiracy theory needed. CCharlton wanted him. He wanted to come. Unfortunately he has been unable to sell his shares so the deal is off
I note your spelling of Charlton is the same "mistake" as the spelling of "Aaron" on Elvis's grave. He didn't die in 1977 and you are clearly a part of the Charlton CEO coverup.
We definitely do not need a CEO. As Chairman, GC acts as the central point ensuring football and non-football related activities are working in harmony, and also the primary conduit to GFP ownership group. An issue there is that GC also has a day job of his own but would appear to be the ideal person.
Structure with three board directors:
Chairman
Chief Operating Officer (Ed Warwick/ANO) with the following responsibility - football experience is not a prerequisite.
- Finance (HoF is enough, an FD is not required)
- C&B and Hospitality
- Third Party Commercial Partnerships/Sponsorship
- Marketing/Comms
- Ticketing
- HR
- Stadium and Training Ground Facilities Operations incl H&S/Maintenance/Security
- Admin/Secretarial
Director of Football (Jim Rodwell/ANO) with the following responsibility in close cooperation with First Team Manager - football experience is a prerequisite.
- First Team and Academy Operations
- Player Performance Analysis - existing and potential new recruits
Why would the Dane Murphy have any bearing on Knibbs joining or not in the first place?
He was the last person to have the cheque book, and now he's gone we had to place a stop on it, Reading wouldn't accept luncheon vouchers or an IOU until the replacement chequebook arrived and so told us to go boil our heads.

Got a lot of time for Gavin Carter but not only does he have another job, he is based on a different continent.
Yes, technology means he can stay in touch but he is still very much a non-executive Chairman as well as a minority shareholder.
Titles mean little and are often as much for external viewing or individual status (see the use of Vice-president in US companies) but I think we do need one, on the ground, leader whether we call them a CEO or something else.

The club needs a leader who is also its public face, especially as the substantive owners don’t want that role. Gavin Carter isn’t going to be able to do it, as you say, and I don’t think Rodwell or Warrick fits the bill.

Indeed and Murphy seemed much more suited to that side of it.

Spot on, @AirmanBrown. An on the ground leader, directly in touch with day to day club develoments, must surely be an absolute necessity.

There is more chance of hell freezing over.
Rumbled at last.
