CaptainofIndustry 921 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Graham Wallace announced the 120 day business review on Dec 18th. If it started the next day, are we now 41 days in, i.e. over 1/3 of the way through?Or did it start the day Philip Nash joined, which I think was 13 Jan, in which case this is day 16?Just wondering if there's a time frame to this 120 days or if it's a nebulous term. Anyone know? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainofIndustry 921 Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 It would start from when he announced it. Did he not make a reference to it in his interview with English the other week?That was my question. He announced it in a televised interview on the afternoon of the AGM, i.e. 18 Dec. I'm wondering if it's begun in earnest and when it's likely to end, especially if Nash becomes FD. Will someone else then carry out the review or will it quietly merge into business as usual?

I wouldn't read to much into the Nash appointment as I suspect Stockbridge was lined up for a job loss before the Nash involvement was announced.

Jocky Broon 207 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I would have thought it started almost immediately after the AGM and therefore would finish around end March. I see the hiring of Nash as part of the process and not the start date for the 120 days. Personally I have no reason to mistrust Wallace's words and I fully expect he or the Club will be making statements during the 120 days e.g. the discussion to reduce Players wages by 15% as well as making a final announcement.

CaptainofIndustry 921 Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 Some can't wait for that time to pass so they can start agitating again.Worse than tims.No idea if that's aimed at me but I'm hoping we'll see positive, meaningful and constructive outputs from the review.I'm very much hoping we don't see a complete cop-out, i.e. fans groups welcomed back into the fold to front a club membership scheme, a handful of lowly paid employees sacrificed, the management team staying on unchanged and Paul Murray rejoining the board as FD.I just have a nagging feeling that we might see exactly that outcome.

theiconicman 2,998 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 He is not releasing a plan after this. He asked for 120 days to review the business. So I wouldn't get your hopes up for a wonder plan on day 121. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm asking for clarity of the timeline. Is that a problem?Seeing as you've interjected, though, maybe you could break down his three principal achievements thus far, i.e. firing one highly-paid accountant, hiring another on even more money and speaking to wholly unrepresentative fans group leaders. All part of the review process, I guess? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

devref 201 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 don't think it will have started until after the holiday period that would be around the 6th Jan by the time everyone got back to work. so 120 days from then makes it the week starting Monday the 5th may.
