Which leaves us in a strange position.
As chairman stated the club needs someone who knows what they are doing during investment negotiations and a final deal.
But with chairman and Derek Weir leaving who would that be? Perhaps an incoming CEO, but the potential investor talked about has said he has a CEO in waiting, so our new CEO is expected to take a job in the knowledge that his first main task will possibly be to negotiate investment with an interested party who wants to bring his own CEO in.
Will the current CEO candidates remain interested once this is known?, if so will they have the quite detailed financial & corporate knowledge needed for this task, or more likely I think that the club will have to outsource for this task.
That is all assuming the Well Society give the green light to diluting their shareholding to open negotiations.
Some passionate arguments articulated both ways and I think this has the potential for quite heated debate
