Don't get me wrong I think he's a twonk but given the parlous state of the club can we really do any better?

No one with any pedigree in sports management will touch us with a bargepole.

So unless we take a punt on someone untried & untested we're stuck with him I reckon.

As a test match venue the Oval is basically a licence to print money & Surrey reported a loss when Gus was in charge.

Still his cricket links did provide that kit supplier GF is so fond of.

I might be mis-remembering, but I think Yorkshire County Cricket declined to apply for an Ashes test last time round because the fees they would have to pay to the ECB for the right to host one were so high they didn't see how they could make any money out of it.

Same here. Several ex Surrey and Sussex staff had nothing good to say about him and commiserated us on having him with us.

Also anyone who knows recent any ex-Broncos staff or has actually met Gus himself will know his character.

Thick, incompetent and totally disliked but buoyed by a level of arrogance and aggression that means no failure, no insult and no criticism will ever get through. He is the king of his own world.

I have Text messages asking me to lay off the personal insults......and I haven't even started yet

HOW DID HE NOT EVEN GET A MENTION?
