There's lots of changes seemingly afoot but that is most likely from a pride point of view (pleasing how he has become passionate about us), looking a right twonk on the telly (no one likes that), and to placate the fans.

Time will tell but apart from trying to keep pass sales up for next season I wouldn't have thought IMO there's much more financial reasons driving his thinking.'"
