Also very interesting and heartening to hear the interviewer state that despite everything we have all had to endure in the last few seasons we are almost up to 6000 season ticket sales after just over a month of of release. We must still be up there with the most long suffering and loyal fans in the business. Great too for all the disbelievers to note that Jon Clark is here already and sitting in on the coaching staff meetings on Sunday and Monday this week.

Like what I heard in Johns first interview, appears very calm and measured but equally very clear on what he expects from his players.

Touches on how quota is full, and that any recruitment would most likely be domestic, suggesting that Sao won’t be going anywhere (for now). There is room to spend if the right person comes available.

Overall pretty promising, as mentioned above zero mention of either Myler or Pearson, which is odd for that type of interview. Maybe as to why will come clearer today…

I also liked his thoughts re the club, players and fans which he highlighted that aspect with Paramatta being part of the community and that the players here will understand that.

So is today the day we hear something?

Three trails of thoughts from me:

1. If it is indeed Thirkill investing, maybe nothing could be said officially until his tenure as Leeds Club President was complete. Seeing as that ended yesterday, hopefully that means that there's nothing to stop any announcement today.
2. Wouldn't be at all surprised that we don't hear anything until the week of the Fans Forum and Dinner so that everything has a positivity about it.
3. I'm making this up as I go along and I am now off for a cuppa and a bacon sarnie.
