Ok, Cullum? I have concerns.
This club needs new direction and leadership, that much has been painfully obvious since the AGM.
Cullum looks like the most likely hope, so fine, I hope he comes in.
He will not however be a white Knight IMHO, he won't make us a Chelsea,QPR, Man Citeh, he won't even make us a wolves.
BUT if he can help pay the bills, and gives us some bloody transfer budget for a few years I'm happy.
I DO have real concerns though over his stated intent to not run the club himself. IIRC he intended to appoint people from within his staff to do so (while maintaining a 'figurehead'). Maybe not a bad thing, proper business people, i suppose its no different from Doncaster's job now, but it concerns me.
I, and i may be in a minority, like our clubs identity and attempt to do things in the 'right' way.
My fear is the club being more business like will remove many of the aspects that i'm proud of and the things we do well.
And no, i'm not sure i'd want to swap all of that for sucess on the pitch.
A lot of it? Probably, but I still want the club to feel like the one i know and love.
Of course, its all guess work and who knows, but i think that's why he worries me.
I can't shake the feeling it may be a bit like selling our souls to the devil for sucess, and that doesn't interest me.
Howver, this club is clearly dying on its arse, and therefore I would welcome him, welcome him happily.
I'd have doubts though, but i'd much rather get the chance to find out if my worries are justified than not.
