    New non-executive Director signs in

    Great news. Surely no coincidence that this appointment is announced the day after one of our better transfer windows.

    Onwards and (hopefully) upwards.

    Hopefully he knows how to sort the football side of the Millers board.
    Proper valuations of players & their contracts.

    If you listen to the part of him saying, 'Well look, with my mind apart, I'm making sure Matt feels backed, supported and motivated by the board, I think he has all those things today but we can enhance that some more'. There's your answer of why so many players came in yesterday, his money, his interjection and what timing.

    His persona, stance, intellect, care for the club he's followed for 50 years, makes me feel there really is a footballing god looking down on us. A man of drive, passion, and determination just in his voice, makes you want to applaud him and all that from a Rotherham lad born into a steel working family....totally grounded.

    Here's the full interview....

    Interesting interview. If he is well-connected to the Stewarts, he won't be too critical of past and recent performance. He highlights the

    past achievements and the continuing benefit of the current ownership, but I'm hoping there's an unspoken agenda which will include

    some financial investment as well as a performance review.

    He speaks of us as being a Championship club, but running a club at that level takes serious money. Selling a company for 400m is a lot

    of money, but not many years of serious investment at Ch. level.

    Does anyone know just how deep his pockets are?

    Thanks for putting the link up Giddy.

    It sounds exciting and realistic and ambitious at the same time.

    On another note, I seriously hope he's looking to turn those empty bloody units into something that have remained empty for 14 years, they are an eyesore on what is a good stadium.

    Er, is that not the commercial director’s remit?

    To a degree or, if they have been instructed to leave it be all these years then, it's down to the owner to say why it's still empty.

    Going back to the COO interview Brin, it was reported from that, that Tony thought no need to go advertising, everyone knows they are available. If true, you have your answer.
