Not saying this is the case here. On the face of it, this might imply that the owners are more open to ideas and suggestions from somebody with genuine skills and experience, recognising that their own plan and thinking is to some degree flawed. The timing is odd though. You'd expect this sort of announcement in the close season or at a low ebb mid-season.
