New Aberdeen Chief Exec. Was there no talk of him coming here?

New Aberdeen Chief Exec. Was there no talk of him coming here?

Only of the 2+2=5 variety I think. It was fairly obvious from the timing and the way his Motherwell departure was announced that he'd been tapped for a job somewhere

Sorry, didn't realise there was a thread already.......

I'll delete mine.

Here it is anyway.
A bit weird...... the ex-Motherwell CEO who stepped down as CEO there after 15 years in the job, has now been appointed at the Sheepies.
After his emotional 'cheerio' to his beloved club.


"I have hugely enjoyed working with my fellow directors, the amazing, hard-working staff and the countless players, managers and coaches in that time.
"I want to thank and pay tribute to each and every one of them; I have so many terrific memories.
“I would also like to thank the supporters who accepted me as one of them, and gave me room and time to get comfortable in my role, particularly at the start.
“I have discussed my future with the chairman for some time and although there isn’t always an ideal time, I felt a new year gives everyone the chance for fresh start.
"I would like to give someone else the chance to drive our club forward. Someone who can perhaps bring new, exciting ideas and a different approach.
Although I’ll shortly leave Fir Park for the last time, my heart will always be with this fantastic club. Thanks again for everything."

Motherwell chairman Jim McMahon added: "We are really sorry to be losing Alan as our chief executive. I have had the privilege of knowing him for a very long time, latterly in the Chair/CEO relationship.


“Through this period I have watched him develop into one of the best and most dedicated CEOs I have worked with in my career.

“His drive, imagination and love for this club have been key in all that we have achieved over the past years.

“We could not have asked for a better representative or leader – he stands for everything the club and fans exemplify – for all our principles. Although we are losing him, we also wish him every success in the future."


Bet you feckin dinnae.
