Isn't he another Woodward? Happy to be educated, don't know much about him.

1 Feb too late
Transfer window will be closed

And we will be relegated by then

Wonderful news at this difficult time. Really lifted my spirits

He's the man who did most of the sponsorship deals etc... that Woodward would get credit for.

I think he confessed once that he doesn't have too much interest in running the football side of things.

I don't expect much to change. The club will almost certainly continue to try and maximise revenues rather than focus on the performance of the sporting side of the club.

Rugby lad, on record as saying he has zero interest in football outside of deals ...

Were on a roll this week....

Announce martial extension.

I heard something similar. Someone reporting it took it to mean that "here's your budget, John, you deal with the manager and spend it how you see fit." Can't be worse than our previous CEO.

He can start by getting rid of half of the first team.

Scratching round for positives here, at least he's not a vermin supporter...

hate him already

Proof positive, if proof were needed, that utd is officially nothing more than a revenue-generating promotional business with a football team attached.

We are all merely frogs being quietly boiled in a big pot of piss.

Screams Scouse tbh....

Chester and Widnes..

. Arnold grew up in England’s north west. His father was originally from the rugby league town of Widnes, but the family lived just outside Chester. Arnold grew up watching Widnes rugby league club and travelled to games home and away with his dad – once his father had stopped playing.

"I lived through the glory years – and plenty of tough ones,” he said. “I wasn’t built for football and played rugby myself, union mostly. I really enjoyed that and stopped playing when I joined United. I played rugby all over, including the Premier League in South Africa for two seasons. It was an amateur sport, but even if it wasn’t, I was never going to make a living doing it. I also played for Wrexham and Rosslyn Park and enjoyed it a lot.”

He looks like a proper Rugby boy @#%&!. Bet all he talks about is how players in Rugby respect the referee and call him Sir and football players are all soft.

#@&%!.
