I heard on the grapevine a while ago that he was trying to modernise things which meant a lot of the old men on council would've lost most of their power and perks. Wonder if it's anything to do with that?

Most Welsh clubs are just tinpot Dover types with no fanbase. He's done a tremendous job otherwise I'd say.

While allegedly lining his pockets at there expense.

I'd have him in a heartbeat though, sounds like he's upset the blazer brigade who are no better.

Allegedly, It is understood that many clubs in Wales have been dismayed with the FAW’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic and the perceived failure to support them during the health crisis.
But as others have said his program to update the game have not gone down well with the blazer brigade.

3) Spend your money on Terraced Houses

More news coming out that the FAW has been split over the handling of matters in the wake of COVID

I'd be surprised if Ford is in the running, as these revelations seem to have come out after the 3 candidates were lined up

I'd be amazed if the instructions were anything else from him.

https://wsa.wales/team-members/jonathan-ford/

His background fits well, previously he was European Sponsorship Director of the Coca-Cola Company. Someone with that level of marketing/sponsorship experience would be ideal.

He might command too high a salary perhaps. Hard to say how much R&R&HK would be prepared to pay for the right person.
