Well he said clearly that if he doesn’t have a “signed deal” that he would step down. And the discussion afterwards was that it had to be a substantial deal for funding not some flimsy meaningless going nowhere deal. So if this is his play then we may have to re initiate the vote to move him on as we all know that changing the team will not negatively impact any deals as it’s been proven over the decades.
I believe everyone is seasoned enough in the game to not fall for that one again!
