Looks like we have found a winner in that department.

I think the biggest short-term thing that Moshiri could do for us is sort out or dire sponsorship. I know he isn't the CEO but he's going to have huge input on this.

Would be great if he binned Chang and Umbro so we got a sponsor and kit manufacturer that actually paid a decent sum of money. Would also be great if he told Kitbag to 'koff and we started stocking our shirts everywhere across the world instead of restricting the sales through a single distributor that nobody knows about.

Sounds superb to be honest.

Was this on the cards already - or is it the Moshiri effect starting to kick in??

Never see people wearing our shirts ever...

Although we aren't FKW's to be fair.

What annoys me is that Kenwright looks to still think he's in the power seat at the club, the way he gegged in on the interview and gave the lionshare of it. Thought he was also out of place backing the managers position as well. For me he was like the dad told to sit down whilst the son served the Xmas roast yet was still trying to be the main man, struggling to take that back seat.

I just hope Moshiri is his own man and has the power to hire and fire whoever he wants across the whole club, and not be threatened with the veto from Bill.

....I don't think there's any doubt Moshiri is his own man. He's a world class businessman who makes things happen.

I imagine this will be the start of Moshiri's changes within the club.

Bill is still the chairman though so I suspect the interview was directed at him out of courtesy if nothing else. Mr Mosh recognises that it was Bill's train set so is probably allowing him one last go.

Onwards. Upwards

Finally, the days of the non-existent board and non-existent board meetings, and of receiving instructions from a ‘friend of the club’ are now at an end. The combination of new investment alongside the media uplift couldn’t have been timed better.

Another possible tantalising glimpse of the future was to be found in the directors box on Saturday. As Kenwright and Moshiri took their seats, a few rows behind the main attraction, Lord Owen was in attendance.

Lord Owen is an associate of both Farhad Moshiri and Alisher Usmanov, having been the Chairman of Middlesex Holdings, a London based investment company, from 1995 to 2006.

Interestingly Lord Owen resigned from three companies on 21st December 2015, as a director of Europe Steel plc, a trading company of Ural Steel, a subsidiary of Metalloinvest, owned by Alisher Usmanov, and as a consultant to both Epion Holdings Limited and USM Holdings Limited. Both registered in the BVI and both also owned by Alisher Usmanov.

If you had never ever done a live TV interview, but agreed to do one, having an experienced bloke taking the lions share of it would be a flaming relief!
