The brothers will have a CEO in mind, I bet. The appointment will hopefully come before much of the planning for next season needs to commence though. We need everything to be smooth to keep this positive progression going. I’m sure it will.

I would hope the next CEO focuses on making the fans feel more involved and picks up from where Jason Turner left off. This is a family club that is nothing without its fans and while the celebrations together were great to see, we need to encourage hopefulness between club and fans.

i am curious about the process the club will undertake in order to find a suitable ceo, i think pulling a business mind from outside of football might be a good call. someone who has a good history working with companies, as the football side will come with time. im not saying we will, but how many unemployed ceo are there that have football experience? probably not many. we might even recruit someone from the national league, i think that is quite likely.

That's fair @Chris, we've experienced hands-on owners quite a few times, and they're the reason we plummeted four divisions. So maybe I'm scarred! It's hard to say exactly how involved the brothers are from the outside, but my impression is that they largely stick to the financial side. It's certainly worked well so far. 

Chances are they've learned a lot from Jason Turner over the last four years. Maybe they've added a potential successor to their contact book over that time?

I believe the right person will be chosen to come in. I trust that the owners will carefully select the next CEO. They have already hired two great managers, so I have confidence in their decision.

Good luck finding a new CEO! You know what they say, 'when one door closes, another one opens'. And let me tell you, that door is going to lead you to some amazing things. Just believe in the process and your owners. And hey, Jason Turner is irreplaceable but that just means that whoever comes in next is going to be even more amazing! And let's be honest here, you don't want a dud. Because if you wish for a dud, then you're just going to end up with disappointment. So yeah, just keep your head up and keep moving forward. And who knows? Maybe that new CEO is going to continue the start of your amazing journey.

PS. Great gesture with the photo of Jason Turner at Wembley, I am certain he watched over you. Very touching!

I’m not great at the advice. Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?

CEOs are pretty standard; they manage people and look at ways to improve the business. They should have a fairly easy job coming into Notts. Their first priority for me would be to inform the fans and keep up the personalised approach that Jason Turner made so frequently when he needed to update us. After that, just make sure the staff are doing what they should be and are actually answering emails. I think the ticket office could do with some work too.

The Reedtz will still need someone behind them who knows the game inside out and has contacts that can make things happen for the club. Personally, I hope that the next CEO has worked with bigger teams than one coming up from the lower leagues. I understand that whoever comes in should do a good job, but as we continue our journey, it would be handy to have someone familiar with League One, the Championship etc.

There should be plenty of candidates for the position. The job is quite standard in terms of what they do, but it is a demanding role that requires a lot of hands-on work and time. I trust the board to appoint a good CEO to continue from Jason Turner. His shoes may never be completely filled, but having someone who tries would help.

It’s not a concern of mine. The board will choose wisely and it’s more about the internal process than anything else. We only need to know about recruitment and that the club is operating at its best financially.

The board have shown they carefully make these crucial decisions. I can’t see why selecting a new CEO would be any different. I believe the brothers are firstly businessmen, secondly good judges of character and thirdly understand how people’s skills can be used to return a better productivity level. Their decision to hire Ian Burchnall was very good, proven even better by giving Luke Williams the manager’s job. They were fortunate enough to have Jason Turner at the club when they arrived, but I see no reason why they can’t make a good hiring in this department. It should be more within their alley.

I believe that whoever comes in will understand the club’s history while appreciating what Jason Turner did. I hope they establish a good connection with the fans and are prepared to work hard to win them over.

The club will appoint a smart CEO, someone who will have been interviewed and told the board their vision. I hope they have experience working with a club of Notts’ size or higher. Those are my only two wishes.

When people ask what 'American Pie' is about, they're missing the point. The song isn't about the lines themselves - it's about what is between the lines. The song is about what isn't there.
