BBC Sport’s Simon Stone
I don’t think he’s the type of chief executive that’s going to be in the media every two seconds explaining club policy. He’s very much a kind of behind closed doors person.
He has vast experience, he was Manchester United’s general counsel when he came to the club and David Gill in particular rated him very, very highly. Then in latter times he’s been United’s face on the European Clubs Association at Premier League meetings.
Clearly the club has changed. I suspect if he’d have wanted to stay in his job that that could have happened. I think like many other people at Manchester United, he felt that with the regime change, it was time for something new. I suspect the idea of joining a club like Rangers would appeal very much to him.
He is more of a person who is going to make sure Rangers are run properly, that is run well and will be the face of Rangers at the major events involving the European Clubs Association, I would imagine within the Scottish Premiership and that will be his role.
It will be fascinating to see how he adapts if he’s got to step up and speak more to the media, because that is not something that he’s been used to doing at Manchester United.
