And just to get his title correct - he is the CEO.

thats the new CEO (the job Gordon Smith was after), not the new managing director as per the thread.

Paul Barber, is he here to TRIM the costs and CUT some players wages?

 

[Bozza]

Mixed feelings from Whitecaps fans when resignation announced.

One fan described Barber's tenure as a failure.

Barber spent a bit of time at Coventry last season.

Don't like the sound of this appointment at all from reading those links.
Ah well, hopefully it'll turn out for the best. Time will tell.

You don't reckon he'll stick around for long? Hair today, gone tomorrow?

I bet you a pantene he lasts longer than two years.

This quote doesn't give me much confidence ( from Vancouver southsiders )

"Well, he did some good things but overall he was a bit of cocky twat who didn't seem particularly dialed in to the things that matter to most people here."

he sounds shamPOO, looks like he's here PERManently

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Yeah those links make terrible reading.

He's here to help the team gel. Apparently the fringe players are getting a bit upset.

should be a hair raising experience, rumour has it he's a fan of Albions style, and likes the way they pass it short at the back and sides

 

[WhingForPresident]

I hear he insists that his managers play with a midfield QUARTET.

I'm sure Gus won't be splitting any hairs though.

interesting article - fans were complaining that he did not bring success on the pitch, but brought money into the club via sponsorship. It is gus's job to do well on the pith and hopefully barber can bring in some cash to help him do it. Could be a shrewd appointment.

 

[Doc Lynam]

Apparently he made them number 1 for marketing and sponsorship. I'm guessing this mean revenue earned!

Edit: you just beat me to it Clive.
