Sorry, hit reply too soon...

1. His department has just made a cock up that has cost us a fortune - who's accountable for that? You guessed it...

2. The 'notice period'. There could be a bit of wriggle room here of course as someone quite rightly said he could have agreed a mutual termination.

3. The bloke in charge of our Commercial activity is about to leave for a new challenge before we go into the single biggest commercial gold mine in football - yeah, ok...

4. (And most telling IMO) The club are on the PR offensive, look at all of the usual mouthpieces who have made an effort to state that he's not been pushed - Jake Humphrey, Mick Dennis, Archant.
