Our esteemed former CEO has found a new job.

Apparently he's "making cricket better" with something called Cric HQ.

Looks like a crap version of Cricinfo to me but then the walk never did match the talk with him.

CricHQ is a Kiwi company who recently attained US$10,000,000 in VC funding in return for a "minority" stake in the company. The idea is quite a clever one in that anyone who has ever administrated a Cricket Club will tell you it's a very paper heavy process and this site makes this process a lot easier. Billions of Cricket fans means it's fair to assume Millions of amateur players and CricHQ will tap into these, especially as it's R&D is run out of India. The kicker here is that regardless of what the "announced endgame" is, ESPN Cricinfo will buy them if they even look like getting close. Gus is MD or Europe, although his extensive Knowledge of Geography makes him declare this as MD of UK, Ireland & Europe....or did I miss the bit where Ireland and the UK decided to quit Europe? I've already popped a note to fellow Wellingtonian and CEO of CricHQ Simon Baker wishing him all the best in Europe for the coming year. More info here... https://www.crichq.com/

Quite, It's almost as disturbing as the GF obsession that hangs around long after he's gone.

Indeed....it's not like he joined the club, sacked loyal staff and replaced them with his own hand picked people who he then blamed for the massive fall in attendances and no shirt sponsors and fired them, before stealing the RL London sponsor from the guys who had worked so hard to get the deal going, leaked the mailing list of ST holders onto the net, moved us to a North London wilderness, sacking everyone in the process, gave away the 2014 shirt sponsorship just so we wouldn't have a bare shirt and essentially buggered the club from having any future.

I am sure Gutters would be flattered and is probably only upset that he didn't actually get to start this thread!

I am looking forward to seeing how well CricHQ go in Europe this year.

I quite like The Hive.

Now Ealing on the other hand genuinely is a wilderness.
