I don't really know what to make of him. He's Head of Commercial, so regardless of how you dress it up, his primary concern is going to be maximising revenue and profit.
I have a bigger issue with Tim, to be honest. He's CEO, his job is to create a vision for and set the tone of the club. The vision he's created is Top-30 club and the tone he's set is customer-not-fan. Benson has been brought in to help deliver that vision, and the way he's approaching that is unsurprising given his boss' numbers over people approach.
I just keep coming back to the fact I don't think Tim is a good CEO. He's undoubtedly an intelligent guy, was probably an excellent accountant, but he just doesn't seem to get people.

And this is why Grant being away from the club a lot really bugs me. He’s on social media, he sees all the current unrest.
If he was around showing authority to TW & AB then their actions would be held to account far more.
I think with an absent ownership group (no idea what their aim is), an absent owner in most.. it leaves Tim in charge of the club.
So there lies the issue.
It’s no surprise we also think there are major issues on the on pitch side too with that being the case. There should be a sporting director at the club if they want to work this way.
They would work below/alongside Tim.
