Lame "Dux"?

Scott Duxbury's future as Chief Executive Officer of West Ham United may not be under official review by the Club, but I have a feeling things are piling up on him and I wonder how long he will be enjoying our pond.

The main issue now, of course, is that he reportedly spoke with both of his tongues at the same time – one to representatives of Kia Joorabchian and one to the PL, not quite saying the same thing to both parties.

One can argue that the whole board must have known about this and Duxbury was just the messenger. That would make him something of a scapegoat.
Regardless, if Duxbury in a future negotiation tries to reassure a possible business partner that all is under control, will he have the credibility needed in those situations? Will he, for instance, be the one sent forward to broker the new sponsorship deal?

He seems to have (had?) the ear and trust of BG but i fear that BG will have to do more reassuring than he cares to in situations that may be important to the Club future. And then, if a chief executive cannot be handed the big issues, what good is he?

When the dust settles after the Tevez/Sheffield affair and his inside information will no longer be able to hurt the Club/board/owner, Scott Duxbury may have outstayed his welcome at the Club, at least as CEO.
