    I’m sure the EFL would release him if he wanted the City job.

    Notice periods can be lengthy for CEO’s but let’s hope so

    I doubt it, they'd need a replacement in.

    Dave Baldwin worked his socks off last time he was down at Valley Parade.
    I have bags of respect for him and would welcome him back behind the scenes.
    Approachable and knowledgeable individual, we could do a lot worse if he's interested in a return.

    Could he take the drop in salary, we know he's dyed-in-the-wool Claret & Amber but hes bills to pay, fingers crossed.

    I can't think of anyone better. Money isn't everything in life. I recall he worked for nothing when he first came to City having sold his previous business. A good bloke.

    Unless Rhodes stays on for 6 months can’t see it happening. He says he is seeing his contract out

    Here we go again
    2+2 =16
    Just because he has given notice to the EFL (according to @Fordy117@Fordy117
    Doesn't mean he's going to scrape the Barrell with us

    I would think 6 months in these dark days are no problem, if as rumoured Dave Baldwin was lined up originally IMO it would be in Rupps best interest to makes sure Dave Baldwin is brought back to the club, he did well originally, went to Burnley and did a great job and the EFL thought he was the right man pretty good CV.

    I would hope Dave's given it some thought, as above not a bad CV.

    Great CV Dave and he knows the club but unless he is replacing Mr Rupp as well
    Can't see there's much here for him

    Just checking - are we still on a downer about bringing back the ‘old guard’?

    Don't think paying the bills is a problem to Dave Baldwin.

    Even if he didn't serve his notice, it is likely that he will need a 6 month period of gardening leave before he takes another football job.
    If he works his notice, it will be 12 months before he could be appointed as our CEO.
