Stewart Regan

Regan was Strategic Planning Director for Bass and part of the senior team involved in the sale of the company's brewing arm to the American brewer, Coors.

[3][4] Within the first months of his appointment at the SFA, Regan had to manage the Scottish football referee strike, drafting in foreign officials as replacements to ensure the organisation was not in breach of contract with its broadcasting partners.

Oriam was opened at a cost of £33m in August 2016, on time and within budget; it became the home for the SFA's Performance Department and all of Scotland's national football teams.

[8] Regan was also Chairman of Hampden Park Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of the SFA, from 2015 to 2018 and led the winning Glasgow bid to host the 2020 UEFA European Championship[9] (which took place in 2021 due to the impact of the Covid19 pandemic).

[citation needed] Regan resigned his position at the Scottish Football Association in February 2018 in the wake of negative publicity surrounding the decision of the Northern Ireland national coach Michael O'Neill to stay in Belfast having been offered the Scotland job.
