Do we know what's going to be happening with NEbus now that MG has gone, since it seemed to be his pet project.
Is it just going to quietly disappear or is someone else taking over as the head?

You've got to bare in mind that he was somewhat restricted at Arriva, because there's a lot more top-down diktat than he'll get at Go Ahead. At GNW, they had started smartening up the inherited fleet and branding some other stuff, so I wouldn't expect anything to change dramatically with branding early doors. 

I don't know how invested other operators are in NE bus. I think (with its predecessor organisations) it has had a Go North East chair for as long as I can remember...
