He did skip answering directly if the club was now debt-free, though.
You sure? I swear I heard that we were.

Same, even the Trusts Twitter feed quotes Power as saying we are now debt free and don't owe Andrew Black anything unless we get into the Prem or a new stadium.

Any chance of them producing accounts to actually demonstrate that then? Or even whasserface's "commentary" or whatever it was that was going to be published a year or more ago?

I think what was implied by Lee Power was that Andrew Black now held a Debenture in the club and could get some of his money back with payment on it when we were worth something. A repayment of a small amount compared to what he invested.

Ok, read back through my tweets, didn't remember half of them by the end. He did say the club was debt free, and would only owe Black money if got new ground or into the prem. And in that case it would only be a small proportion of what Black wrote off

Perhaps a truly independent media that no longer depended on the club's patronage could seek to call them to account...

They were pretty tame as long as they were dependent on maintaining good relations with the club. Might get more interesting now. And who could blame them?

Yep there might actually be some proper journalism required now.

In fairness, I don't know what kind of journalism (short of actual breaking and entering) you imagine might produce the publication of a set of company accounts.

Nope. He was asked about the transfer money incomings and if that meant we were now debt-free. Power then answered by going on about the infrastructure and he did say we owned Black nothing unless we get to the PL whereby then he would get a smalish back on the amount he wrote off. Nowhere did he say we own nobody nothing. No.

I assume they will have to produce some accounts at some stage if only to meet Companies House requirements.
