But there could be a consortium backing him.
Always possible, rule nothing out. |

If he owns Supermarine would he be allowed to own STFC as well? Probably not but there are ways as means I suppose. |

Big Town fan too, not sure he has the funds available though to be taken seriously.
Could he be thinking of going down the route of what Exeter City and make the club effectively supporter owned? (I think that's what the Grecians do) I know the STFC Trust are currently doing something so maybe there is something in the pipeline around that kind of thing? |

As a front and a contributor to a wider group, Jezz might be feasible. Has been rumored for a while, on and off.
WONGA shirt sponsorship incoming...

As long as it stabilzes the future of the club and makes us competitive on the pitch I am all for it. |

Any mention of fan ownership will get The Nestor Lorenzo Heade going again.

I don't know anything about the wood chap and will not make any ill judged remarks. All I will say is that he doesn't appear to fit the profile of the 'type' of owner many supporters are likely to be clamouring for. From the limited information available, he doesn't appear to be of a similar background to, say, the backer at FGR.

They both like trees and wood? |

Lovely bloke. I know him through business, always says hello when I see him at the wood yard and when I drop in to Supermarine for a game. |

Your last sentence is correct. Jazz is genuine and not up his own arse, nor a publicity seeker. Quietly gets on with it. |

Leaving aside any other qualities considered to be less endearing, I suspect that most supporters are only concerned about money.
I suspect that the tendency to be up one's own arse is likely to be overlooked if/when the cash rolls in.
