I know of at least one local company who, until recently, hadn't been paid from a job this year. Heard a couple of delayed payments elsewhere too.
Perhaps payments have been made since but it's the standard tactic.
It’s just another thing to add to to what seems to be an ever growing list. |

The Australian league transfer fees exceeded AUS 10 million in the closed season 2023.
Many young players are coming through local schools but lots from south east Asia but many young players from Africa and Middle East.
Try and watch Adelaide first game on Friday night against CCM.Standard of football was very good and is equally as high as STFC.
Just a foot note. I am told Poxford have similar thing going in Tanzania. Not sure how well established yet.

When do we find out if Clem’s bought a chunk of the shares he flogged on the sly back? Wasn’t that a thing that had a timeline that he said was happening?

As well as naturally trying to find Oz football talent to play for STFC it's also a very good revenue opportunity for the club to the tune of 6 figures per season if they get it right.
Is this something the club are going to promote via official sources? Is it actually via the club? The announcement via the Australian Facebook page didn't actually use the club's crest - not 100% sure why that would be the case. |

I thought that was odd from a branding perspective and made me think the financial route back to the club might be more convoluted than is being suggested here. |

In fairness, it's just a badge but it was an instant red flag for this tired brain.
Cynically, you think of all the noise fans gave the club for the Karachi project which was in the name of STFC but wasn't really but it is but, really, it isn't....

High or low six figures? |

All monies made go back into STFC yes That's excellent news. Not really expecting to find players, though never say never, but if the cash is coming back to the club I don't care. I look forward to the end of seeing cutbacks and still seeing a 500k loss (or is it a million?) |

Regular as clockwork. You may as well rebrand yourself as TrustClem…. |

Because it is. Enjoy the pod but could do without the knowing cynicism. On payments - it’s not great but name me a company that doesn’t delay payment until the last moment - pretty standard business. |

Any what does ‘dodging the odd local vendor along the way’ actually mean. I suspect shit stirring . If you are saying they are not paying and have no intention to pay and you can back it up then fair enough.
