Morfuni investing heavily in STFC

[Legends-Lounge]

Beginnings of Powers exit strategy.

My thoughts too. I’d go further to suggest it will be in increments. Promoted to League 1 extra % promoted to championship extra % then a full buyout, just my musings. Then there is the trust element to factor in regarding their/our share of the stadium and subsequent development costs. Still all citing stuff and adds to the theatre of being a town fan.

There’s some detail in there. 1. The club won’t comment - why not? It suggests Clem has spoken out of turn without their agreement. Why has he felt the need to talk about this before the club was prepared to if they are as joined up as he suggests? 2. He claims to have invested in return for a 15% share. He claims to have invested? Or claims to have agreed that the investment was in return for a share? Why isn’t that certain?

That worries me too, the whole piece reads like he's staking a claim in public to something that's under dispute. The digs at Power about fan engagement are odd as well, looks like he's pitching for backing from fans. I hope I'm wrong and it's just the article is pitched a bit oddly. Wouldn't be the first time from the Adver.

It was mentioned about a week ago or so ago by one of the adver journos that they were sitting on something. My guess is that this is it.

No coincidence his initial investment of £1.1m is exactly 50% of the purchase price of the CG...

[Reg Smeeton]

I suppose many fans will jump on the ‘£700,000 for players’ comment.

Anyway, any warm and fuzzy feeling will soon be tempered by Reg.

We kind of knew most of this anyway, apart from the bit about making things more formal with a share certificate. 

Here as Frigby and PaulD have pointed out, we could be seeing a problem, with Power cutting up rough.

Hopefully not the case.

That the likes of Batch thinks that Clem seems a straight arrow, is reassuring.

[REDBUCK]

Well I suppose there had to be something to upset the so far smooth pre season.

[The Artist Formerly Known as Audrey]

Yeah. Nothing worse than someone investing in our club.

To be fair I only met him briefly once. He just made a good first impression, I'm told that impression was also made (over a longer period) to the fans group I was with (GW Reds).

[Flashheart]

Yeah. Nothing worse than someone investing in our club.

Really thrown a spanner in the works.

[The Artist Formerly Known as Audrey]

I bet the fucker is going to use some of that money in a decent striker, too.

How very dare he!

Personally I've always gone on first impressions as being fairly reliable.... don't worry, if Morfuni turns into Diamond Mike II, I won't hold it against you. 

[Flashheart]

Morfuni out.

Maybe he IS Diamond Mike. In a Paolo (sic) mask. And he would have got away with it too if it wasn't for us meddling (near) OAPs.

[Peter Venkman]

Yeah. Nothing worse than someone investing in our club.

exactly, I wouldn't say this will disrupt anything, quite the opposite.
