I think because Kiely is a part shareholder, the value that Clem “sells” his shares to someone for will also be offered to Kiely with Kiely getting first dibs. So Clem can’t get out cheaply as then it hands all power over to Kiely. It’s basically how Clem stung Lee Power
I think it depends what is written in the Article of Association. I'd be surprised if the same clause is in there given what happened before, although that was something of a unique situation with Power trying to pull a fast one.
I feel this is partly the reason why Clem is valuing the club way higher than it's truly worth. Try and out-price Kielys affordability.
More likely he thinks he deserves some profit for his time, beyond what he's put into the club. People do this all the time when trying to sell businesses, before the hard reality that is doesn't work like that hits them. A huge reduction is revenue might force this kind of re-evaluation.
