As a lurker, I have been reading the threads over the past week's to keep up to date. Thanks to all btw.
I hope the EFL statement is a sign of imminent change. Things have changed here at home and getting to the cultural home of English football every game is probably no longer possible. But I am desperate to show my support when change comes so will get a season ticket anyway. Gonna get home and away tops too!! Will then be happily skint.

"In light of this TrustSTFC urge the EFL to approve this full ownership approval from Mr Morfuni straight away to ensure the sale can proceed as quickly as possible. TrustSTFC have previously completed significant due diligence on Clem Morfuni and the Axis Group and expect no issues as part of this full application."
Without coming over all JBZ, I did wonder whether the EFL give a shit or not whether the Swindon Town Trust have done due diligence on Clem and Axis or not?
I read it to mean that since the Trust have done due diligence that they aren't expecting any hold ups. Not that the Trust are suggesting the EFL take their word for it  |

Obviously i'm not familiar with these processes, but does EFL approval take long?
Why had this not been completed already, or is this a sign that we're at the final stages?

Apart from being a cunt, which he's clearly a natural at, I've seen him on sky news and newsnight talking about middle East issues.
I'm sure he's not losing any sleep over the total mess he left us in.
You are a good judge of character. |

Something like that.

Of course you would say that! Just kidding, as always appreciate the communication. It's tough for fans during this time and the snippets the Trust provide is always good to calm the nerves when it appears there isn't a lot going on! |

You got to admit this comment from the EFL statement is pretty damning of Power and one of its member clubs :
“As it stands, the EFL powers are limited to those as set out in its rulebook and it does not have any right to step in or take control of Club operations in situations such as this with Clubs having rejected the opportunity to explore this further as part of the Owners’ Conduct review in 2017/18.”

I take it as he is over 8 of the 10 hurdles already having already passed the Directors F&P Test and already providing proof of funds in a UK bank account - just got to jump those last few hurdles and hopefully we are good to go.. |

It did come across a little JBZesque. You're a much better/nicer bloke when you're not  |

Gotta love bamboo.
I would be interested to know what the trust regards as due diligence in these circumstances and how this compares with the due diligence that might be undertaken by the EFL.
