Chris Kiely shares being paid off in the 'next couple of weeks'... followed by some caveat about the January window.

I think it’s very obvious that he still feels like he shouldn’t be questioned because ‘he’s saved the club’ and he isn’t enjoying the fact he’s getting it in the neck.

However - as amusing as I’ve actually found this, with the swearing etc, for someone who owns the club the amount of times he says ‘he doesn’t know, I will have to check’ etc is alarming.

As Aud said, he comes across as someone that’s winging it, the answers are out of his mouth before the question has been finished and they’re whatever suits the narrative at that time.

[Mooneyraker]

I wonder who the "two people at Swindon" are who he asked for the money to clear the debenture?

I guarantee he’s saying things now that will be contradicted in the future.

Oh, the bookies have already paid out on that.

You don't machine gun answers from the hip like this without setting traps for yourself.

[Jimmy HaveHave]

He's having to apologise too much!

I think this is half of his issue, he’s so desperate to get the fans off his back he’s just saying what he thinks we want to hear.

I really don’t think he’s ‘dodgy’ as such, but he just isn’t thinking - he’s on the defensive and he’s setting himself up for more shit.

[Mooneyraker]

I think this needs to end now. For everyone's sake.

I honestly don’t think he does actually know what’s going on. It sounds like someone who has little to no knowledge or interest in the nitty gritty of running a football club. What we need to know is - who is

[Ides of March]

Some good suggestions from Clem tbf. Didn’t consider putting a roof on the Town End before

Some guy who has run a liquidated plumbing business for Clem and has literally no CEO or football experience?

This whole Clem/Eady Trust/Trust STFC "I gifted the fans the money" point needs unpacking in detail. It was a pretty extraordinary and ill judged comment.

I can see what he was getting at, but the wording left a lot to be desired.

[The Artist Formerly Known as Audrey]

Again, that was probably not what he meant. He just can’t think on his feet - stuff just spills out.

Can’t condemn the fella if he’s not articulate under pressure.

Agreed, it wasn't his to gift (albeit it was the football clubs & he is the owner of it)
