No word of a lie, Clem could announce that Pablo Escobar is the real owner but if he stumps up for Kemp and Young no one will care anymore!

Well yes, see Newcastle/Man City/Chelsea for further details of how far football fans' ownership concerns usually go! |

Doesn't Adam Hart fancy himself as Britain's answer to PE anyway? |

Haven't checked but wouldn't be surprised if there was a fringe element saying that it was better under the Oystons!

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

I don't think many judged clem as such like that they would just like the club to be a bit more upfront and tell who is doing what and why

Yep - the issue for me isn't that Clem hasn't got much money, it's the cloak and dagger involvement of people (Kiely, Austin etc) who if we'd been informed were fully involved from the start then we'd be much more on board with.... |

Taking it one step further, it arguably isn't even that people are secretly involved... It is that they banged on about being open and transparent until they were blue in the face, so they have essentially created a massive rod for their own back. I don't remember anyone being interested about Fitton/Arbib/Black and who had invested what and when (it probably helped that they weren't formerly career criminals) but the difference is that they hadn't ridden into Town on the Trust's white horse claiming that they were "the Messiah" who would be held to the highest standard in terms of transparency. |

I am pretty sure thats the same for 90% of us fans. We all know Clem isnt wealthy in football club ownership terms, in fact hes probably closer to the lower end of wealthy club owners. I dont mind him getting in other outside investors, far from it, the more the merrier, if it funds spending on the gound/team then its worth it. Just dont hide it and blatantly lie saying you are the only owner when its pretty obvious you arent. But dont bloody hide it from everyone, come out and say "running a club is way more expensive than I ever thought it would be" "I have taken the club as far as I can without added investment" that sort of thing, everyone would be happy to have new investment if it aids the club and doesnt just line the pockets of individuals. |

Hadn’t Clem always said that he wouldn’t take money out of the club (like Power did) and that we have to be run in a sustainable way, hence why they’ve tried to increase revenue as much as possible.
If you read between the lines there it’s clear he doesn’t have unlimited funds to pump into the club.
The issue that has people’s radar twitching is the fact that he was less than honest about the shares, and I’d say it’s very hard to win trust, but much easier to lose it
