The reason this forum exists is becoming increasingly forgotten. It makes me sad.

It was a good move in my opinion (to discuss impending costs), hopefully calms the more intelligent members of the Wilson / board-out thisis brigade with a touch of realism - that running a football club costs money outside of the buying and selling of players and that anyone after a £250k+ replacement signing next week needs to have a word with themselves.
And Dave - calling a stranger on an internet forum names at 10am on a Sunday morning? Really? Heavy night?

It's needless scaremongering though isn't it, the likes of which have been plaguing this forum like aids over the past few weeks.

Having listened to the interview the following is clear:
Diamandis won the initial court hearing at or about the tiome of the play off final. If you remember AF was angry then. The club appealed because the decision was plain wrong. AF said the saying the Law is an ass would be right if it went against the clb tomorrow. It wasn't the money it was the principle. He never mentioned an amount on air.
My guess is that Diamandis is claiming wages / fees for when he was "General Manager" . If you remember he was boasting in the dark days about how he was giving "his services" for free. (Although we assume he never actually lost out & made money out of the club in other ways)
If my guess is any where near right I'd have thought that when the takeover happened any "Fees" owing to the fat Barsteward would have had to have been declared under due dilligence.
Diamandis as ever is trying to screw people for all he can.
For what it's worth my take on AF's comments were that he was rightly angry, but his comments were tongue in cheek.
Another reminder tho' that we have come a long way since those days. We wouldn't he talking about the club at all if those fuckwits had stayed on cos we'd have gone under.
The other thing to bear in mind is that even tho we have decent people in charge now, that may not always be the case.

Is this related to one of the old holding companies that Diamandis or one of his cronies sat on? If memory serves and it probably doesn’t, wasn’t Diamandis providing “marketing” services to the club.
Just speculation is the 300k bill for “services” rendered?

That was the Bill Power case, where he was apparently in a 'critical condition' in a hospital in Cyprus, when he should've been giving evidence at the High Court.

Because he felt more welcome as a Greek in the Turkish-speaking part of Cyprus than in Wiltshire? Life has got tough for him.
