What I don't understand is how you can publicly state that you don't want to / or can't afford to continue to fund the club while it's in league 1 and then u turn after you have relegated the club and pissed off the entire fan base.  If power is still in charge next season, who is he expecting through the turnstiles?

I think it's like poker betting, he's so far in  now he's gone all in and hoping for the best.

Yes pretty much this. Something I have alluded to myself. Which also leads onto Able. I doubt very much the trust would wish to enter into a partnership with them to purchase the ground and besides IIRC the council won’t sell to anyone without the trust having a 50% stake in the purchase. So the comment applies to them as well. After all are you going to invest any cash into the club owned by a company rubber stamped by Power? No, me neither. I firmly believe Able is a Trojan/Stalking Horse being used as a crowbar against Standing/Clem/Axis. The noose is getting tighter and as some said earlier (Batch) it is a game of poker now.

If our fearless leader says he can fund the club, why did he go to the EfL for a loan?

More horseshit.

Power being the silent partner behind Able and openly touting this within football circles.
Supporters can do their bit by holding out. I do believe he won’t last much longer now,

If what you say is accurate, then who is he trying to entice/kid in footballing circles to invest in his latest scheme?

Interesting to hear that the trial of Standing's claim has been 'brought forward'.  I queried this in earlier posts.

Oh he can fund the club, just not with his money.

Don't deny that this is true and it would explain why he's so keen to sell to them and them only, but seems such a weird partnership! A widebody race horse owner and Boston real estate magnates. Makes you wonder whats in it for Power to sell to Able...

The trust website says, amongst other things:-

"This hearing will also set an earlier timetable in motion for the Lee Power v Michael Standing trial, which brings forward from a date later in 2022 to an expedited one in late Summer this year."

Gotta love the Loathed Strangers podcast sniggering at the managerial candidates bandied about online (all of which have been suggested on the TEF at various points in time).

I'm out now until he's gone. Might start going to watch my local non-league side until that day; protests notwithstanding

full trial was set June 2022.

the judge recognised that the club wouldn'tb survive that long and agreed to try and bring it forward to September.

there are no guarantees it will be. Or that the  it'll be the same judge (though he'll try)
