How much do we reckon some team in Ireland is valued at
They don't own their own ground, thats owned by the council, similar to us so he has no assets there, any assets would be players/staff so I doubt it would be any more than a couple of hundred grand TBH. That is unless he has racked up debts there in the same way he has at Swindon which would mean any deal would pay off the debts much like the Able deal and leave a little on top for Power to take away. Waterford have been struggling financially during lockdown and that was the main reason behind Sheedy and Newell leaving due to very very late payment of wages apparently. |

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

Whilst Alan Reynolds (the manager under whom they were successful) left due to a lack of communication and commitment from the owner, combined with the above it all sounds very familiar! |

It begs the question why Power would want so many headaches in his life

There are actually 4 companies of that name, albeit 3 have been dissolved, none of which have any directors matching the name given in the press release!
There is a company called R & S Forrest Holdings Limited, based in Essex, owned by a Richard Forrest and his wife. Could be them. £6m turnover, small profits. |

Looks like the kiddy, albeit its quite the leap to go from owning children's nursery's (which are very lucrative) to owning a football club! |

This was a quote taken out of context. Remember it originally came from a local news article on owners wealth's and I questioned the journalist where the figure came from as it seemed high and it was from an article in the Irish press with Power about Waterford and he said if he was a player in the modern game he'd be worth £45mn. |

I am sure there will be a perfectly reasonable explanation from our Lee. These things happen all the time. I am forever losing track of what I have taken money out of an account for  |
