That’s a good pun, that.

Positive news again, assuming no hiccups

When I saw that pic, I thought it was Paolo.

Good news on the face of it. Certainly will have done his due diligence with being on the scene for a couple of years, so one would assume he wouldn't be interested if we looked like a dead duck.

I suppose many fans will jump on the ‘£700,000 for players’ comment.

Anyway, any warm and fuzzy feeling will soon be tempered by Reg.

2 and 2 together and all that. The funding is probably why RW is waiting on a couple of strikers and not jumping in.

Especially when you look at 2 of our near neighbours - Rovers and Piss Stains - owned by supposed rich men who either haven’t actually got a pot to piss in or are tighter than a nun’s chuff.

I agree. He's been on the scene for a while, he's put his company on the shirts and he's had some interaction with fans.

All the good signs.

I met him once, seemed a genuinly nice guy.

obviously you can't tell anything about anyone based on 30 minutes. Better than coming across as a twat though

Wasn’t one of his initial gambits about opening a pathway for young Aussie players to get into English football?

There’s some detail in there. 1. The club won’t comment - why not? It suggests Clem has spoken out of turn without their agreement. Why has he felt the need to talk about this before the club was prepared to if they are as joined up as he suggests? 2. He claims to have invested in return for a 15% share. He claims to have invested? Or claims to have agreed that the investment was in return for a share? Why isn’t that certain? He’s either got a bought shares or he hasn’t. Has Power not learned? I’ve got Jed-ja-vu. And why does he want a 15% share in a loss making business with no dividend? Protection of his investment so there’s a return in the event of a future sale? Who knows. We’ve seen this all before. I also thought it was Paolo at first glance making a return as youth team coach.

I'd normally age with you and and extra cynicism!

in this case I'd say wait and see. let's hope this isn't a bill power type stitch up from Power II.
