Haha. My focus will be on the CEO and if Clem wants to appear at any point then he'd be welcome.

For what it's worth. I got wind that Morfuni was in the country via the 'Clem Texters' sending cryptic DMs to people because they can't help themselves.

Members of the Trust, including the lads who run the socials, simply did not know that he was coming into the country.

His attendance at Supermarine could have been reliant on the EFL approval coming through etc.

Completely blown out of proportion.

I know some fans like the idea of having the ear of the owner, but these clem texters need to stop, there will be a lot of p'd off fans if this continues as they will inevitably leak anything he tells them like how the name of the new manager was being bandied about before the bookies had even go wind of it, I thought this had been sorted when previously he was recorded talking to fans.

Nothing against anyone who has his number and clem responds but there is a thin line between talking football and leaking private chats and info.

He is now the owner of stfc and things will be different.

This is not the first time I've heard the fans that have his number bigging themselves up (or some of them, I think there are a few).

Sorry to be a bit negative, it just annoys me a little.

Now back to the celebrations.

Today has been delightful. I wasn’t aware how much genuine stress this whole ownership saga has caused me until it became clear it’s resolved, feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

I’m perfectly happy to give Ben Garner my full support. His time at Rovers was obviously a torrid one, but he is clearly a considered choice and hopefully one that’ll fit right into the philosophy that Clem appears very keen on bringing to the club. By all accounts he’s a very highly considered coach. It goes without saying that the last time we had a ‘highly considered coach’ at the helm it turned out to be a disaster but that was working under a completely different regime, so I won’t be comparing the two going forward.

Happy happy happy

All positive stuff so far. I've spangled a bit too much money this month on booze, powder and fanny. Reckon clem could shout me a few 100 notes to help with the rent at the end of the month? I think that would really be the statement of intent that the fans could get behind.

I think you and your dealer might have to come to an arrangement this month. I expect that SBC and the rent on the CG might take precedence before your rent gets a consideration.

Win lose or draw that first game at The County Ground is something i cannot wait for. Turned a bit of a blind eye to everything related to the club in the past few weeks but now feel like Tom Hanks in Castaway at the end where he sits down at the table for a huge feast.

Welcome Clem and co.

Not sure if mentioned but I hope Lee Peacock and Steve Mildenhall still have a role at the club. Maybe more understandable for Mildy as a Swindon lad but Peacs has shown a proper love for this club ever since he left.

Bit of a club legend for me.

Mildenhall is name checked in the press release as staying as goalkeeper coach.

Peacock not mentioned, but no reason to expect he won't go back to his role with the u18s.

The new CEO is a man who many (if not most) Town fans know, he has been introduced to staff already as the new CEO and its a very good appointment IMO, I feel almost every fan will probably be impressed with him.

I won't blow his cover by announcing it ahead the official announcement but have told a couple of people on here and I am sure it will come out before the official announcement tomorrow anyway.

If it's Wray or Fitton someone needs to make sure there is a dual signature required on cheques and contracts.
