I e-mailed the Trust, after signing-up to the Share scheme, that they should present the Carlisle example to Clem and get him on public record to agree to do the same, or not. Either way we would know if he had any interest in backing up the claims.
Not had a response, that was late September.
We have now had links to other examples, where clubs have provided very detailed summaries of their financial performance, including details on transfer incomes, sources of Revenue etc. Nobody is expecting them to show company names and contracts, but detailed analysis is possible, as is a forward looking forecast.

Right, but it could be other contacts like puma shirts or, um, I dunno
Again, known about when he took over and limited in length. Everyone who buys a business is limited by the agreements in place prior to purchase. Just fucking get on with it. 26 months after purchase, those contracts are not the direct cause of running out of money before month end in October 2023.

I'll ask again, what are people getting for their membership/voting share money at the moment? How many 'votes' have share holders participated in since March? Have you fed back in 'regular surveys'?

As an example of what I mean.
Puma deal - tied up for a few years, diddums, so would every other new owner of a football club be.
However, we have over a hundred years of history to leverage for marketing purposes. When I was back in the UK in the summer, I visited a few Premier League grounds (son wanted to see a few of them) and all of them had a range of retro shirts available for purchase. Slightly lower cost than the official ones. Where are the STFC ones? Can't make enough off of the current kits, flog some old style ones (replica, not actual) for a few quid less, and the plus side is you can sell them next year as well, and the year after. The 1969 top for example, the 92/93 one. Some of the classics.
I know it's not as simple as posting that and making money, but there really is no obvious effort to do much new at the club, bar a crazy amount of sponsorship deals, which seem to be in lieu of services most of the time. Stop whining about what you were handed (decided to take on, not forced to) and get moving on new strategies. So far, very little has really changed. The only thing that did was because the Trust pushed it and Eady paid for it.

https://www.stfcdirect.com/christmas/christmas/christmas/I mean, if that doesn't suggest club in a mess, what does? I'm taking all this as read by the way, as a distant fan who cannot see what is in the shop. The online offering is poor, and seemingly all on fire sale.

Surely someone within the club can proof read an article before it is posted
Batch could offer his services for that or maybe he already has.  Voluntary basis only of course.
