Being discussed on Kieran Maguires ‘Price of Football’ podcast tomorrow.
Should be an interesting listen
Nothing we didn’t already know, just gives a timeline of recent events (and appears to get confused at the end suggesting he doesn’t know why Power would want to get back involved) |

Good that this is getting coverage but unless you are in the weeds like us it is always going to be a 'Wikipedia rundown' of events. Wasn't expecting revelations.

At least they've gone from 'it could be worse, it could be Southend' to 'the slight rustle of red flags'.

Could you imagine it if Power reappeared! |

Given the post Andrew Black story arc, yes I absolutely can imagine it. I can also imagine the Trust response: "Lee Power has assured us he is a changed man. On that basis we have given him access to the Trust funds to be placed on Curran's Delight, running in the 1245 at Towcester. We look forward to the dawn of our new relationship as critical friends. We would also like to welcome his new investors, The Gambino Family. We have done extensive due diligence on them. They have identified an exciting partnership with a Football Club in Micronesia. More updates to follow!" |

TBF we're all crying out for someone with footballing knowhow to run the club. Power has run a club or two before  |

Clem's charm offensive was very impressive from the off and there's a 'not average' fan who can take a lot of credit for that. They still work busily behind-the-scenes to fly the flag for the ownership. They keep a very low profile which has made their impact so significant with PR and keeping the fans sweet.
Rich, is the identity of Morfuni's PR man to remain a mystery for now? |

He's absolutely delusional. The swearing is embarrassing. Imagine Seton Wills behaving like this?! And, as expected, he's losing money on the Women's Team. "The women’s team was still not a viable economic proposition, he said, not having cracked 1000 people through the turnstiles." Insane that he took that on but hey, it pleased some people on social media. |

His comments in that are absolutely tragic, does he think a bit of swearing and some implied threats are going to convince us everything is dandy? |

His comments suggest he spoke with Whelan to refute the claims, yet he never responded to Whelans right to reply messages before the article was published. If he had done that in the first place he could have prevented the article from being published....

Is the debenture bit totally accurate? I have no real idea how they work but the 3 days or the club gets liquidated seems both dramatic and far-fetched? Happy to be educated.
Also didn't he previously say he'd borrowed all of the money to pay it off? Here he says it's just half.

‘Mate, one, I’m not selling the club. Get that out of your head. Two, I’m putting money into it. If you’ve got a problem, I’ll see you face to face and we’ll have a chat about it. If I’m doing something wrong. Fine. But if I’m doing it right, I’m going to come and have a swing at you. I’ll tell you that now. I won’t put up with bullshit. That’s how I am.  Imagine the platinum heavies will need a ring of steel around him if he does show his face at xmas.

None the wiser myself, but recall Rich mentioning on a previous LSpod that people he knows within the industry find the 3 day story to be far-fetched |
