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.

Sounds like bollocks, he could prove it if its true... show us the correspondence.

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

I don't believe it's like some loan shark style loan where you are given an unrealistically short period of time to settle it or you lose your knee caps.

Same! I wonder if the short timeframe is 'true' in Clems head but under the guise that the debt needed settling in a short time frame to meet the requirements for the imminent stadium purchase, rather than Power turning up with the baseball bat.

Whelan says Morfuni hasn’t spoken to him so he’s even made that up.

I'm confused (doesn't take much)

I can see LSPOD has taken snippets and put them on twitter. But where's the full thing? and who interviewed/spoke to him?

Clem Mofuni..  I hope you are right

"We got rid of the debt. The previous owners bought a debenture for a million quid.” He said the previous owners than “put a statutory demand on the club to pay the 2.95 million pounds. We had three days to pay it or the club would be put in liquidation. I had half the money and borrowed the rest so the club would be saved.”"

So the sold shares were only 1.5 million or so, is that news for people? Would mean 20% at 1.5 million so club value = 7.5 million or am I missing something?

Nothing makes any sense.

There's not enough cash flow to pay staff, 50% off shirts yet we are happy to fly kids over to England for something that is 99.9% going to be a waste of time.

Unless it's being sponsored by somebody.
