It's been referenced in other threads that Paul Nicholls of Elite Management Agency arranged a lot of January signings. Down a rabbit hole tonight but guess who acquired First Touch Pro Management from Michael Standing when he ceased control of it in light of the Power case?
And here is a perfectly legal way that people can make money from an ultiamtely loss making business. Elite and First Touch both turned profits in 2022/23, about 300k and 150k each. During that same period, STFC lost money (save for the ground transaction). Cash <> Profit. In this instance, it could be possible for STFC to have received monies from trading, used that money to pay for services provided by both agencies and paid their bills to them on time. In the meantime, they don't pay other debts at all, or delay them - essentially moving the incoming cash out to the people they want to pay, building debt for the remainder. Loss making, but cash generating for the flow through business. I am not saying we are doing that, BUT, we could. Eventually, you probably run out of rope with the creditors, but for a while, people can make real cash from a loss making business. Of course, there remains the far less legal options for a loss making business to actually be profitable for people. |

What could you possibly be saying RobT? This is an open and transparent club... both Clem and ''Fair Game'' say so   |

Would make sense for over stating crowds, especially if you claim the extra tickets were paid for with cash. |

What would be the benefit of STFC folding?
Just to be clear, and my post was an attempt at parody, but I don't believe Clem is trying to fold the club. I, along with many others, have no idea what his game is, but he just doesn't seem to be very good at it. And that is what I was trying to convey. If I had used Go for Broke rather than Kerplunk, that may have raised eyebrows. |

Don’t think he got released, pretty sure he’s been transfer listed. |

I did ask Grim Reaper where the 1000 tickets sold figure was from, does anybody know for sure and from where the answer is?

Sam M in his (very good) Ink newsletter says fewer than 1000. The club haven't officially said anything, other than that they are down. 3500 was this time last year. Separately, from the Adver on Brennan: There had been a suggestion that the approach for Brennan would also involve him being the assistant head coach, although the Adver understands that this was not the case. |
