I bet Adam Hart is one sticking his beak in as well. Trains boxers so probably fancies himself as knowing football.

Why else would he be at the fans forum?!

One thing is for sure - we now have a spark, out of the slumber of this season.
For any of this to be productive, we need a buyer out in the open. I can’t see Morfuni going without severe pressure.

My gut is that Clem will go into "circle the wagons" mode over all of this, similar to the Reading owner and Blackpool before that. My feeling is that things will get a lot worse before Clem is convinced to do anything significantly different to how he has acted ove the past 12 months or so.
The big questions are, where will the club sit when that happens and will the club be beyond repair by that point. At least things are finally at a head, but i still think we are a way off from this boil of a club being actually being popped.

That would be typical of the gutless twat. Tell the fucking truth mate, sell up and get the hell out of Dodge and take ALL your scummy mates with you.

Well, we know where we're goin' But we don't know where we've been And we know what we're knowin' But we can't say what we've seen And we're not little children And we know what we want And the future is certain Give us time to work it out

Say worst case scenario. Clem ignores everything and carries on, last year £1m loss with 4.5k season ticket holders and 3rd highest crowd in the league.
What happens next season with 1k season ticket holders, reduced hospitality and sponsorship and attendances down, surely the playing budget can't go too much lower and we have trimmed all the staff we can. So what happens? More millions to plug the gap out of spite whilst the club valuation continues to drop? It is not in his financial interest (or whoever is funding) to carry on surely?
I think the more pressing issue would be is it even possible to get a new owner, carry out due diligence and build a new squad with management in one summer? The clock is ticking.
I guess we look back at the previous years when we had no players, presumed relegation and a fighting fan mentality and it almost got us to the playoffs.

My prediction is Clem will bury his head in the sand for a bit and then try to sell to someone connected with Chris Keily / Adam Hart / Michael Standing / Zav Austin mob of gangsters, crooks, gypsies, tramps and thieves. It'll be down to The Trust to see if they can do anything about this knowing other parties are in the background.
We'll continue on a downward spiral. Relegation likely.

Unless there's actual stock in the heavily-rumoured discussions of a potential sale?

Am I right in thinking that if Clem turn his loans into equity, he'd be able to dilute Kiely and Parladorio's shareholdings?

https://www.swindontownfc.co.uk/news/2024/may/an-update-from-clem-morfuniClub statement, get the popcorn! Edit: oh, it's a really dull holding statement. We're reviewing everything, and will tell you about it later, probably.

No season ticket push? I wonder what they don't agree with?
