I wouldn’t back anything this lot put forward.
Lack of trust and incompetence in equal measures.
The day the lot of them piss off will be a day of mass celebration.

I see even my local team Yeovil have a new Dubai based owner now. Why the hell are we not an attractive proposition to buyers like this?
We have a fanbase about 5 or 10 times the size of Yeovil, a division higher, a capacity already double the size of Huish Park, more than double the average home attendance, more history, better positioning geographically...the list goes on.

From the station at Colchester

From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

I suspect it is about what someone wants to sell for and for that person willing to listen to offers. I don't believe nobody has looked at stfc, probably use a 3rd party to see if Clem is willing to sell and get told he has no interest in selling up |

We are, but our ownership group are either asking too much for the club, or are expecting someone to front up a big chunk of cash without allowing someone to see the books and complete proper due diligence. It’s a bit like expecting someone to make a bid on your house without telling them how much or letting them view the property in advance. |

In our case, the house would be 25 Cromwell Street |

They only killed 12. Childs play in the world of the Irish mob and the company some of our lot keep. |

There's absolutely no way that there hasn't been interest in us in the past few years. |

It looks like the club don’t want to fill the Townend very often  |

Presumably still £2 more. Seems standard practice in a lot of clubs. Can't really see the advantage in a club doing this |
