The Spirit of '69 and our Day of Action

[Nemo]

a drab railway town two hours’ drive west of London, where there is little else to do but follow the fortunes of the cherished local soccer team.

Clearly the Sydney Morning Herald is not aware of the Steam museum!

It's standard stuff, just written a bit more sympathetically to the Australian. The complete lack of any reflection is normal now, but how you can write "Swindon Town has been trapped in a grim downward spiral, churning through players and coaches at an alarming rate" and not... consider who the one constant in that time is is remarkable.

Didn't know Clem had a Spurs ST though. Can't imagine he uses that much.

Build a statue of him?! Only effigy of him we’d build is scarecrow version to throw on a bonfire. Every word that comes out of his mouth just reaffirms the type of character he really is!

So disrespectful to the club's history. Build a statue for a chairman who gets us up to the Prem maybe, not promoted from fucking League 2. Pathetic

I sometimes think people take the mutterings of Calamity Morfuni too seriously.

He's an Antipodean builder for fuck sake- everything is a joke to him.

[Frigby Daser]

If ever you wanted a quote to sum up the complete disdain this man has for the fans - it is this:

“If next season, we stay up we get promoted ... mate, they’ll build a statue,” Morfuni says.

No Mr Morfuni, we won’t. You’d be lucky to get a dog shit bin named after you.

What an arrogant wanker. Wonder if this is a bit of a slip too?

Noticed in early articles he talks very differently to the Aussie media.

Arrogant wanker.

Re Nemo’s comment about the Tottenham ST
I remember reading somewhere that Axis were one of the services contractors in the new Spurs stadium construction - hence that was the link.

That in turn was why I assumed he got involved with Swindon - stadium redevelopment was a way he could make money through his Axis business. More difficult now the UK arm has wound up however…

Wonder if its a paid for season ticket or a free one?

Cant be having free ones you know.

What an utter twat, he just doesn't get it, never will.

Even more difficult now considering that his JV partner have publicly come out and said they don't want him here at all. Considering the massive CoI his contracting firm doing the work would have created I was always somewhat surprised that people thought the Trust would just let him get on with it and it would be his big cash bonus for owning this shit show.

Saved? 
So what do you call what you are doing to this club now numbnuts?

[iParadise]

well Power got us promoted with a league winning side and we haven't built a statue after him

I think that is amongst his most damaging interviews. I hope the Adver re-print that. He is so unbelievably ignorant when it comes to comms and PR.

There’s an undercurrent of him talking to an Aussie who gets him, unlike the dopey Swindon fans on the other side of the world, who would be so fickle as to build a statue if there was a promotion.

You started with a clean slate, which is why you were once popular Mr Morfuni. As soon as people saw what you actually had to deliver - a complete vacuum of ability, meandering and incoherent rhetoric, and a difficult relationship with the truth - your reputation started to align with your character.

But they won't will they, see also their complete radio silence about the past of those close to the supreme leader.
