Not posted on here for years, but here we go. Oh dear Mr Cleeve. Having read his recent rants on X, they are so similar to many of his rants in programme notes, EDP column etc. Distraction tactics. Find a reason to criticise and blame others and avoid the most important issue. One important topic missing from his most recent rants, the current financial situation at the club. Who is to blame for this? After all, he alone has been overseeing the financial and operational “ management” at the football club. He has announced publicly that he can no longer fund the club. He has had £450,000 DCMS loan, £50,000 Government bounce back loan, all of the monies from sponsorship and hospitality etc and of course takings at the turnstiles and season ticket sales. On top of this, the TSI statement alludes to over £700,000 injected by Joe Phua. Where has it all gone. Have to ask why after all of this, the club has been losing £300,00 season on season. TSI have made it clear that they would wish to take over at the helm and work with not just The Trust, but with the fan base and local community. Mr Cleeve, if you have any respect for the club and fans, and if you have an ounce of self respect, it’s time to hand over the reins. As the old saying goes, gather up the sheep and get the flock out of here.
