CLEEVE STAYS

Maybe when Cleeve gets some of this money he will pay for the dressing room refurbishment which was done at the start of last season

kenny r · May 20, 2025, 05:37:50 PM

Allegedly IF the grant to repair the stand floor ever materialises he has said he will pay that account.

All should be well.

He is a man of his word after all.

Are there a few unpaid invoices floating around ? It seemed the Club wasn't the quickest of payers but surely not stuff that is 12 months over due ?

In his head he has already sold 2000 season tickets and has an amazing F.A Cup run in the bag plus another 700k from his Singapore investment buddies who just love throwing money into his hobby and never want anything in return.

Fools and their money springs to mind!

Whatever sort of business people would allow this to happen is beyond me!

Have to think it must be very easy to earn lots of money in Singapore.

Was it not SC who thought the Fit & Proper Owners test was lacking & should look at the motives for owning a club, not just the bank balance of the owner. It's a Fair Game.

Ken

What's the connection between paying for changing room refurbishment and obtaining a grant for the stand floor (yet more taxpayers money no doubt)?

Any idea why a local Tradesman should be made to wait for payment depending on the outcome of yet another grant application?

kenny r · May 20, 2025, 06:34:20 PM

B and G, there is no connection, other than in his mind.

Its just another example of robbing Peter to pay Paul.

Mallard · May 20, 2025, 06:51:52 PM

Don't think anyone gets robbed Kenny. Then again it also appears people don't get paid.

Be interesting to see if the new people Ckeeve has got involved will be taking equity in the Club or will be in the form of yet another loan ? Or it could be a sponsorship deal. All will be revealed. Hopefully.

Who remembers Gibraltor or Concerts at the Walks with AC/DC or any of the various things that were destined to turn the Clubs fortunes around.

On the morning of the Scunthorpe game the Club had to go cap in hand to the Lord Napier to " borrow three barrels of beer " as I presume there was insufficient at the ground for the seasons biggest crowd. Club on stop ?

Quinn Upstone · May 20, 2025, 07:12:51 PM

Now I'm not often lost for words.........but this farce playing out around our beloved club would never be believed as a storyline in a soap 😏 And that's saying something.

It's just a lot of static making no sense at all 🤫

I grasp at one straw only to see it disappear in my hand. When the next straw comes towards me I try to get a better grip, but without success.

I have little hope left in Cleeve and his alternate universe and have come to the realisation that he believes everything he says to be true.

It's the only logical conclusion I can come to.

The almost deal between TSI etc. and the Trust gave me the hope of a new beginning. And now I don't know what to think.

There's unlikely to be anyone else out there who's prepared to put in the time and money that Jo has put in. Especially if that money has been squandered and probably lost.

Once again I fear for our club 😔

I hope they asked for cash in hand before parting with the barrels.

What a mess, another year to come with supporters uncertain of the future of the club.
Will the dark reaper finally come at the end of next season?
KLTFC must be getting a poor reputation and becoming a poisoned chalice for employing and treating staff.
Will Cleeve ever run out of backers? Will the club fold to rise again as a Phoenix club?

Are there any fans who actually want Mr Cleeve still at the club. If not, then why not just boycott all games and let him get in with it. Action speaks louder than words as they say.
This forum only represents a small percentage of Lynn fans, but if the views on here are more widespread, why would SC hang around, assuming that he is aware of the general feeling towards him.

This forum doesn't represent the supporters, a small proportion or otherwise.

It just allows supporters to post their views and opinions etc to fellow supporters.
