This looks like it's gone quite a long way down the road, with meetings between May and the City Council. To get the impression he was just an adviser is stretching it a bit.
In what was a lengthy and detailed briefing to the Council, May wrote how he and his team wanted to transform the club’s fortunes having claimed that he and members of the group had been historically successful elsewhere.

He's either lied or hasn't done sufficient due diligence on the people he's talking to. Either way it's a bad look.
Hardy has known about this guys past for a while.
No commitments of any sort were made at the meeting and following due diligence, there are no plans for any further discussions with the individual concerned.
Someone has done due dilligence, it seems, and it wasn't Hardy. I wonder if someone at the council tipped the Mirror off.
That's a good shout I reckon. It's tricky to see how else this sort of information ends up in the press. Is this sort of meeting the kind of thing covered by freedom of information requests? (I wouldn't have thought so but don't know for sure)
So the council are now on record saying they won't work with these people, and while we don't know for sure I'd imagine Haydn Green's trustees are probably of the same opinion? It's hard to see how they can takeover when they're not gonna get their hands on the land (although of course the only thing that'll completely settle the uneasiness is if/when the club cease talks). For all our problems at the moment the set up over the ground does seem to be affording us some protection.
and it was something along the lines of "Lawyer Colin Dodd, who is also part the consortium, told the Daily Mirror at the weekend that May had come clean about his past to everyone involved in the deal and was being used in an advisory capacity." that I thought I had previously read that led me to saying AH know of AK/AM's background and was proceeding regardless.
It always has been known as Alex Mays group that only changed once the Daily Mirror story broke.
Hardy is an arseh*le its obvious he dont give a sh*t about us ...oldest trick in the book change name of the owner so they pass fit and proper test.
Hope Hardy loses the lot got zero time for him he is weak as nats p*ss when we were doing well all over social media/press now he is hide & seek champion.
Leigh Curtis looks to me to have had some part in bringing May down and you can tell in his tweets he dont get on with AH.
