    The different approaches speak volumes IMO. Morris came in, the big local fan who was going to revive the glory days, seemingly interfered at every level in the club, spent millions on players achieved relegation.

    Clowes, quiet unassuming, takes action before anything is said, no grand promises, other than to run the club sustainably. Seems to avoid being involved in anything other than what he knows - finance and business, hires people who know football and seem trustworthy, would seem he has got good advisors who he trusts to run the football side.

    I think its an unworthy and totally unproven slur on the good name of a man who saved the club from going out of business!

    Not really sure what evidence there is to back it up, but it seems unlikely in the extreme.

    Ennyhoo, I saw online this morning, someone claiming that Morris still owns the club. Clowes is merely his front man. Allegedly, Mel's and CD's Dads were besties....
    I think that belongs in Trickys Covid Farce thread
