A word of appreciation for Clowes, who in complete opposite to Morris, has gone about his ownership in a quiet and unassuming manner, no grand gestures, no wild promises to fans. Who took his time and engaged advice on a strategy for rebuilding the club and getting them out of league 1 and then acted on it and stuck to that strategy even when a significant number of fans were calling for Warne to be sacked.

He has it seems kept from interfering in football matters, taking the view he has employed people to do that and unless progress was widely adrift of the aims, content to give those people the time and space to do their job.

Remember as well that this guy has paid in the region of £55 million to save the club and rebuild it. If anything he should have a statue outside pride Park just for that alone!
