Of course it won’t vouch for the club’s statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Adam Morallee worked his way up to a partner at Mischon de Reya. And I'd never underestimate what is took to do that. Nor taking Microsoft and BMW with him, and business worth 600k in the first year. But we've yet to see the skills that took him there so far IMHO.

They have a director on the board of OAFC what they are saying is that 1 director can't say with any certainty that the 2 others are telling the truth.

Simply that we haven’t seen the documentation which the contents of the letter draw from. There no suggestion that the club is not telling the truth at all. We welcome that the club is seemingly trying to delve deep to understand the history of the how the OEC came to be and the club’s legal rights and position in all this. That is expressed in the letter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is expressed in the letter. Sensible position - it sounds as if the "audit trail" of documentation may have been misplaced somewhere along the way. It makes sense to unravel everything and then see where things stand. Pity it's taken so long but sounds as though some discipline is finally being put in place.

For the avoidance of doubt, we understand the club’s desire to protect its commercial interest and don’t have an issue with it taking steps to do so.

Hence they stopped paying when they realised they’re dealing with less than honest parties. The FLG then publicised that the club doesn’t pay rent. Hence this clarification is importance to put the FLG’s public statements over the past couple of months into perspective. Are you you going to suggest we accept the conman was too clever and the victim of the con was gullible so they must now sit down and be nice to the conmen?

jorvik_latic Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I love these new accounts that are so pro AL. Especially the ones that are random normal names with numbers thrown in.

Excellent observation, well done. No comment on the attempts to swindle the club out of £100k per year then? Shall we we move on? Has the Trust seen the accounts? Yes. But no comments required. Abdallah out. Happy? Problem is, you don’t have anyone waiting in the wings to “save” the club. The FLG don’t have the competence to run a horse successfully (weren’t a few of them part of the same failing club?), let alone take over a football club. maybe you should look into the issues raised and serious concerns about trying to defraud the club a little more than the twitter handles of information sources. I am am glad this important letter has been leaked. FLG has been playing a one sided game on twitter, now they have to respond to the points raised.
