Stephen Cleeve - I bought a Football Club

As for Ker then any role he has will come out soon. May be he will be on the new board with responsibility for media/communication or perhaps he is producing/directing the TV series.

I’m sure there will be other board appointments to help run the club locally.

Personally I’d prefer R&R as owners than Cleeve

Understatement of the year

This! Why would he work for us?

I dont think Cleeve is any any position to query someone's business motives, given his track record. Back in your box, Dracula.

Ker and his wife work with/are friends with Rob McElhenney and his wife. Humphrey Ker is also English and a football fan (Liverpool)

Humphrey Kers wife has 70k Twitter followers. The more people with a large social media footprint using twitter and Instagram etc helps with the clubs exposure. I don't think its anything more than that.

Cleeve is a bitter slime ball shark - he’s better off concentrating on turning Kings Lynn into a global force.

R&R came across at that meeting as very Honest and sincere , they are looking on this as a worthwhile project , and to become a part of our History , Yes there`s a story in this , But the story started a long time ago , long before these two got involved , But they will be a part of this story , and will record it in a TV Docu. and like every fairy tale this will be a happy ending .

He was questioning why Humphrey Ker has not been named up until now. Apparently Humphrey has confirmed he is the 3rd owner on Twitter? He also goes on saying the only reason for the deal to go through is for the documentary, and the plan is a very short one. Maybe 3 years, and within that 3 years Rob, Ryan and Humphrey will get their 2 million back and more from documentary.

Is this a jealous man who once tried to own us, a bit of sour grapes, or does he know somthing we dont?


Didn't Ryan and Rob say they were on here for as long as we would have them? Did they mention that they wernt in this for the money and the club would get the documentary money? Is Humphrey Ker another owner or is he working for Ryan and Rob on the Documentary side?

A few questions that I'm hoping someone on here will have the answers too. Very negative spin on the whole deal from Mr Cleeve to be honest.

Yeah, R & R are so short of money that this seems like a quick and profitable return on their investment

Let's face it, Wrexham is addictive. Once you're in.... there's no leaving..
