Questions I want Pearson to answer urgently:
Has the club paid off the COVID loan? If not what deferred payment plan was put in place?
When are the club expecting to agree a new lease for the stadium?
If the club has received new investment, has the investor taken a share of the club or are they buying all the club?
I'd like some real answers before throwing more money down the drain.
I might be able to help a bit I asked him about the covid loan at a Reserve game a few weeks ago and he said it had be paid off last March but it was all a bit vague and whether that's right I have no idea.
As for the the lease its a fifty year one reviewed after 25 years so that means its up for review and renewal in 2027 and I'm told we are talking with the SMC (who manage it) regularly but they are reluctant to sort anything until nearer the time because of essential work at the stadium that has to be assessed costed and carried out.
As for the investor well that's the million dollar question and no one but no one seems to know anything or are willing to even discuss it and quite frankly if it were me investing and I don't know about you, but looking at today I would be thinking twice about getting involved at all as its looking more and more like a real poison chalice and dare I say a lost cause.
