Personally; no I don't believe it would be our place to ask where he got his
money...there are other more concerned and well equipped entities quite
capable of pursuing those avenues if deemed necessary.; however, it would
seem pertinent for us to ask how he got control/ownership of our club,
especially if it were under mysteriously clouded circumstances that stank of
something very nasty.!

It would then continue to be pertinent to fans and supporters to ask what he
was doing with the club, especially if he claimed to have, suddenly incurred
huge amounts of debt in the club name, with nothing to show for it, other
than  unconditional backing from these faceless debtors for whatever
schemes, he wanted to pull, including, but not limited to defrauding the
taxman, in the name of the club and if those actions were in fact impeding
the ability of the team to prepare fully for the upcoming season.

So there you have it. An answer and an end to the tiresome debate, if you so
choose.
