Clive basically repeating the questions from the first Journalist

Very complimentary of MR and Adi. Also of Fraser Group and how they operate. Top of his list is to get the rental agreement extended. Pressed on the ‘new stadium’ on a couple of occasions. Was apparently down there this morning and a lot of work has gone into that project to date. Wouldn’t elaborate if it will come to fruition.

Mid table challenging play-offs, keeping squad intact.

Turner on now.. this should be good. No debt into the club ‘from the date of takeover’. Re-capatilised.

Is £25m bid for the stadium available for use into the football club following unsuccessful bid… here for long term, needs to prioritize and focus. Mentions infrastructure, training ground

Not at all inspirational. He has discovered that the University of Warwick has lots of students. Top ballet facilities incoming.
