I've spoken to a club director about this issue this morning, after AA opened up dialogue with me via Twitter DM.

The club are trying to establish exactly what the current situation is, what his motives are and what (if anything) he can offer Chesterfield FC.

He's not doing himself any favours though, tweeting statements/pictures claiming to be CFC's "owner" (even if he declares that's what directors are called in Arab Countries!) then deleting them when challenged.

Glad it's all in the open now so he can either make himself useful to us or clear off.

After sleeping on what this guy has said he's trying to turn us into a "brand" in the Middle East to generate more sponsorship and income to turn us into a global name like "arsenal and Chelsea"

Apparently Cfc are in the news on tv and in the papers each week over in Kuwait.

It would be nice for the club to come out and say what actually is happening with this guy....

...I'm told he's simply going to sell 'global' advertising on the new scoreboards. He thinks he can persuade multi-nationals that advertising at the Proact is a good idea. That's why he has been on telly with our brand. Whether he has contributed to the decision to invest in the new scoreboards and to the forecast of £100k income per annum remains to be seen.

He's neither a Director of the Club by office or by title.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry that it's apparently taken pressure from fans to expose this 'fake Sheikh' character (and by the way, a big well done to 'Freelander' for spotlighting the issue).

Does Dave Allen know owt about it? If not, why not? Exactly how much has it cost our club in terms of foreign trips, phone calls and hospitality?

Either way it seems to be another in a series of embarrassing episodes for our CEO.

I'm now of the opinion that at the very best this bloke is acting as some sort of agent for either investment or sale of the club and wanting his cut.

I think that's it. Whether he's got a pot to **** in himself is another matter altogether.

Yep. It would be a shame if allen was to sell. However, I can understand it if that's what he wants to do but I feel in dave Allen we have someone we can really trust for the foreseeable future.

He obviously has sustainable business at heart. I'd love nothing more than dave Allen to see his investement returned and him get huge dividends.

I do hope our future remains with Allen at large.im not sure I'd want us to become some others play thing.

He played for LA Galaxy you know. And he's very close to the famous Sir Tony Carver. You must know who he is.
