I confirm that I have withdrawn all offers of financial support for ASFC.

I made this decision with a very heavy heart, and after a great deal of consideration.

The club and its directors have been particularly focused on assuring everyone that they will see the situation through. In the circumstances I can only wish the club, its players, supporters and staff the very best.

I also confirm that I have spoken with Peter Marsden. I know he made a statement to the directors at the board meeting on Saturday, and I admire his courage and his integrity, and wish him well in the future. It is not my place to comment on what he said, and why he resigned. I am sure that will emerge in due course.

Finally, I confirm that the loan that I made in June of £25,000 through the ASSF will be written off by me. I do not wish to receive the money back, and it will therefore become an unconditional donation to the club and thereby lessen its debt by a small margin. I will not be making any further pledges, commitments or donations.
