Hereford United chairman David Keyte has given his backing to consultant Stuart Blake after a Bulls News article questioned his involvement in club affairs.
"Stuart moved within a high-powered circle in London and has a large range of contacts," Keyte told the Hereford Times.
"He moved back to Hereford and has been assisting us as an unpaid consultant in various capacities.
"His contacts in London have helped with the share issue.
"Stuart is a consultant and not a non-executive director."
