Stephen
Vaughan Senior could be linked to the current goings-on at Hereford, as
‘owner’ Tommy Agombar has enquired about taking control of two valuable
leases owned by the Club.
According to reliable local sources, Bulls News reports that he has reared his head at the former Conference Club, who were expelled yesterday following failure of ‘owner’ Tommy Agombar to make a series of payments to the Conference for the vast debts run up under former owner and still Chairman, local solicitor David Keyte.
Vaughan is a highly controversial figure who owned Barrow, Chester City and Widnes Vikings – and recently had a controversial spell at Floriana in Malta – and was subsequently banned for 11 years in November 2009 from acting as a director of any company following his involvement in a £500,000 VAT fraud whilst a director of Widnes Vikings. This meant that he failed the FA’s fit and proper person test, and was forced to reduce his shareholding in Chester City. However, even with his son formally in control in February 2010, Chester City was unable to fulfill their financial obligations and the Club was expelled and then wound up at the High Court.
The Council has already disclosed that Agombar has approached the Council to transfer two important leases out of the football club and into his own company, with Council leader Tony Johnson saying that he wants to prevent any “asset stripping”.
It has also emerged that the club is in breach of of its leases.
Local councillor Jim Keynon has told BBC Hereford and Worcester:
“I managed to look at the lease earlier today, I’ll look at the other two tomorrow.
“Within the lease it says they have to pay the utilities, if they don’t they are in breach of their lease.
“They have got to pay the Council. They haven’t paid any rates or rent in 18 months.
“The Council should up the anti and say we want our payment. This is taxpayers money at the end of the day.”
The Hereford United Supporters Trust has been working hard to get answers for fans in the background, and has issued statements reiterating their £1 offer for the Club to Agombar.
