Episode 10 with Chris Turner who has created a brand new football club in Wakefield

In I Bought A Football Club-Stephen Cleeve Chairman King’s Lynn Town FC, you get a seat at a table rarely open to the public. This isn't a fan's fantasy or a pundit's analysis; it's the raw, unfiltered account from the owner's office. Stephen Cleeve, who purchased the club in 2016 and spearheaded its rise from the Southern League to the National League, narrates the journey himself. Each episode pulls back the curtain on the relentless, often chaotic reality of club stewardship. You'll hear about the agonizing decisions that happen long before the team walks onto the pitch, the financial tightropes walked every month, and the human stories that define a community institution. The podcast moves beyond transfers and tactics to explore what it truly costs-emotionally, financially, and personally-to be responsible for a football club's heartbeat. Cleeve's perspective is grounded in the specific trials and tribulations at King's Lynn Town, yet the insight he provides resonates with anyone curious about the beautiful game's brutal business. It's a masterclass in resilience, offering thought-provoking moments that challenge romantic notions of football ownership. For listeners who crave substance over spectacle, this series delivers a compelling, behind-the-scenes narrative you won't find on the back pages.
