But Wyness says the arrival of new managing director David Beeston from Liverpool suggests there's an easing of the tension.

He told Football Insider: "Just a few weeks ago, we spoke about how Clearlake and Boehly were at each other’s throats.

"That seems to have thawed. It’s amazing what a few wins can do, not just in the dressing room but in the boardroom.

"It does seem that peace has broken out. They will have known that it was a bad look, and hopefully, they’ve sorted things out."
