I know from first hand experience the efforts put in by the Trust and I'm all too aware of the disdain given the Trust by some at the club.
I could write a book on the saga.
Ever since the Centenary season, this club has been the club of the missed opportunity, appallingly run commercially, but brilliantly run on the pitch until recently.
This on field success has papered over cracks wide enough to hide 1000 fans.
We have warned the club, advised it, cajoled it, worked for it for free, and eventually, you just think fook it.
The penny dropped for me 3 years ago when I asked the Chairman if he felt it would be wise to fix the holes in the roof whilst the sun was shining. The look of utter disdain he gave me told me all I needed to know. Sadly. |
i look forward to the book as long as the proceeds go to a worthy charity. |  | | |

It's about time the Trust took a more aggressive stance. How many shares has it amassed = about 8000?
Fook spending the £40k of fan generated funds on magical pitch covers and start buying shares and really hold the Board to account. |  |

That roof comment was made today - because there's an actual leak in the main stand roof. Thankfully there are enough spare seats to avoid the drip. |  |

Well, if there is no goodwill left, there appears to be only two options. Wind up the ST at the end of the season once membership benefits expire and disburse the accumulated monies in line with the trust articles or take a more aggressive stance. If there is anyone with sufficient shares to get on board that would be a start. Unless we can get more home support than 1600 we could always go to the new Aldi Woodland store and show support that way! | | | |

That would encourage me to become a member of the trust. | |

I don't know if you're serious or not but Plan A in cosying up hasn't worked, despite the fine efforts of a fine board of gentlemen and fans. | |

Become a member, make yourself heard.
Nothing stopping Trust members requesting a meeting.
Edit: a Trust meeting that is, with the Trust board and other members. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

I am being serious Judd. I've never been a member, just cause moneywise I feel like buying my tickets and buying merchandise etc. is enough, and to be honest being a student etc. I'm not the most flush at the best of times.
But if the trust were to start buying shares, I'd become a member and would do everything I could to convince the people I go with to become members too. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Well the Trust has been shat on in buying shares in recent years - the one for one for the pitch covers being the case in point. I think the club offerd summat like 1 for 6. | |

The Trust are also always on the lookout for help/people to join them.
More members, more voice, better chance of the fans views being heard if the Trust members make it clear what they want. | |

The Trust offered £40,000 for 2 seats on the board last April. We haven't even been offered a reply. We made our offer on the condition we didn't receive privileges or a vote.
Since then the club have taken on 2 associate directors who have paid fook all and receive privileges.
Just how big can 2 fingers get? | |

Not appeased, barely tolerated.
The Trust are headed by a fine bunch who are no mugs but must be thoroughly pissed off by the inertia.
A radical overhaul of Trust intentions is required before a growth in membership is seen, in my opinion. | |

Merely saying Trust members, and all supporters for that matter, should make it clear what they want. | |
