It's all my fault I admit it. If I hadn't have founded the Fishy we'd still be in the Championship, and might even have been playing the Europa Cup tonight.


You internet entrepreneurs are making a habit of apologising this week. Did you and Zuck go to the same PR workshop recently?  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

The first time I have been compared with Zuck. I suppose we both run a web site that begins with F

This one's much more exclusive though.

Not for me to speak on other people’s behalf, Steve, but aren’t lines like “well known pro-Fenty acolytes” being “installed” are a bit OTT? The thread’s gone from the Trust being like a Women’s Institure committee to being such a political threat that Fenty, a man who demonstrably couldn’t run a bath, has installed covert pro-regime sleeper agents in the group and instigated the resignation (one effectively forced by the fans) of two successive chairs? How many people are on the Trust board - 8? 10? It’s my understanding that any decisions the Trust (eventually) make are decided by the board as a whole, if so Fenty’s done a right job in getting his acolytes to make up the majority of that group.

Why the Trust aren’t more visible on here I’ll never know. A massive failing. Without an official moderating presence on here, it effectively leaves a vacuum for the whole conversation to become massively polarised and people fill that with speculation and assumption. The Trust needs to play a much more active role in the discussions taking place about it.


Good post and totally agree it`s usually left to barralad to fend off the critics.To me like it or loathe it The Fishy provides the biggest cross section of Town fans from all over the globe and is easily the busiest the Trust guys need to get on here and stand there corner.

Yes he is.


No he isn't. As Trust interim chair Alan's responsibilities are to the members.

Gobdmacked. Absolutely disgraceful lack of discussion about recent events. What about the survey result discussion?  Who are supporters direct who appear to have a lot of input?

Here's me expecting to read about what the Trust board think about the big issues like what do they do about their level of board room influence, the 30k a year, the fact that most fans want Fenty out, etc... but, hey, as long as they can get some birthday cards out all is good in the world. Ffs.

Isn't the new head of the trust a strong supporter of fenty?

Quoted from barralad

Terry Rudrum isn't a Fenty man either  

When the minutes mention statements and being approved by the board before release, which board do you mean?  The Trust board or the GTFC board?
