Your post was made at 6.44am - no response in 4 hours - disgraceful!  Sort it out Chris, Dave et al

Personally, I'm going to wait for the postman to arrive to find out what's going on.....


Must be good your postman, try and get him on the fishy.

TBF if you are not a member of the trust it has nothing to do with you! (Awaits backlash)


Calm down mate, you have chipped in a tenner and you think that gives you more of an interest in GTFC than me.  That type of sentiment is the problem with the trust and was the problem with the last trust.

Everyone wants their little bit of power and you know what?  You are gonna throw it all away by giving the shares to fenty!  It is decisons like that that made me hold off on becpoming a memeber of the trust and will continue to dissuade me in the future.

It is OUR club, not the trust's, not fenty's and (even though you have chucked a tenner on the table) not yours!!!  Awaits dull response. . .

What a load of balderdash you talk anyone who gets involved in the trust is power mad and doing it for their own ego yet when they go to the members for a vote this displeases you also. perhaps you should throw your tenner on the table and let the trust benefit from your wisdom

I totally see what you're saying but without the knowledge of why there is a ballot its unfair to say it.

WHS.  If you haven't joined the trust then quite frankly you have no basis from which to comment on the actions there of.


And all because you have joined the trust, it does not give you the right to be spokesmen for every supporter. . . .

You have chipped in a tenner and you think that will give you a seat next to Fenty.  The Trust has yet to convince me of their value, comments such as yours re-assure me that I am right about this.  Folk saying they are going to give the shares to fenty just about sums up the mentality of many on the trust and to be honest, I would rather have no part of it!!!

I'm a member of the Trust but I don't think shrouding what is done in mystery is a positive thing. The Trust needs to be careful that it doesn't create an 'us and them' scenario - whilst non-members aren't entitled to vote, I do think they're entitled to know what's happening and to have an opinion. Alienating and excluding people completely won't persuade anybody to join up.

But it's going to a vote. I may very well vote no. You have no say whatsoever....

You are correct when you say I have no say whatsoever in the trust.  The trust is an organisation which holds no sway over the board or fenty or the club. . . . they are pretty much Fenty's fundraising arm.  You hold no sway, I have no say in you holding no sway. . . what is the difference???
