Surely the voice of the trust, is in reality the voice of the trust members?

I would deride a poll on the Fishy, it is a survey of particularly interested fans populating one corner of the internet, and also can people vote twice in it? I don't know about the last point, am genuinely asking.
I didn't vote in any poll as I am completely on the fence. Not sure either way but certainly agree there is a split amongst the fans on Hurst. The one thing I hope is not to read any posts wanting us to lose so he will go. I hope all on here and at the games will hope that Hurst proves us wrong and not want him out so badly they start opposing the team.
Yes if you clear your cookies after each vote you can vote as many times as you like, This was pointed out when the yes vote jumped by over 200 in one night but the fishy itself only had a hand full of users logged in. If you polled the fans after last nights game you would get a big yes vote but would you have got the same result a week ago, not a chance.

How can they represent Trust members if they are unwilling to ask for Trust members' opinions?

I said when they was first appointed that they was just Anoraks in cheap suits , They have done intercourse all for the fans other than talk about bringing flasks in the ground. Like someone said most the fans in the supporters club and trust ect are the rose tinted specs mob , most of the other have just stopped going

Even if they did ask Trust members for their views so they could represent those views when the back or sack Hurst board meeting comes up - which it will - it doesn't really matter. Ultimately what JF wants, JF will get.

Well what he won't get is promotion, growing gate receipts or justification for a new stadium with that shower of shite from last night. What he will get is further criticism from those of us who are fed up with the tide going further out. In fact, if it goes much further out, the North Sea will become a desert.

I understand many of the above comments and share many of the frustrations expressed. However, the performance last Sat was very good. This does not gel with many of the above comments. Newcastle for instance have had a long run of poor results and the manager is still in post. Our home form is very poor. What does not help are recent headlines in the Telegraph: "Grimsby Town chiefs aim to make Blundell Park a fortressBy Grimsby Telegraph | Posted: September 29, 2014" Similar to the last few seasons, these headlines are always about what the team and club are going to do, not what they have done. It just tempts fate.

What is really frustrating about Mr Hurst is statements like he made in the post match interview. He stated that GTFC are "still in with a chance of the playoffs" Well excuse me, the team in position 1 are only 10 points ahead of us, his ambition would be to replace them as 10 points is easily within reach IF he stops messing with the team

My first game of the season last night but watched what was a re-run of many games last season. From what I've read, only twice have we really performed at home this seaso, with Welling being an adequate. 2 good home performances out of 7 is just not good enough
