Oh Christ, this is one of the last things the trust and we as fans need. Reading on Facebook Alan Rutter refuses to reveal the reasons why Paul Savage stepped down, but it’s this caginess which will only lead to more speculation.

I do hope Paul does take time out to explain his reasons for stepping down, this just makes me think more and more the trust be best off stepping down from the board, at least then they can fully represent the fans without any censorship from certain board members.

Can we have details, at least at a high level, what the disagreement was about and what is the future direction of the Trust?

Sad day. Rutter has been there at every forum to talk about how good a job Fenty has done. What has gone on Bax?


Even sadder that Rutter is a Leeds fan

Hopefully there will be because we should actually get an election with a debate about different policies.

Time for people to join and get involved and swing this in the right direction before it's too late.

I appreciate not everything can be released into the public domain.

However, I think it's important there's some communication/clarity here. If Mr Savage has resigned because of the direction the trust wants to go in, then us members should know what direction those in control are trying to go in.

Also think it's strange to have this disagreement now as surely there direction will be, to some level, dictated by the results of the current survey???

First of all, may I thank Paul for his work, particularly in relation to the Stevenage affair. However, given the announcement this evening, there is an urgent need for clarity about what the issues are, not just for those of us who are Trust members but the broader fan base.

Quoted from Davec
I would assume some members wanted them to resign from board but Savage wanted to remain on the board?

As said above it is a shame because Rutter is for the checkatrade trophy and he is a staunch Fenty and possibly Slade fan.


You talk some flipping excrement.

I think there is a need to communicate what the bone of contention was/is. It's of critical interest to members (and other fans).
