Let’s hope we don’t get into a debate about people going bald or having small willies too as then I definitely will be in trouble!


Why bring me into it ?

I have not said anything.

I’m clinging on for dear life mate, probably got another 12 months before I have to bic it. Process is accelerated by stress, so that’s another thing I’m blaming Fenty for.

Seems a sorry state of affairs. IMO everyone needs to unite and the most feasible way to do that is behind the Trust.

If you dont agree with the direction you perceive it is going towards, then ensure you complete the survey and tell them!

The Trust can only act upon what the majority choose for them to do.

Reading this thread and social media in general it seems the fans are split about the value of the having someone on the board. Will everyone accept the decision of the majority? I hope they do because otherwise it becomes very fractious

Clearly the Trust is getting outvoted in some key decisions, but, it is privy to information not more widely available (obvious limitations on what it can do with it), the rep on the club board does get to put forward the Trust's viewpoint in discussions, and, for me, should the balloon go up, we (the fans) have a voice at the heart of discussions. Worth hanging on I say.

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.

I find it hard to believe the Trust is still finding it difficult to even decide what it should do other than appoint committee members with impressive sounding titles. Why does it need a survey of members to say what its purpose is, shouldn't it be the other way round? Most organisations state their intended purpose and then try and attract members who agree with them. How can you send out updates when you don't even know why you are here? It's all quite surreal.


The Trust is a democratic organisation. It does have declared aims - in fact they're embedded in its constitution and articles of association. They were set several years ago when the Trust was first formed. The question is, are these still what members want, and how should it go about furthering its aims.

All pretty reasonable if you ask me.

Have you had a nose around the Trust's website?
