Pete - why so aggressive?

As I explained the Trust isn’t there to get involved in staff contracts. I am sure the board members know but again it’s not in my gift to ask them about the private details of peoples contracts.

I am sure if someone asks the question at the fans forum you’ll get the correct answer.

I am not aggressive Bax just frustrated if you say you do not know I believe you,

Its just make it more sinister that the information of other managers and players have always come out at the press conference when they have signed for us,

BUT

On this occasion nothing has been said even after numerous posters on here have ask the question.

Seeing you have only been in post 2 weeks I do not blame you mate,

It's all Ian's fault

We may as well pack the whole idea in then.


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.

It`s odd Pete I agree with that but it doesn`t really matter he will either go or he will stay depending on results.Despite all the moaning I think RS is safe for another couple of games at least even if we lose them? Gates will be his undoing rather than soley results people will not pay good money to watch the style of football he wants to play and the fact he isn`t getting the results playing it will only add to his woes.

You are right Micky but when somebody tries to keep a secret from me it makes me more determined to find out,

And I will one day.

Why? The concept of a Football Club Trust is, in my view, to represent the fans and give the fans a more powerful voice by way of being a collective rather than a lone voice.

The Trust should be trying to ensure the club shows good governance although the club is totally under the control of one man which makes life difficult

Hi bax,

Just wondering if you can find out why the Upper Findus bogs haven’t had paper towels in them for a few games this season?

Never in my 21 years following Town have I had to go without drying my hands afer using the water piped directly from the Arctic until this season.

If you can’t answer this just what am I Trust member for?

I don't see the desperate need to know the details of Slade's contract.

Yeah it's often/usually made public but only the board can actually do anything about it so it makes no difference whether the supporters know how long it is or not.

Well if he is kept on say in 3-4 games time if the results continue in the same vein it makes a difference cos it means we can`t or wont pay him up.
