The consortium have to buy them off JF to assume control of the club. JF then, if he felt obliged, could donate 200k to the Trust in cash. Couldn't care less at this point about greed, honour or moral obligation. Just want the deal finalised as soon as possible to draw a line under the most embarrassing and unsuccessful chapter in the club's history, and then find out what plans the consortium have for the future. Much more interested in that than anything else..

You could buy some decent players with £200,000 to spend. A couple of hotshot strikers would be a nice parting gift.

It wasn't "the Trust" that made that decision. "The Trust" gave the shares to Fenty because that is what the poll at that time of Trust members voted to happen.

The members make up the Trust.

I just misread and thought you were referring to the trust as the people on the trust board. Apologies. "The greatest mistake you can make in life is to continually be afraid you will make one."

You would think so. With the Alex May shinanigans his reputation is in the toilet. This would be a good way to help restore some semblance of credibility, and to help the club.
