Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: Fred Elliot on Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 21:19:08 released this evening :
Statement from TrustSTFC regarding the departure of Dennis Wise and Gus Poyet. "We bitterly regret the departure of Dennis Wise and Gus Poyet from Swindon Town as yet another body blow to Town fans who had witnessed a mini revolution on the pitch at the start of the season. This is the second such blow in little over a month, following on as it does from Bill Power's disengagement from the club in late September, fans are once again left wondering what is going to happen to their club. We would therefore like to make an appeal to both the fans and the club ahead of a pivotal weekend. Firstly to the fans, to continue the magnificent support you have shown the team all season in what is arguably our biggest game of the season so far. Secondly, we appeal to the club to be as transparent as possible at the AGM on Saturday morning. To that end, given that we understand James Wills will not be attending, we would ask that his advisor, Mike Diamandis, make himself available to answer questions. Mr Diamandis is afterall the man who brought Dennis Wise to the club in the summer, and as the main decision maker at the club, will be instrumental in the appointment of his successor. And finally, while we understand and share fans' anger and frustration at the way our club lurches from drama to fiasco and back again, we would urge that calm heads prevail" The board of TrustSTFC Fred Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: Batch on Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 21:40:11 I can see another SSW strop coming Mr Davis way. How dare you ask Mr Diamandis to be transparent?
PS. Any timeframe for kicking off the Trust recruitment drive I got emailed about the other day? Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: spacey on Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 21:45:23 Statement from The TEF regarding the departure of Dennis Wise and Gus Poyet.
"We bitterly regretted the departure of Dennis Wise and Gus Poyet from Swindon Town but hey we've slept on it and well fuck it. This is the second such Fatbury sized bombshell in little over a month, following on as it does from Bill Power's plummeting from the sky in late September, fans are once again left wondering what is the soup that they sell at the kiosks? It says soup £1.00 but what flavour is it? I asked for Gazpacho and the girl behind the counter looked at me like I was mental We would therefore like to make an appeal to both the fans and the club ahead of a pivotal weekend. Firstly to the fans, to continue the magnificent support you have shown the team all season in what is arguably our biggest game of the season so far. It's Lincoln for fucks sake! I can't believe it! Fucking Lincoln's a big game :x Imps...fucking Gimps more like Secondly, we appeal to the club to be as transparent as possible at the AGM on Saturday morning. To that end, given that we understand James Wills will not be attending as he's washing his hair , we would ask that his advisor, Mike Diamandis, make himself available to be shouted at by red faced men brandishing pitchforks. Mr Diamandis is afterall the man who brought Dennis Wise to the club in the summer, and as the main decision maker at the club, will be instrumental in the appointment of his successor. And finally, while we understand and share fans' bad taste in clothes and music, and are a bit bloody annoyed I can tell you at the way our club lurches from drama to fiasco to crisis to nightmare to doom to I might as well just jump and then you'll be sorry, and back again, we would urge that calm heads get pissed and fall over in the street" Spacey Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: Fred Elliot on Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 21:47:54 Quote from: "Batch" I can see another SSW strop coming Mr Davis way.

Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: Fred Elliot on Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 21:53:21 Believe me I would want it carried out in the middle of the pitch or the stratton bank at about 1.30 but alas.....................you need to be a share holder
Sit tight and ill see you in the TE and give you the low down ps save me some rum you tight bastard ! Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: Christy on Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 21:53:49 At least Spacey's effort was a little bit funny.

Yes Tom he needs to complete the forms and file them with the club by close of business Friday Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: red macca on Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 21:59:25 Quote from: "Fred Elliot" Believe me I would want it carried out in the middle of the pitch or the stratton bank at about 1.30 but alas.....................you need to be a share holder we got caught with the rum last time but might buy you a pint before where you drinking? can i be your proxy thingymajig and just tell them your a spaz or something :DSit tight and ill see you in the TE and give you the low down ps save me some rum you tight bastard !

I would go in to the ins and outs but its late and I cant be arsed. basically we are pissed off but need to say it in a nice :fag: sort of way That enough for you for now ?

They know Im a spacca already but we could pretend to be lou and andy Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: genf_stfc on Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 22:06:09 Quote from: "Fred Elliot" They know Im a spacca already you probably shouldn't go then - everyone will think you are a board member Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: Dazzza on Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 22:13:47 Quote from: "Fred Elliot" Quote from: "Dazzza" Spacey, that sir was funny.

Dazz Sandy, Lambert, Willie (yet to confirm) That is all my friend Cheers Fred, Any idea who is acting on behalf of Swindon Town Properties Ltd, presumably Sandy in James Wills absence. On the subject of STPL at the AGM last May was it announced that the company had acquired the majority shareholding in 2004? I don’t remember hearing anything at the time and if so it appears a bit dubious to say the least. Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: Fred Elliot on Tuesday, October 24, 2006, 22:21:13 As the statement reads Dazza
We really feel that in order to glean a true overall picture we need to ask the person who "pulls the strings" so to speak........................ that is why we have asked for total transparecy and for MickyD to be present hmmmmmm Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: fatbury on Wednesday, October 25, 2006, 10:11:40 Just seen this and totally agree with the trust statement - I find it very peculiar that at this pivotal time for the club that James Wills isnt going
Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: RobertT on Wednesday, October 25, 2006, 10:24:18 I might be talking bollocks but I don't think he does AGM's very often if at all. That only leaves Sandy Gray on the Board these days in an official capacity to turn up.
Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: Rich Pullen on Wednesday, October 25, 2006, 10:27:24 Quote from: "fatbury" I find it very peculiar that at this pivotal time for the club that James Wills isnt going I don't. This is a text book James Wills decision! :wink: Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: fatbury on Wednesday, October 25, 2006, 10:27:41 with all that is going on you would think the major shareholder would have some kind of representation .. therefore I fully agree with the decision to invite Mike D - the trust is doing some fine work - keep it up

Title: Statement from the Trust Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, October 25, 2006, 10:56:13 Oh dear - Brian Hillier. How could I have forgotten him!
