Would the current board, with all its current goings on, happily accept a member of the trust to represent the fans? I'm sure they'd be too afraid of rumours/truths getting out. Personally I can only see something like a trust representative happening if the trust had a shareholding.

 None of Bob Holt or Sandy Gray have a shareholding and it didn't stop them being on the Board......FB after 25 cans of White Ace would still be more coherent than 66% of our current board.....never seen the remaining 34% at an AGM.

Yeah but Bob got sacked when he gave too much away. I'm not saying it can't happen, but with the statements about the Trust and the fans, I just feel the current board would deem it too dangerous to get anyone representing the fans on board.

That said if it did happen it would be a massive step for us and would improve the governance of this football club which presently hasn't been up to scratch.

Governance...good word.

    It was deemed too dangerous 5 years ago...had it happened the current mess could surely have been avoided.

I like using fancy words that I don't know the meaning to  Wink

And you're absolutely right on that last point Reginald.

who was your uncle Fred...

Just mentioned it because when going through some old junk I found the cut out of the newpaper article...seems it was kept as my dad was a memeber of it...

I remember going round the empty county ground collection bits of paper out the suggestion boxes...

I always felt a bit naughty running round the CG when it was empty

Did the Trust ever approach the DD and IB short lived regime about a fan rep on the board?
