Q, What colour are the walls of the boardroom
A, We're currently considering lining them with gold. We just thought it would be a good money-saving exercise as paint is too expensive.

what an arse ! "would you like to pay me for something that isn't mine and that you can probably find yourself for free anyway". Wouldn't be surprised if the CD-Rs came out of the office stationary cupboard (*although of course I have no proof of that and no accusation of such should be inferred, etc, etc*). |

I bet all the people who faithfully wrote down their questions to Diamandis, confident in the assurance that they would be answered frankly and openly, are dead chuffed.

Q: Who are the shareholders in the Club's Parent Company?
A: James Wills and Breams Registrars and Nominees Limited.
Q. What is the win bonus for the team?
David Astin
The actual win bonus should remain confidential. However, it is excessive for League 2 and League 1. It is also higher than many of the clubs in the Championship. It will be reduced significantly for next season.
Q. What is the current situation concerning budget for bringing in players given players that have left the club, compensation for Wise/Poyet, and the income from the summer concert?
Bob Milton, Trowbridge
Funds are available for Paul Sturrock to bring in at least three loan signings if the right players can be identified and are available. Half of the compensation due for Dennis Wise has been received, the balance is due in May 2007.
The Club made around £50K on the Bryan Adams concert. Most of the profit was attributable to the bars and catering and the funds have formed part of our working capital for the year
Q. When can we expect to see Mike Sullivan returning to his role at the club, and after six months as acting CEO, when will Martyn Starnes be confirmed as our permanent CEO?
Tom Godfrey
Clarification of Mike Sullivan's position is expected in the next few days. Martyn Starnes will continue as Acting Chief Executive for the time being.
Q: Can the board give cast iron guarantees that we will have a club to support next year?
Mark Merriman
The Board is completely confident that the fans will have a club to support next year
Q. What is the next five-year plan? Why should we believe you given the absolute failure of the past five-year plan (unless it was to get relegated and stay in losses)?
Rob Tuck
The outline plan for the next five years is to reduce annual operating losses to £300K and to achieve Championship status.
It is extremely difficult for any club at this level to operate within its own resources and remain competitive on the pitch. The plan presents a significant but achievable challenge.
Q. What is the break-even crowd this season? Is there still a deficit? If so why? And who is responsible?
Jon Sheppard
Regrettably the Club does not break-even and hasn't done so for many years. The majority of Football League clubs are in a similar situation and are subsidised by benefactors to a lesser or greater extent.
Q. Whey have no Accounts been produced for over 3 years?
Bob Moore
The only accounts that are overdue are those that relate to the year ended 31 May 2005. They are completed in draft and await the final audit report. Accounts for the year ended 31 May 2006 do not have to be filed until 31 March 2007.
Q. Given that you are holding a fans forum, do you believe in considering the supporters views when making decisions and how?
Eileen Bailey
The fans are the most significant stakeholders in the Club and of course we believe in considering their views. However, with most issues there are many views and opinions to satisfy and it is impossible to consistently make decisions that will be to the satisfaction of everyone.
Q. What is the current financial position of the club?
Alan Jones
The Club's current financial position is difficult but stable. Every effort is being made to improve the situation and the Board is confident of success in this respect over the next few years.
Q. Mike Diamandis said on Radio Swindon that the CVA was dependent on the ground redevelopment taking place within the 5 years yet the CVA document explicitly rules this out? Can the board explain the discrepancy?
Rob Godfrey
The bullet payment of £900,000 within the CVA document clearly anticipated a successful development and revenue streams from such a development being available in order to make a settlement of that amount. The Administrator, Andrew Andronikou, recognises this and is in the process of re-negotiating the payment schedule accordingly. This is common practice within an active CVA.
Q. What has the money been spent on from the sale of Rory Fallon and Sam Parkin?
Sam Dunne
The money received from the sale of Rory Fallon and Sam Parkin was used to finance the day-to-day running of the Club which includes maintaining the football budget at competitive levels.
Q. Why are all fans groups treated with suspicion and mistrust?
Mark Merriman
The fans groups are certainly not regarded with suspicion and mistrust. Members of the Board speak regularly with representatives of all the fans groups and enjoy excellent relationships with the majority.

Nice to see they've still not read the CVA document and apparently didn't listen to Andronikou (eventually) admit the CVA isn't dependent on the CG being redeveloped either. Unless they're deliberately misleading us and I'm sure they'd never do that :shock:
