Still got the hump after my away day so, in that vein, now that the even the happiest of clappers have probably put their hands in the pockets can we expect the Trust to start asking serious questions about what is actually going on at the club?
Anyone with half a brain can smell that something isn't right about the current hierarchy.
I appreciate that a lot of time and effort has gone into the stadium purchase and perhaps they haven't had their eye on the ball for that reason but if next season isn't going to be a rinse and repeat of this shitshow, then someone needs to start applying some pressure and they are probably best placed given their spot on the Monthly
Box Ticking Charade Advisory Board.
Here are some starters for 10. Feel free to add. And you don't just let them fob you off with a 'We'll get back to you.' You keep pushing until you get an answer:
What is Zav Austin's role at the club?
Did he fail the FPP Test?
If yes, does he qualify as a Relevant Person in the eyes of the EFL?
What is Chris Kiely's day to day role at the club?
How can we hope to function without full time experienced professionals in key roles like Club Secretary?
I'm sick of how unbelievably tinpot this club is becoming, and how many shady people seem to be hanging around a so-called 'family club'. As has been said time and time again, no one above Morris has a clue how to run a football club and it shows in everything we do. The basic functions are simply not being performed. And yet we piss about with Karachi (just why is a builder from Beckenham hobnobbing with local Government officials in a port city in Pakistan...?), the Sustainability guff (fine if you are absolutely nailing everything else), taking on the women's team (we can't yet run a men's team...), and chasing ratings in some hobbyist's meaningless fan engagement index.
This makes me laugh, and gives an idea of the due diligence the Trust did on this mob...

It was a lot easier to forget all of this when we were flying at the end of last season but I've enjoyed this one about as much as root canal and it really is blindingly clear that as a club we have no idea what we are doing.
Bah humbug.
If they don't want us asking questions, then they need to keep winning matches!
