Not wishing to alarm anyone but SkyBet aren’t taking a price on us for relegation - the only club not listed.
Maybe somebody knows of a points deduction.
We are listed at other sites at 8/1 which is weird as Walsall on the same points are 125/1

Surely more just a case of a few Swindon fans lumping on and bookies shitting themselves in case there's something in it.

The crayola-covered financial accounts the club let the Trust view from across the Legends Lounge whilst distracting them with mince pies and plumbers humour said so... "See? Look, they're fuckin' real, right? Anyway, the back of my van, it said 'We repair what your husband fixed'...."

Is Morfuni here for the whole of January, overseeing the transfer window? Has anyone actually seen him yet?

He's been pictured multiple times since arriving. Someone on our WhatsApp group who was at Crawley sent a picture of him posing happily with his kids for a photo. Seemingly he turned up in a battered Audi A3 whilst Zav was there, stepping out of a Porche. I wonder if it was leased?

Something I've noticed after the re-emergence of old advisory minutes after James Spencer's escapades on Trust twitter the other night is that on the original advisory board explanation, the club advised that a 'buy back option' on the shares exchanged existed in order to protect the club, yet on the latest advisory board minutes to the question is Clem gonna re-purchase them, 'he's looking into it'.
I can imagine not acquiring 100% of the club would put off some potential owners from purchasing the club, so you'd have thought it would be in Clemente's interest to already have these shares back. Gives me fears of another Jed v Power situation.

But he'd need the money to buy them back and he hasn't got a bean, which is why he sold them in the first place.

I'm not exactly sure what "to protect the club" means. Unless its in order to remove pre-emption rights.
Which is a point, does the terms now dictate if Clem sells he has to offer to Kiely first - much like Power had to with Clem?

Oh don't you worry, Clemente is 'looking into that' too But 'thinks' pre-emption rights don't exist. Although I feel from previous digging, the articles of association on companies house says they do.

He was in the Legends Lounge for the Wrexham game as my cousin spoke to both him and Charlie Austin in there.

Yesterday was another tough one to take for all Town fans, but we have to look forward and remain positive that things will get back on track. Therefore, we’d like to wish you a Happy New Year.
Today we announce our AGM, which is at the end of February click here for more information.
As some experienced board members are stepping down, we will have 10 seats vacant with 3 existing board members standing again, so there's an opportunity for a reset within the Trust as we welcome applications from fans interested in making a difference. We're particularly interested in candidates with skills in accountancy, copywriting/PR, project management, IT, social media/website management, and fundraising.
Thanks also to all those who've reached out recently with constructive feedback, comments and suggestions. It’s all been discussed internally and the entire board of TrustSTFC understand your frustrations. As fellow supporters and Trust members who attend matches regularly, we are just as disheartened by current results.
Admittedly, we've been relatively quiet lately, but Trust board members have been actively working throughout December and the Christmas period to address concerns around the club. We know we made some big communication mistakes with the latest financial review, and so with the new year upon us we are committed to improving that and reaching out more regularly.
Whilst we can’t comment on every discussion that is had with club representatives, there are many, and we suspect all the things you would want us to say have been said. You can expect more regular communication from us throughout January, and we will push for the club to do the same.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
