I get that, it' smessy right now. But my take is that if you're a paying member now, you might as well wait and see who's on the newly elected board in the coming weeks before deciding to cancel.

Yup - if nothing else, you can vote against people you don't like.

I do wonder actually if a lot of the people who've "cancelled" their membership/direct debit are actually still members until a year expires... more disgruntled people might still be members than realise.

I'm certainly going to look at reducing my contribution to the minimum possible level though.

I don't think the Trust have their eye on how members they have, truly i'd be fascinated to know how they worked out how many members they have!

I've been holding back but the sheer incompetence at the moment is not something I want to pay into. I don't trust them with a twitter account let alone my monthly donations.

Swindon Town owner Clem Morfuni said that he still can’t put a timeframe on buying back the shares in the club.

Look, it is a priority but they have no influence over the club anyway, Anthony [Hall] and I run the show.

“They have just got no influence so we have more important things to concentrate on than trying to buy the shares back but we are going through that process.


The Adver had their 20 minutes it seems.

To be honest I didn't realise there was a £1 option, quite a while ago when I joined initially.

Diversionary lies. A simple transfer of shares does not take time, if you have the money and the other party intends to sell. It could be done almost instantly. ]

But Morfuni is well aware that 90% of Town fans won't question it. The comments to that story say it all already.

[RobertT]

What utter twaddle - it's a shame "reporters" just take such answers and print them without further investigation.

I'd presume, for example, that if any shares had indeed changed hands, paperwork would needed to have been submitted to Companies House, and none has shown up since the original transfer occurred.  The flannel that Clem then gets stuck in trying to avoid a proper answer pretty mush suggests fuck all has likely happened.  He is trying to get away with suggesting it's all just too complicated for us to understand, although suggesting Hall is in charge is hardly inspiring as the alternative to being a puppet.

Can't wait for all the "Well said Clem" drongos to be out in force later. They are clearly in the minority of fans who comment online now but fuck me they're infuriating.
