I signed up today :|

Have you laminated the leaflets to remove the health and saftey risk? :D

and of course this is in no way related to the trust paying for the new keeper :wink:

The board say "give us money and we can be friends" **

To be fair, I don't think it is Piemonte. On the one hand, we'd never be so petty as to say "We're only going to hand over the RAF money if you let us give out leaflets" (and the board know that) and on the other, I suspect that some people may have concluded that last weekend's "ban" didn't exactly work very well and was a bit of an own goal, so they may well have been minded to lift it anyway, keeper or no.

Or, maybe they've now had the chance to put the leaflets through a range of safety tests and risk analyses and concluded they are, after all, unlikely to throttle small chidren.

if you can double numbers again would be great to have near enough 1000 trust members.

Just signed up again, good initiative the £1 membership. Out of interest, do the Trust members know how much the loan costs? Well done club for having the common sense - I'm really starting to like Martyn Starnes (not that I ever didn't)  - communications top class, right out of the Mark devlin school.

have just posted this in another thread so Ill probably be banned by Sonic for re-posting but here goes ;

i just think that all of a sudden certain people have realised that continuous "own goals" are not doing the board any favours at all.

Especially after the Wise saga, and the non committal atitude at the AGM.

Whilst being a Trust board member, contrary to poular belief, I do not have a broad brush approach to everyone that sits on the board as a collective, in fact far from it.

The proof of the pudding is in the eating so to speak.

The noises that are coming from Mr Starnes are welcoming and channels of communication between fans and the board have been so long in coming that I salute it.

Whilst the consortium's aims and goals remain the same, it will make the process so much easier to have routes into the club that are rational and not blinkered.

As I have said before .................. long may it continue

I'm not going anywhere near the Winners now if there's dangerous paper-based objects about. I could have my eye out or something. Somebody think of the children!

No, you just give us an extra quid. To get "Ultimate Trust Power" you have to wear brightly coloured pyjamas, execute a series of pointless but vaguely martial arts-type air kicks/leaps (with appropriate coloured smoke in the background) with at least four mates, similarly dressed and choreographed, while shouting "Go Ultimate Trust Power". You will then be transformed into an "Ultimate Trust Power Ranger" and will be able to take on the forces of darkness (Piemonte) in the never ending struggle between good and evil.

It's not a membership option we advertise widely enough, IMHO

No, but you can buy Trust badges online at http://www.truststfc.co.uk/merchandise.php. A snip at 3 quid (I think).

Pah! Our Ultimate Trust Power Rangers, under the wise guidance of Yeovil Red Ranger and FB Ranger, will put an end to your evil schemes, by the power of Castle Mawhinney and lycra jumpsuits!
