Title: It's all going pear shaped Post by: ScillyRed on Thursday, May 17, 2007, 11:07:04 As a trust member & fan of 30+ years, albeit a 'non attender' due to geographical constraints. I fear that the fans consortium efforts are doomed to failure - the reason will not be the quantum/quality of the offer but the personal abuse and vitriol directed at the various board members. They may well be lying, theiving, dickheads - but if I was in their position, the last thing I would want to do is to be associated in any way with the perpetrators of these insults, who I am sure they regards as a minor distraction at the end of the day, as borne out by their recent press releases.
I sincerely hope I am wrong and that Bill get's his chance - but don't hold your breathe !!!!!! Rant over Happy summer everyone - hope the future is orange :D :D :D Title: It's all going pear shaped Post by: Arriba on Thursday, May 17, 2007, 11:10:08 its all got a long way to go yet, it seems.

Title: It's all going pear shaped Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Thursday, May 17, 2007, 12:17:46 i think we just need to keep an open mind to it all. we have to believe it isn't the end as that's probably far from the case.
Title: It's all going pear shaped Post by: Mark Hanrahan on Thursday, May 17, 2007, 12:33:22 One thing I've learnt over the past twenty years is that don't take anything STFC for granted, don't assume anything, and certainly don't expect a fat lady to ever sing!
For all it's rights and wrongs, for better or for worse, I love this club. Title: It's all going pear shaped Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, May 17, 2007, 12:34:02 I think dave's found one internet paddy and concluded the Trust are melting down because of it.

Not that I've noticed. If there's going to be personal abuse slinging, I'd like to know so I can get in on the fun :D Title: Re: It's all going pear shaped Post by: pauld on Thursday, May 17, 2007, 13:34:38 Quote from: "ScillyRed" the personal abuse and vitriol directed at the various board members. There's been a considerable amount of that, granted, from individual fans, some of whom support the Fans' Consortium effort. But there certainly hasn't from the Consortium itself.
