Just a little heads up for those that might have forgotten. 8pm. GW Bar.

Do we know if there's going to be an agenda and is it being chaired? Or is it just being thrown open to the floor?

I can't go now as I don't have a car  :(

Go on your horse?

(where's your car?)

My horse is broken,

My brother has my car as he is MOT-ing it  :(

I would imagine Paul D / Trust will chair it as if it is just thrown open to floor then there will be no control or anything decided constructively

Good I was hoping that. I just had this thought of the meeting descending into chaos.

Yes, we will be chairing the meeting, if nothing else to ensure that everyone who wants to has a chance to be heard.

Bloody socialists, eh.

i can't go either as i am working, boooo.

did someone say something about email voting? suppose we need to know what to vote about first  :?

Expect a good number to show tonight.  A lot of people have been asking via the net/groups etc. what is being planned for Saturday.  Potential to be a good turnout!

We can't do an email vote prior to the meeting for precisely that reason. However if you're not able to get to the meeting and have a point you wish to make, PM or email me ([email protected]) and we'll make sure your view is put across.

what time do you think it will go on to? i could potentially be there just after 10 but i imagine it will all be done by then.

No idea mate. As long as people want it to.

Unfortunately I will not be able to attend because of alcohol in my system by 8pm.
In future can these meetings be made on Saturday mornings match days. I know this meeting had to be called quickly and on this occasion you could not do much about the timing. A lot of fans live a fair distance from Swindon and have no chance attending a midweek evening session which will probably not end until around 10pm.

Aren't most of the meetings on saturday mornings anyway?

I dont know I've never been to one, never felt the need to attend until now.

dell, they usually do alternate between saturdays and weekdays.
as this is an emergency meeting they could hardly delay it could they?
i cant go either due to work,but thats just the way it is

Yes I understand that Arriba, isn't that what I said on my first post?

I can't go due to work either which I'm quite P*ssed off about.

Hope after tonight things move forward.

I'm going \ :D /

So ner ner ner ner ner.

There was a meeting planned for Saturday before the Tramere game at the GW bar.

i may attend. I have to practice with me band but should be finished early enough to make it down

Unless i can bring a child i cant go either, but im sending my boyfriend in my place!
Hopefully there will be a nice someone there to come home and post all that is relevent for us that cant attend, as boyfriends are very unreliable when there is beer involved.

I'm going but I've only got £6 left, so if I make some brilliant points during the meeting (like it's time for a break) will someone shout me a few pints?

Oh and I've got a proposal to support our fellow protesters in Burma; an exchange program; we send over Gary Stanley and they send us one of their awesome Buddhist monks. I reckon we'd be getting a bargain.

Ha ha, brilliant. I'll buy you a pint for making me laugh.

I actually like that idea.  :D

what she said, except without the child or boyfriend bits!

But dosen't Stanley look like a Buddhist monk anyway ?

Trouble is STFC may exchange Bowden for some Burma Milita if we do that  :?

Do we prfer a military junta or Dimandis in the boardroom... That's not so easy!

There is very little difference!!

You all have to turn it around into the same old thing don't you.

I can't go as I'm playing a football match tonight, look forward to hearing the outcome later though.

I could go if I pulled out of my darts match and drove down there, but to be honest I don't think I'd bring much to the debate and wouldn't even be able to drink because of the drive.

I'm happy to go with anything that's decided on tonight.

I'll do a little summary when I get in. I'll remember stuff too because I won't be drinking with Ben this time  :o

im in two minds about this one! Will the write up be detailed?

I'll give you a lift if you want. But I'm getting there for seven.

Ive gotta go swimming first mate, are you even allowed to drive still (no offence intended)

Nope  :wink:

innocent till proven guilty and all that, he can drive till he finds out the length of the ban etc IIRC

oh ok, maybe not then

Nah I was joking Chubbs. You were right the first time.

I shall be going along tonight. Hope it's a good turnout.

Blimey, Tony Norris is on 5Live with Clem.

And Clemmys just said that Oxford have the ugliest fans in the country. I think I'm in love.

who is clem?

i use 'clem' as an insult, you fucking clem!

Mark Clemence, alias Clem. The lower league expert chap who did the 92 club a while back. To be fair he seemed to know quite a bit about it and gave Tony more than just a few sentences to make his points. Good interview.
