Well done Paul and the other Trust members for sorting it out.It was a very interesting evening,it confirmed a lot of things for me.It was also good to hear some positive stuff as well from Mike Wilks as regards a consortium for the club,tbh i think a problem for myself was the question of where we could possibly go if Diamandis and i presume the Wills family[as they seem so protective of Diamandis :-))( ] leave us,as least there does seem to be a way forward. All the voting was ace,i felt like i should be calling everyone comrade  |

I hope the Adver got some of that.
As has been said before, turnout probably should have been better. But with the board basically denying everything, and threatening lawyers are waiting in every statement, its so difficult to get things out in the public domain.
Like I said we really need some tough reporting and some tough questions asked. WDP would be more likely to do that, but I dont think anyone at the club is allowed to talk to them anymore (after a bust up). A simmilar fate could befall the Adver if they try and do some more quizzical reporting, and they wont risk it.
At the moment the casual fan doesnt have a clue what the fuss is about. Hence the low turnout.

Yes very informative indeed I think the turnout could have been better but these things are never that well attended and thats the most I have seen at anything so its all good.Lots of people say they are going but when it comes down to it they cant be arsed (which is fair enough) On a side note A thoughtfull looking Yeovil is on BBc news  Paul Davis's picture in todays Adver he looks like he has Kidney failure hes the same colour as Homer Simpson |

Id still like to here from Power to be honest but because of the legal issues it seems we wont here from him anytime soon.I believe there is a rift between him and Diamandos no matter what the board are saying and I no longer think his ill health is the sole reason for him leaving . What ever way you look at it the board have made a pigs ear of everything and need to go.Some points made last night about turnover leave me eager to see some accounts (not that id know what I was looking at )Id like to know why were going to lose 1m quid this year and where the money thats come in has dissappeared to.Lots of things dont add up at all. |

Haven't posted on here in ages, so hello. One thing I can't get my head around that perhaps somone can answer.
The club states it needs gates of 10,000 to break even, when a couple of years ago the stated break even figure was 4500.
Whats happened since?
Gates of 10,000 would produce gate receipts of around 3.5-4 million pounds a year. How the hell can we need that much to break even?

I would imagine that a body of independant forensic accountants would be employed in order to substantiate the clubs financial affairs for the previous 5 yrs |
