So you were at a meeting between the club and fans representatives?
But you have said in previous posts that you are an independent......
So how did you get an invite?
Who at this meeting was representing fans and from what group?
I know Bennett was there on behalf of the Official supporters group. what other fans groups were represented?

triseros ... they never said the CVA was up to date ... they said that "all current commitments have been met" ... which as I have said before was factually corrrect as the CVA is being renegotiated and so nothing is currently due until it is sorted ...... but nevertheless incredibly misleading and certainly my view is that the reason that current commitments have been met should have been revealed ..... but technically they told no lie at that meeting.
arriba ... I agree that it would be very different if the cva could be paid .. not sure how much difference the increased gates make when taken against the reduced prices this season .... I don't know that the Wise compo is in yet ... I think I read somewhere that was still to come (I think Bates is not the quickest of payers) ... also even with the money in we would have to offload players before we could buy anymore because of the league two wage cap rule.
Batch ... I kinda have a list .. but was going to wait until the end of the week to see what else was suggested (and how often!!) before deciding .. I only want to ask about 10 questions ... because any more would certainly get ignored (in my opinion). Id say a payment that was due in June would be a "current commitment" :roll: The CVA is being negotiated. That doesnt mean they can fuck around with our club by not paying installments which they are legally obliged (sp?) to make!

you have posted for quite a while now and make some good points but i still dont fully understand what is you actually want. Im not being rude but the impressions i get from your posts are the following You support the current regime you support the trust you dont have confidence in the board you dont have confidence in the trust Could you clear up for me what it is you actually hope will happen with our club. To make it easier do you want the current regime to carry on or would you like the trust backed consortium to take over?

Please let's not turn this into a 25 page epic then shall we ? Why not Fred? I'm not doing anything at the moment and I can't go anywhere as I haven't got a car! Maverick (The irony of that name is so obvious!) Thanks for your reply and your sentiments regarding my unfortunate mishap. I still feel you have an agenda.

red macca ... I may well be wrong ... I thought I had read/heard it .. if so I am sure someone else will confirm .. otherwise .. sorry ... but either way ..... we are at our wage cap (or close last time they told us) so unless we offload players we will not be able to bring anyone new in.
SwindonTartanArmy .. at the time of the meeting the CVA was already being renegotiated so there technically was and is no "current" commitment ... as soon as it has been renegotiated or fails .. then the amount will become due either right away if it fails .. or else whenever they agree the next payment will be due .... I do wonder how long these things take to renegotiate though!!

Im with herthab with this one i still think you are up to something.I wont judge you for that as thats your choice but if you are hoping to sway a few heads back in the current boards direction you are on the wrong site imo
