I think they should add a section known as 'the fight forum'..........I reckon it'd become the busiest section of the site  Cheesy

what a great read this thread is!
i dont think a protest was needed on saturday.and despite what some may say, the numbers that have taken part in protests have been small,and the effects minimal imo.
only money will have the effect we all want and for now we must leave it to the legal people.
the balls rolling now as far as i'm aware so i think we need to be patient. i doubt anything will be sorted by the seasons end,protests or not now.

lets just bask in the glory of our impending promotion and let the legal dudes do their jobs.unless things take a turn for the worse of course

We can do no more arriba IMHO, the protests are good, and if there was a half a season left there would be some virtue - but thus far albeit in a very roundabout way the club are playing ball after a fashion, it needs to be left to see if the NDA is the start of what we really want to happen.  If come next season still isn't happening then I suspect protests will be more vociferous - because there's a damn sight more chance the on pitch things won't be soem hunky dory, and the average fan will be more upset IMHO.

I'd love to see an actual Sonic Vs Boeta fight... that'd be ace.

I also love punchy, drink-enduced Alan. Always makes me chuckle.

hahaha this thread is brilliant. a bunch of jumped-up idiots trying to play nelson mandela-come-bill gates. hilariously ridiculous


Or a bunch of people that just care about the club. Alan and myself won't fall out over this, it's just a difference of opinion.

I look forward to the next time you stick your oar in once everything is done and dusted Boeta.

yes but caring doesn't get results. it's about actually having the skills to take it forward as a viable organisation. i'm not surprised the board have never really taken the trust seriously when people behave like this. i read sonic is standing for the trust board; and whilst i think he is an intelligent and articulate lad i'm not sure he has the business acumen or leadership skills that surely any board director must surely have. does anyone at the trust?

Boeta, compare and contrast the board's efforts at securing a ground redevelopment (got nowhere) with the considerable headway made by the Trust. Then you can get back to sneering at those who do make the effort.

fair point

although being better than the board isn't exactly tough though is it

i think i have every right to sneer, what sort of business person conducts themselves in the way some have in here?

You're right, I have no business skills nor experience in leading people but that's not what I'm applying for the board for. My reasons for applying is to become more active in helping the Trust aside from the Consortium; which I'll have nothing to do with, so you needn't worry about it going "up shit creek".

I'm genuinely surprised that anyone would have a dig at me, or any other individual, for putting ourselves forward for election to the Trust board. There are currently too few Trust board members for the amount of work that is required, the more the merrier.

Exactly what is my place, Boeta? If you know yours perhaps you can share with me what you consider my place to be. I'm not trying to be the next Nelson Mandela, I simply want what is best for STFC.

There is a big distinction between the trust board and the club board - ultimately the consortium if/when they get in are all about Mike Wilkes, Bill and Phil and any other associates they have - they have promised a fan on the board - perhaps from the trust, but the trust began merely as a forum for intersted fans to take a more active role in the non-football side of the club IIRC. I assume for a fan to join the board it would be some sort of fans vote.

The Trust is a fans' organisation, made up of and run by fans. So, yes, you have every right to sneer at your fellow fans if you wish to. Or you could try doing something constructive about the ongoing mess the club is still in, promotion or not.
