The one truly bad thing the Jed/Ged legacy has left us all, is the knowledge that the Trust is pointless. If Jed/Ged fucking Mcwhatever can waltz into football club ownership with a quid, why the hell couldn't they?

Cos unlike Jed they wouldn't take on a football club without having funding in place.
Plus, and to channel Mr Redknapp for a second, after the Black years the Trust was down to the bare bones.
I think we'll see a lot more from them during this season, they went to the court case, and build up a decent dialogue with Power. The new Trust board (most of whom got involved post Jeds arrival) know the ball is in the their court now, action is needed to make it a viable relevant organisation, hopefully they'll be able to silence some of the nay sayers over the next 12 months.

And they wouldn't take on a club without being able to do due dilligence either, and time was not on their side to get the required people lined up that would have been needed to run a FC the size of Swindon

The only way this season is going to be a success is if fans get behind the club in an active and financial way. No matter what your opinion of the Trust, them publicly supporting the clubs owners and pro-actively encouraging others to do the same can only be a good thing, particularly in light of the harsh truths about finances for the coming year.

I honestly hope so too. There is a place for a decent, well run Trust in Swindon. |
