That didn't take long:

Of course, I can't prove he's wrong.

In fairness he will be gutted if it isn't.

He will have to go back to supporting Cheltenham and stop trolling the gullible

Good news, hopefully it can be agreed and long may it continue, can only be a good thing for stfc and the future of the football club.

Out of interest have discussions been held with Power or with Clem, or with both

Have to say that with what has happened at a lot of clubs in recent years the ground needs to be at least part owned by the Trust/Supporters. Unless you can find a way of preventing anyone buying the club to just sell off the ground & pocket the cash.

I have no idea whether Power would do this if he could have, but we all know that Jed would have done it and so would some of our less trustworthy boards of the past.

... but club keen to have better and regular input from fans

WTF has happened?! Is Power OK?

We are in uncharted optimistic waters. I'm not sure I like change Smiley

Right now I'm very optimistic over this. I'm sure the Trust, Supporters club and ??Eady Estate?? will be careful enough to make sure the purchase, should it happen, will benefit the club post Power

That's a point. Will this encourage the Eady estate to loosen their purse-strings?

I hope so, I can't think of a better tribute to the man than helping the club buy its ground.

Would also provide a bit of confidence that its all going to be OK too,  the Eady lawyers won't be release any money on good faith Smiley

Also, apologies if its in this thread already, but have The Trust said whether a community share scheme is still on the cards yet?

I assume so, they are going to have to raise the cash somehow?

He's really not very bright.

At first he says it's BS, and then he says he trusts the trust. So is it BS or not?

Its early days yet and full details will be released as things evolve, but ultimately the trust would put in half the money and the club the other 50% to own the ground.
There are potential plans to then invest in the county ground to improve it
The Trust will work with the club on this and have input into the plans, plus have a position on the board.
Ultimately it means fans will own a share of the county ground with the club in a 50/50 deal.

Fuckin' ell! It's Fred Titmus!

Superb work by the Trust, doubtless still a lot of i's to be dotted etc but taken at face value (and as Reg says, I think you have to) this is the best news this club has had in a long time. Hopefully more people will now back/get back on board with the Trust's Red Army Fund malarkey

Not sure what I'm more pleased about tbh, the announcement itself or the resumption of Statement Friday Smiley

He’s a troll, and not a very good one at that
