Spirit of '69

[Ƭ̵̬̊: The Artist Formerly Known as CWIG]

Just need £100k or something in a bank account don't you to pass the fit and proper persons? I seem to recall Power quickly loaned Jed it so he could worm his way in.

Back on topic, is anyone wearing their orange hat to the Fleetwood game or to ColU tonight?

I ordered a spirit of 69 hat but as it won’t be here for the Fleetwood game, and having unsuccessful searched the loft for my Bill Power version, have also ordered one elsewhere that will be in time for the weekend, to ensure I’ve got one on

Well there have been interested parties. Be interesting to know if they managed a look at the books or not.

What was the outcome of the Trust being shown the books (it coincided with me getting pissed off with it all and losing interest), looking back at their website there seems to be a confirmation that they were shown something but no conclusions?

Didnt the Tryst look at the books and the trust guys resigned soon after?

They eventually got in I think but it sounds like it fell short of expectations in terms of what they saw. Was never going to be a full breakdown was it. Same admin expenses x number of millions, I expect.

Anthony constantly kicked the can down the road and delayed for weeks on end. Then on the Friday before he was due to appear on the OSC On the Sofa, he finally offered days in which someone from the Trust was able to go in. He then went on the OSC and said the Trust have been offered times to come in but it hasn’t happened yet.

Technically true but twisted as he constantly delayed and ignored the multiple requests to arrange a suitable date and time.

When the person went in, they were shown multiple spreadsheets on a screen but wasn’t allowed to take any data away to analyse properly, like you would normally expect to review the books. Anthony Hall was present in all conversations and was watching everything that was shown and heard everything that was said

I’m pretty sure there was at least one other conversation which all ended in mystery with a statement that was emailed to members late one evening written and sent out by Trust Chairman without anyone other that the person who went in outlining the conclusion to the matter and that Fair Game was taking over the books analysis.

All Clem ever wanted was for the Trust to confirm he wasn’t taking money out of the club. No idea what any of the numbers were but what I do know is that the books were a mess. I have no idea why the sudden and mysterious ending to the whole thing ended up like it did, it still smells whiffy to me and wouldn’t be surprise if pressure was applied from the Club onto certain individuals to wrap it up and that person caved into brushing it under the carpet ASAP.

To this day, I have no idea what was really seen, what opinion the person with years of financial experience could determine from what they saw and it was never discussed again at the board. When they were pressed to provide any insight to what they saw or what the next steps were going to be, the board got the reply “I’m too busy with work to give you an update”, feeling us all stuck between a rock and a hard place with the person we were all depending on, melting like an ice cube from the pressure of the day job whilst fans were screaming for an update.

Utterly stitched up and an utter embarrassment to the Trust, actioned by one person that just did whatever they wanted and the vast majority dared not challenge that persons actions.

Who in the trust was behind the tweet that time about the people in the background of the club and stuff?

  That tweet s a funny story… I can confirm that it wasn’t me though.The person responsible I believe floats around in the background to these forums still under a different username.. Maybe they want to step forward to claim it?

It was my tweet they originally replied to!

Exactly what I expected. Sad. I was arguing with some tit on FB the other day that said the trust had reviewed the books every month. You can't make it up.

Well we can't.

The Morfuni defenders on the otherhand...

I wonder if todays Holloway rant will put a few more on the protest numbers next Saturday.

For me he is just another fall guy and smokescreen for this ownership to throw under a bus..

Drain the swamp and get all these clowns out!
