Here’s a thought

[64]

On the PA yesterday the club announcer was rattling on about £10K worth of donations, I think from the Disunity group . This on top of an early £4k investment from the trust and a £13k more recent investment which didn’t get a mention at all .Add these to what was raised By the Iron bru led appeal and these events alone have have seen fans groups put more in than the board paid Hilton for the club. Now we’re being asked to pay for a pitch .Perhaps the board ,3 of which were gifted a quarter of the club by Michelle, might want to dilute their shareholding and give a fifth of the club for a fans representative to control. Or they could just take advantage of the good will of pliable idiots.

Yes. I am disgusted that the club hasn’t acknowledged or thanked the Trust publicly for its fund raising work. It’s insulting and disrespectful. I shall not be contributing to this current crowd funder or any other unless the club’s current owners (i) set out clearly and openly their plans to operate sustainably and (ii) bring the Trust on board as a partner.

All the messaging from the club seems to be that the Trust are an entity to ‘put up with’, not courted. They save that for the narcissists, who appear to be breeding like rabbits.

Feel pretty much the same as above as when it comes to donations / fund raising etc the club do seem to take some sections of the fan base for granted whilst courting others.

Fans being asked to dig deep AGAIN ,,,, im sure an update on the clubs current finances with regard to outstanding debts including loans the BovD have put in and want paid back would be greatly appreciated by the grass roots fans, i was under the impression Michelle (legend) said the club was close to clearing all debt some time ago.. maybe i miss heard her comments ??

I was thinking exactly this DM .. where are all these camera hugging super fans coming from as their numbers are increasing by the week.. Mr Maw and PD started the ball rolling and now the flock is growing.
