64. New Supporters committee could ask !! You mean be told what to do

[ironlion82]

The Trust have over 1200 Members which is approx 25% plus of the fan base.
If only a quarter of the Members joined the scheme and put £10 a month in then it would mean £36k a year to buy shares
£36k a year would pay at least one players wages !
And the Club don’t want this !!
As for knocking the Trust they played a major part in saving our Club and that must not be forgotten.

[ironlion82]

So when are the Trust who have over 1200 Members and also hold Shares going to get the same recognition by the Club ?
Seems the Club are all over Unity Group who have how many Members ?

[ironlion82]

See UNITY all over Facebook meeting with Michelle pushing their raffles and scratch cards etc and the Club embracing them but they will not engage with the Trust for a massive input of money !!

[ironlion82]

The Club have constantly said that it is part of the Community and wants to be a Community Club.
The town and fans have got behind the Club like never before with donations and free work etc which the Club are more than happy to accept.
The Trust proposal seems to me a chance for this to continue but with the Fans getting something back and that is a stake in their Club but be it a very minor one.

[ironlion82]

The Board have short memories. They seem to forget all the work and effort put in by the Trust to help save our Club.
They seem to welcome outsiders with schemes and events to raise money more than they do a group of well over a thousand members many of whom have supported the Iron for many years
They embraced a weekender event that made how much money ? more than a scheme to guarantee an income !

[ironlion82]

The Board were all over the Fans when things were more than desperate.
In fact I heard the Trust played a big part in helping to save the Club.
Now things are going a bit better but still far from good seems things have gone back to them and us !
The Board seem happy to bring outsiders in with money raising schemes but won’t accept money from fans many with lots of years supporting the Club.
Baffling !

[ironlion82]

Has it been announced how much money the Club made from the Weekender Event ?

[ironlion82]

Will local businesses and potential investors want to get involved with a Club attracting these sort of people and also a Club allowing these sort of people to be involved. There must be someone at the Club allowing these people to seem to have free run of our Club. That person or persons need to be gone from our Club.

Who has got the Club associated with all this lot ?
Who is responsible for allowing all this and these type of people having access into our Club.?
We have had a great season and the town behind the Club like never before but all this could be undone by headlines like this.
Scunthorpe United is a community Club and we need who ever allowed this gone.

[ironlion82]

Was told that 18000 tickets sold ?
Also told that every penny made goes to the Club and any losses nothing to do with the Club. Is that right ?

[ironlion82]

£300 k Loss !!!! Would the Club have to foot the bill if that’s true.?

[ironlion82]

This Stadium weekender as I understood it is costing the Club nothing to put on and they benefit from any profits.
Let’s hope it’s a better event than the last one in the 1960s which was as I remember a bit of a disaster and had a lot of the top bands of that era.

[ironlion82]

Can’t see all the ticket holders turning up at Hereford after todays performance and results.

Looks like the fund raising has restarted. Has someone given him some Hereford tickets ?
I wonder if the Flag is back up as well !

[ironlion82]

Soon as Mr Maw does not get his way or what he wants he spits his dummy out.
He does what he does he says for the Club and it is his choice and no one forced him to but it does not mean he is anymore entitled to a ticket than any of the other Iron Fans who have missed out.
I presume he will be raffling a flag and flagpole shortly !

[ironlion82]

Surely the policy has been all season for away tickets to be available to first come first served.
In my opinion they should not have changed their policy for this last game

[ironlion82]

Seems to think he’s entitled to tickets due to all his fundraising
What about the Fans who support his fund raising who did nt get a ticket. They have just as much right to them.
Surely has no more right than any other Iron Fan who missed out.
The tickets went on general sale so could have got tickets via that
Anyway he’s taking his flag down and stopping fund raising so he said
Also has a hotel room in Hereford if anyone after one !

Went at half time to the kiosk to try out the sausage rolls. None left. People ordering burgers and waiting for them to be cooked. 3 or 4 staff only and run of their feet.
Chaotic would best describe it.
Don’t know how a Club like ours year after year cannot sort catering out.
This lot needs a lot of improvement after what I experienced on Saturday

[ironlion82]

Notice the Unity Group were not invited to the talks on Monday morning.
May be to busy organising the Easter Party !

[ironlion82]

Did some of that £18.000 go on Xmas Party and subsidising Away Travel ?
What was the amount actually given to the Club ?
The Trust are very open about how many members they have. I wonder what the current membership of Unity is ?

[ironlion82]

Most of the posts on the Unity Fundraising Group on Scunny Fans Facebook site are all Stuart Maw.
He’s back !

[ironlion82]

Was the Meeting well attended last night to set up the Group ?

[ironlion82]

See Sue and the Unity Mob are making a comeback on the Facebook Group !

[ironlion82]

See Sue and the Crew back on line !
Here we go again !
Is the amount raised before Xmas Parties etc or after ?

[ironlion82]

The Trust did a lot in helping to secure the Ground and the future of our Club but do not go on Social Media telling the world what they have done.
Talking of supporters Clubs was it called Unity or something like that seems to have disappeared just like it’s Chairman !

That Sponsorship should read Scunthorpe United Fans. That’s where I presume the money has come from
It seems to me all this is about one man’s ego !
I thought the money raised was just given to Scunthorpe ?
By doing this he has actually stopped a third party possibly coming in and sponsoring which would have brought even more money into the Club.

Surely the UNITY Chairman should be there to answer the questions ?
Find it funny that’s it adjacent to Trust Corner , the Group they have been slagging off every chance they get after all the brilliant work the Trust quietly did to keep us a football Club.
It’s him who’s caused all the problems from what I can see so he should answer

All his posts seem to have disappeared of Scunny Fans Site ?

[ironlion82]

Never seen this video before.
How the hell can he go on like he has about comments someone made when he puts on things like this.
Backing and praising Hilton and calling fans who could see what was happening parasites.
He was 100% a Hilton man ! No wonder he always has a go about the Trust !
