Stateside Jack's meeting with club on 11:24 - Feb 17 with 1632 views | The_E20 | So you just think it sounds like PR? Unless we know if it is or isn’t then I don’t see how we can have an issue. Bad decisions happen at every single club. They happened before the Americans arrived, they happened before Jenkins arrived, they will happen long after the Americans have gone. We don’t have to look any further than our own Trust to see examples of organisations making calamitous errors after calamitous errors - yet they are allowed to get away with it. I don’t see many errors made at club level currently. Do you? I think it’s entirely informative that we know a positive meeting took place. It seems people are more annoyed they don’t know something that someone else does that they feel are less deserving due to geographical location. Don’t the Trust tell us things all the time regarding meetings or legal stuff that they can’t share with us? I don’t see many going mad at them for telling us about stuff where they cannot share the details. This view only seems to be working one way; The problem with the current position of the fans is that it is so wild that logic is seen as the enemy. As soon as logic is seen as extreme bias, you are in trouble. | | | |

Stateside Jack's meeting with club on 11:29 - Feb 17 with 1617 views | The_E20 | Or you are underestimating them? I don’t see to many people having one single post turn into double figure threads on a constant basis without ever lowering myself to vile abuse, maybe it’s just coincide? Considering your complete lack of judgement skills since joining the Trust I am happy to be on my side of the fence in this one. No offence intended. | | | |
Stateside Jack's meeting with club on 11:32 - Feb 17 with 1612 views | exiledclaseboy | None taken. I’d argue that your threads invariably run into multiple pages not because your views resonate with so many people, but because most people disagree with you and post as such. In fact, that’s self evident from reading threads you’re involved in. No offence meant. Completely agree that you’re never abusive, that’s clearly to your credit. [Post edited 17 Feb 2019 11:34]

Stateside Jack's meeting with club on 11:38 - Feb 17 with 1594 views | The_E20 | Some disagree sure. Some disagree and then resort to bile once they are forced to reconsider that position after they realise they cannot back it up - it’s not a comfortable feeling for them, some agree out of hand and some get involved purely after previous encounters where they have been forced to reconsider their position reluctantly. All of this isn’t even counting the numerous people that belong in each group they never comment. But the theme always goes back to one point - my initial post. It resonates. But I would prefer to discuss the topic with all due respect. Because this will be used as a stick against me no doubt the longer this conversation continues. [Post edited 17 Feb 2019 11:39]

Stateside Jack's meeting with club on 11:44 - Feb 17 with 1564 views | jasper_T | Much of the furore over the NDA seems based on the idea that Stateside Jacks were meant to ask tough questions and report the answers. But they're a fan group not reporters. The intention was to speak to the powers that be and have the opportunity to voice their concerns. | | | |

Stateside Jack's meeting with club on 11:49 - Feb 17 with 1542 views | _ | What??? He's replying to everything that comes his way. You don't like what he's saying because in your head it's not what you want to hear, but I'm guessing it wasn't long ago that you had posters of Huw Jenkins on your wall and you were shutting down debate when fans like myself and him were calling him out. Is this what it's truly about? You're embarrassed? | |

Stateside Jack's meeting with club on 11:50 - Feb 17 with 1529 views | The_E20 | Eh? When have I ever said that. My posts have people agree, disagree and those that feel themselves questioning their initial disagreement due to the points I put across. My posts resonate with people, which annoys others on the other side... hence the long threads. Not a hard concept, ECB. I hope you aren’t this cumbersome in Trust affairs? | | | |
