Congratulations on the new arrival, Chris - hope mother and baby (and father) are doing well. ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘
I guess you'll have other things on your mind for a while but just on the 25%, the Trust has said on more than one occasion that they wrote to the other major shareholders requesting exactly that but never even got the courtesy of a reply.
"The letter of the 18th March was not the only communication from the Trust which was met with silence by the selling shareholders. In order to better protect the Trust’s position within the club, a request was made to each of the selling shareholders that they should sell the Trust a small fraction of their shareholdings in order to take our stake up to 25%. Such an act would have completed and cemented the legacy of the previous shareholders and added weight to their often repeated desire to protect the football club. Again, the Trust received no response to that letter."
It may not have been an option in the eyes of the sellers on the basis that it would have reduced the value of their shares but it's disingenuous to say that it shouldn't be discussed.
how were the trust going to pay for these shares?

SCSA MEETING TONIGHT!! on 17:14 - Feb 3 by Neath_Jack
I said this right at the birth of that group, minus the pricks bit. I haven't changed my mind either.
Reading the Tweets from the meeting was pitiful too.
I admire them for wanting to, and for actually doing something, but it isn't what we need at the moment.
Same for me.
When Phil Sumbler, of all people, who I have brought this up with him personally, decided to set up this group it just stunk the house out of egos and walking all over the other group.
They clearly thought nothing of the Union, they wanted something for themselves. And the only difference is Phil Sumbler and Matt Griffiths have been feeding the SCSA information from the Trust.

You asked me what I wanted from the Trust as you think it's at odds with what I am preaching for - peace at match times. I have asked them individually to back away from the SCSA, to follow up officially their request to remove Jenkins from post and to report back to their members (the fans) what exactly the Americans said about this. If the statement comes back that the Americans want him there for x, y z period long, then we will know more than we did before.
Now, we don't know and the cowards on the Trust are allowing groups to fester, to fight and for potential issues to develop that could massively affect our Premier League status.
Once again, the Trust are nothing more than bastard pathetic.
So in case you wanted all this spelt out....
1. DEMAND A MEETING WITH PEARLMAN TO DISCUSS THEIR STATEMENT TO REMOVE JENKINS 2. DEMAND A STATEMENT FROM THE CLUB IN DIFECT RESPONSE TO THIS REQUEST TO REMOVE HIM 3. INFORM THE FANS SO WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THE PICTURE LOOKS LIKE 4. DEAL WITH THE OUTCOME ACCORDINGLY.

I am the resurrection and i am the light. I couldn’t ever bring myself to hate you as i’d like

The Trust board met with Pearlman not long after the statement he h called for Jenkins to go was issued. The issue was discussed, Pearlman clearly supports Jenkins’ position at the club.

Demand a Club statement so the fans know EXACTLY what they think and WHY.
That's not hard to do is it? Come on FFS where's the bollox??
* PEARLMAN - "WE HAVE PUBLICLY ASKED FOR JENKINS TO STEP DOWN, WE NEED AN OFFICIAL RESPONSE TO THIS OR WE MAKE A STATEMENT TO SAY YOU WON"T"
"WE WANT REASONS, WE WANT TIMESCALES AND WE WANT TO KNOW WHY YOU HAVE BRUSHED UP THIS PUBLIC STATEMENT FROM A LARGE SHAREHOLDER UNDER THE CARPET"
......... then report it back. It's as simple as that.
You are the Trust, we are the fans, we still own 21% of this and we need to be listened to as the fans are fighting among themselves.
Sort it out.

I thought you were behind Jenkins now?
Like I've REPEATEDLY said over and over and over again.
I couldn't care one way or the other about the person. I care about the impact on him not being here and who would oversee football matters. I care about the fact all the groups have no clue what they want really, especially for example if they got their wish and Jenkins was to go.
I also care very much about giving Carlos our total unity in his massive battle against the drop.
And I care most of all that the Trust CONTINUES to FAIL us over and over again.
We need a Club statement -- We need the Trust to step up and become the one and only supporters group we can look up to.
You should all be very much ashamed of yourself you have allowed these groups to gain province while you quiver in the bushes.

Fair enough, you’re entitled to your view. As I said to you yesterday, I have no issue with the SCSA and the Union, they can fill a void that sometimes corporate responsibility precludes the Trust from filling. I genuinely wish you’d got on the Trust board though. By now you’d fully realise how hard it is to get a decision on anything, let alone a quick decision. And you’d have made the meetings more fun.

By now I would have gripped Macdonald and Alan by the scruff and gone rogue.
You do it. Just get it out there and take responsibility for the whole Club.
Fed up of you lot pussyfooting behind dinosaurs.
Once again, cheers for the baby shouts. Very much appreciated - thanks x
