I found this line in the minutes more than a little astonishing:
"We had the American owners at a Fans Forum on the 4th April. They answered questions from the floor for around 90 minutes ranging on a host of subjects, but, it was surprising that the mood was still
raw as to how the Sale was conducted..."
Surprised that the mood was still raw as to how the sale was conducted?
Really?!
F*ck my eyes mun.  |  | | |

For me it is what is the quantum of management fees being extracted out of the club' - given 100% will be paid to the Yanks.
What is the cumulative position of management fees since the Yanks's acquisition.
Interesting that the Trust cash balance went down due to Directors liability insurance. Maybe indicative that the Trust Board are up for the fight. Alternatively might be big standard insurance they take out each year. | | | |

I know that like me, you're a big supporter of the trust. But if this is the type of stuff they're churning out, then it wont be too long before the trust exist as a committee only. And that would be a real shame.  |  |

It's not what I expected to read that's for sure.

Fair play, at the time of this post there are a few 'big guns' logged in who love subjects such as this, but none of them are commenting?  | |

This is why minutes should be properly scrutinised before publication. There's no need for the word "surprising". |  |

So it should have read "but the mood was still
raw as to how the sale was conducted..." ?
Makes sense, but still makes the trust a laughing stock if that's what is in the minutes during the current climate. I wouldn't make an error like that after sinking 15 cans of bow! Laugh if you like but it ain't funny. shocking stuff.  | |

'not' 'surprising' makes no difference to what word was added or omitted in error. Personally i'd just wish the trust would come out with the truth. And the truth is "We've been fvcked over, there's nothing we can do about it, and we're keeping our fingers crossed that the Yanks allow us to have some say in matters that mean fvck all really". I'd certainly have more respect for them than all this fannying around over legal action that ain't gonna happen. | |

If the legal opinion gives no leverage for any compromise to gain legal protections or any action to gain redress then, yep, it's pretty much game over.
Hard to escape the feeling that what you say is true,,,a model that was only fit for purpose when everyone was on the same side, that is now holed beneath the waterline because of disingenuous opportunists' inner c*ntishness. | |

And that's no shame on the trust at all. Just be best if they came out and said it as it is, rallied their members and set a mandate as to how they can move forward and be a voice that our 21% shareholding deserves. | |

Any response to this from the trust? | | | |

What's your problem?
The Trust board issued a record of their meeting. Members objected to what was said. And the Trust board simply expunged it from the record as if it never happened. Problem solved!
Similarly the Trust board wish to build bridges and retain their cozy relationship with the club, whereas the membership generally want action to redress the wrong they have suffered. So the Trust say they are doing something but take no actions whatsoever.
The pattern should be well established by now. It would be nice to be surprised for once, but I'm certainly not holding my breath. | |

That's about it in a nutshell. And the sad thing is that this surprises no one any more. | |

If they did edit that out then it really is appalling. Are they really that disillusioned to the general feeling among their members? |  |

And my stepping forward to take care of the PR on behalf of the Trust was ignored.
I am at a loss after this showing. |  |
