Steps to Reform the Trust. 14:15 - Feb 23 with 7502 viewsTheResurrection

It's February going into March and it will soon be time for elections to the Trust Board once again.

I think it's fair to say the public perception of the Trust is probably at its lowest at this very moment in time with a string, of what looks like from the outside, calamitous failures over the last few years.

So what have we all done about this? It's fair to say we've done our fair share of moaning, on here in particular, but if we want change, what can we really do to effectthis.

There was hope with new faces joining the Trust Board that there would be some noticeable differences by now, but sadly, at least so far, that's far from the reality.

We all know Cudey and Lisa are good sorts and fair people. We thank them fully for stepping up and we know they'd offer something tangible and beneficial to the organisation.

But, is this enough? They've not been able to do anything about the latest farce the Trust has got itself into and from their careful posts on here they also seem too keen not to upset anyone over perhaps standing up and telling it like it is.

The majority rules mantra they've adopted isn't 'conducive to a fair and open Trust Board that we know are acting in our ibest nterests, as Chad pointed out earlier. The hard core of Trust people who should not be anywhere near the place due to the ridiculous amount of time already served, have got the place sewn up.

This needs to change. This needs to change right now.

These people are NOT the Trust, we all are,what every single Swans fan.

I implore the new Board members to make this stand right now and act decisively. It's time

We could make it very clear on here who the majority support like the Res.

We could also make it very clear on hear who not to vote for at all costs like Mr tail wagging dog.

We could then all do our very best to mobilise non Planet Swans readers who we know are Trust members as to who to vote for.

Given the low turnout figures we could probably seriously influence the election.

Assuming those 'in control' don't simply rig the vote. And yes, I absolutely believe they would. They would prefer an outbreak of the clap on the Trust Board than someone like Chris

Everyone one of them from the Chairman down can be voted off at the elections they hold every year and have held every year since the start.
If people can’t be arsed that ain’t their problem.

VOTE THE RES.


Is this the same Res that wants to keep Mr Jenkins as DOF?

Why was Parkhouse voted off?

Fans were united in 2001/2 when The Trust was set up.
Fans are not united now, that is why the Trust won't progress.

Are the Union/SCSA still going, they seem to be quiet on social media.

The chairman’s job requires someone with the time and (now more than ever) the expertise to devote to it. I have neither. I’ve been genuinely surprised at how much time it’s taken up and I’m not as heavily involved in the details as some because I’m not involved in the sub group looking at the the share deal, for example.

In answer to your second question - I don’t know yet.

For the deal vote it was. I don’t know if they are so rigorous for their elections. Anyone over 5 years, particularly the last five years should simply stand aside if there are other candidates anyway. There used to be a lot of moaning about how thankless and time consuming it was as a selfless act. So Taildog, Lewis, McDonald, Hamer et all should just f*ck off assuming there are reasonable candidates wanting on. Matt could go back on for one, instead of one of the ‘let’s just take any scraps’ cretins. Yes Vivvy divvy I’m looking at you.

The current chairman has the expertise?? Close the gates and try and protect his position and the status quo? I suppose “one can only do ones best”.

You have what is totally lacking amongst the jobsworths and that is a sense of connection with what is needed now, not in 1892 or 2002. Ideal.

I’m not saying you should want to do it though, I get that.
