so many threads been brough up in last 24 hours. What have i missed? is there some scandel going on inside the trust? Can i be narrowed down the latest news please
No to the selling of Trust Shares. We should maintain that position and try and influence. We should be taking the right legal advice and acting on it. If there are a means of using the legal advice to gain some form of financial compensation or similar this may allow us a battle fund . And should it true that the Americans are looking to dilute the share holdings, we may be in position to increase ours. Im no expert on the sort of stuff and I'm sure others will comment if it feasible or not? The point being we maintain or try to increase our stake. That has been an aim and should remain one the aims IMO.
Also, we should be fund raising at every opportunity. There are 19 home games a season so theres start.
Why not sponsor the junior leagues in South Wales, that in turn may into a positive means of recruitment as well spreading the word and quite possibly some additional revenue from new members. My kids play in eh junior leagues and I've never once seen any mention of the Trust at games, festivals etc. Why don't we make better use of Social Media, For example, A You Tube channel to communicate and open up debate. Why not have a family membership?
Uniting the fans and moving forward together is the only choice we have. I am just not convinced we can be united with the current regime.
The other thing is people can go on about the Trust being a closed shop as much as they want but they've been screaming out for people to get on board every year for the last 15 years when it's election time and they've held an AGM every year for the last 15 years too that hardly any f*cker turns up to.

Correct.
How can it be a closed shop when, every two years every single member is eligible to put themselves forward for election.
Too many people on here are just saying stuff for no reason other than to stir it seems.

I think with all the flak the Trust board have had to endure the past few years, it's about time they morphed into a sort of political party. That way other 'parties' could be formed to challenge them at elections in a first past the post system. That way no individual who challenges the way the trust is run would have to stand alone against them for election, but they would be a group/party with their very own manifesto. Yep sure sounds crazy, but it really is put up or shut up. Hell. Shaky and Spratty could even start their very own Monster raving loony thingy!
I don't think the entire Trust board needs to go. I genuinely believe that without Phil at the helm the Trust will probably cease to exist. It does need new blood on the board though and I agree that those who stood for election but weren't successful should have been the first to be co-opted.
It's one thing to rip into the trust especially Phil and quite another to supply an alternative.
Not one of the detractors on here have come up with owt of substance.
The main pursuit is blood letting.
The main issue, money , who s made what and how and as I explained to lifey yesterday ,envy is as big a motivating factor as the duplicity of board individuals.
I fear the worst when Phil and Ux digest all this.

It really is a case of put up or shut up.
I don't I have a lot of hope once Phil gets home this weekend and I fully expect something to be said.
You're right though,if Phil,Ux etc were to walk away I truly believe we could be in worse shit than Petty.
Shouldn't be swept under that carpet though something needs to happen.

I want the good to stay and to be untainted with reputations intact and to be in a position to take the war (whichever means necessary) to the f#cking sell-outs and give them a right headache.
There was some trouble wasn't there! 3-2 loss? Didn't we have John Solako playing for us?
Wasn't there myself but I remember it well as was reported in the news and papers etc. The build up to the home game was interesting and a few greek restaurants had closed for night if i remember correctly.
We should have won that game and the tie!
The day of the game wasn't that bad, but after that loads of jacks arrested mayhem.
Glad we got out. HJ Tenko and JVZ were all there too. Photo in Toozeys book apparently. Swans had a right old firm out there back then - as the saying goes. 😂

FFS - lessons will have been learnt and the Trust will emerge stronger for sure. The last thing we need now is a series of resignations as a knee jerk reaction to some legitimate criticism. The alternative is ................... ???????????????

I don't think you'd hear this sort of speak on any other media site other than his own, and that's why fundamentally the new Chairman and Board must have no internet sites.
I hate what the Trust has become and who has been running it. The business types, the site owners, the cronies.
It stinks!

Well I certainly don't think Phil Sumbler should resign because without his expertise going forward I believe we'd be well and truly f*cked plus I obviously know how much hard work HC puts in.
Anyway Christopher can I ask you two serious questions?
1. Why do you say *Stuart Mac should stay,hasn't he got any knowledge of what's been going on like HC,PS & JW then? Or is he completely in the dark over it all? I'm genuinely interested to why you're singling him out.
2. If you achieve your aim of decimating the current Trust board will you then be putting your good self forward to become part of the new board or at least helping in the future?
*This is in no way a dig at Stu because he's a very nice man.
1. Stu Mac has been mentioned to be as a real stand up guy by someone who's opinion I trust and respect. I personally don't know him but would have been willing to give him the chance on that recommendation alone.
2. If we all can see decisive action, resignations where appropriate and the dead wood gone, I would be willing to get involved.

It's pathetic he's sat wherever he is reading this message board and others deciding what to do based on how much outcry there is.
It's weak and it shows them all up for what they are.
Can you please explain what material difference there it would make in him dealing this after he has had his family holiday rather than interrupting it?
So why did you suggest he stays in the first place then?
Because he didn't know that Stu and Coozey are big mates, although it's common knowledge that they have been for years and years and years. Which just goes to show that for all the wind he's been puffing about, he hasn't got a fvckin clue what he's talking about!
