Has the trust settlement actually happened ? 14:56 - Mar 29 with 832 viewsKeithHaynes

All I hear and read are ex trust members ridiculing the current incumbents.
Anyone with a greater knowledge have the latest ?

How the Trust failed to sell even 1p of their holding during the 7 years in the Premier league is the question that needs asking. Excuses will not do.

With inflation at 6% and rising the Trust must identify ways of investing their cash. With £880,000 in the bank it will half in value over the next ten years.

Would it be fair to say the club has halved in value over the last 4 years. So the trust halving their value over the next 10 years they are ahead of the board.

The performance of the board is something that can be discussed on another thread.

The Trust have suffered negative "triple bubble" grief.

Their cash is devaluing (by inflation currently 6%)

The values of their shares dropped (by relegation by approx 70%)

Their % percentage holding in the club is reportedly dropping (by dilution by 23%)

The board members who sold re-invested their cash almost certainly some of it in the Convertible loan note. Buying club shares on the cheap. The Trust? Not buying. Why not?

Having over 1000 members is no use if they are "along for the ride". Better that brains are switched on and questions are being asked. The SCST are a on a one way ticket to oblivion through lack of attention to important investment matters.

Past management have no right to criticize the new board. They chose the route of legal action and it could not be delivered when push came to shove.

Ignoring the old now irrelevant ground covered by other posters.

To the OP - this stems from the deal not having been put through companies house yet - apparently now well out of compliance.

So ex board members are pointing this out and are asking of the current whether the deal has actually been completed. It does fly in the face of the urgency that the board suggested the deal needed to be completed by.

The suspicion is obviously heightened by the current boards wall of silence on the matter. If it's an administrative delay why not just come out and say it?

Perhaps the board members who post here could shed some light?

So the certain court action hasn’t taken place and justice not been served


Perch called this action is farce .What a poster . More foresight than Doris Stokes


Another subject where those wipeout are always right were wrong,badly so ,in this case .

Few know wtf goes on at the club. Directors that stab each other in the back Palermo style ,a Trust ,created to save the club, shown irrelevant and incompetent and a fan base than turns on their own fellow supporters rather than insipid players,devious directors and clueless coaches .

We need to be taken over completely lock stock barrel. Best our Farke it owners can do is source an honest ,credible buyer .

Poll: Christmas. Enjoyable or not

Devaluation is always a problem in business, look at Barclays, one little mistake and they are devalued by billions.

The way the world is, where is a safe place to invest your money? At least a low interest rate in a bank account is safe.

Barclays in 2009 were running a fundamentally unsound business over exposed to a house price bubble collapse and reckless lending and payment of obscene bonuses to their top staff. (At least that is the simplistic narrative). They were bailed out by an huge Arab emergency cash injection.

There are number of places to invest. This is the basis of the success of the v city of London. Shares, bonds, property and foreign holdings in the main. The Trust model rules needs to be fully understood. It clearly allows for investment. The trust should employ a consultant to advise them and outline a sensible investment strategy within the restrictions outlined in the rules.

The Trust hierarchy have impressive CVs and should understand 'risk'. A 90% holding in a football club is "super high risk" although less than a PL team. Their cash holding is next to no risk. An advisor would promote a middle ground.

I would imagine the setting up of the '5% golden shares' will take some time to set up with the regulators.

I pointed out at the time preferential treatment of certain shareholders (usually government was declared illegal by the EU. The British airways Authority was one a golden 515 shareholding). We are no longer in the EU of course.

Not literally. That’s a physical thing.

When individuals post divisive bile about this forum and it’s posters, or the content it produces, a forum which aims to raise money for a specific charity close to my heart I get a tad annoyed. Especially when they are informed about it and don’t possess the humility to apologise there’s only one way to go.

If it isn’t ok, I couldn’t care. Being nice ended a long time ago.

As an edit, current board members have not been banned. Lost in translation 👍
