Should The Trust be seeking legal counsel from the fans? 19:30 - Dec 20 with 5566 views | Lord_Bony | We have heard they are preparing their legal case and a good one it is. But this is being done with a top QC who presumably would charge a lot for their services rendered with the prospect of it taking too long and the damage being done. If there's a Qc and team involved then yes it will take a long time to sort out in the courts. I sincerely hope the trust stops in its tracks right now and takes appropriate action to ensure it does not get ensnared in the long drawnout legal battle At the moment it's very simple, just get a court hearing have one or two representatives from both sides in a preliminary hearing and state the facts, use a law firm experienced in he particular points of dispute. keep it simple and let the judge decide the merits of the case before going to a full hearing . Just test the water first... if thats possible. Post Edit I have deleted most of the OP as a lot of what I wrote came out as garbage. Not a good idea to post after drinking a glass or two of wine and being a little angry,I could not help myself it all came flowing out of the keyboard too fast to make sense and appeared a bit incoherent. Apologies.

Should The Trust be seeking legal counsel from the fans? on 18:27 - Dec 21 with 543 views | TheCooler | Having not had sight of the original Constitution or A&A it's difficult to assess the damage that the Trust have suffered. It is said that the A&A granted certain rights to the Trust and these rights were protected. Again, unable to quote but led to believe the Trust were able to influence decision making at the club and had some form of veto. I agree that the issue is complicated and it will take a very good legal brain to determine the case and more importantly how that case is handled. I still firmly believe the Trusts position will be wholly dependent on the quality of the advice they receive. Company Law is extremely complex and courts are very reluctant to get involved. The catch all is the company, and the best interests of the company. This is where it can prove difficult to succeed in determining whether any decisions or actions were detrimental to the company. As you have pointed out the Trust have in essence everything they had before, it's for the Trust to demonstrate what damage they have incurred or, whether a Director or Directors have failed their Fiduciary duties. | | | |
