Moz Baker tweeted that he had been refused membership of the Coventry supporters club due to his previous involvement with the Trust.

If true that's a very ill judged desicion in my opinion.

He was chair of the organisation that was working with other parties to try to distress the club and possibly force them out of business.
They are an absolute disgrace.
He was in charge.

It can't claim to be a non political group and then make a decision to exclude someone based on politics.

I can't agree with this even if I disagree with a lot that the trust does/ has done.

They haven’t covered themselves in glory though have they? The former leaders seem obsessed with wasps - Jan definitely - and Moz spends as much time talking about Sphinx on twitter as ccfc

They've just confirmed they will not accept membership from any current or previous trust members.

This should be fun!

I've criticised them many times and will continue to do so.
Just think this is a wrong decision.

He goes to games and supports the club. His previous experience at a time when the supporters club wasn't even formed is irrelevant. He's no threat to thrm and wants to attend as a supporter. Until he does something that goes against their agenda he should be welcomed like anyone else. Nobody can deny even if they have a different point of view, that Moz loves the City and has put so kuch effort and time in home and away over the years. I posted when he left the trust that I rarely agreed with him, but I always respected him. Outrageous decision imo.

So even though they are openly hostile to the club in their social media activity that’s ok?

How would the football club working relationship be If they are there? Is robins going to an event and have a picture with a guy who said he is Sepellas stooge?

Yes, more division is exactly what this club needs.

Have the last few years been too congenial for you?

It’s petty and pathetic is what it is. An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.

I’m assuming they mean board members. Nevertheless, stupid.

Don’t be ridiculous. Disagree with Trust tactics all you like, but no one was trying to distress the club or force them out of business and spouting crap like that doesn’t help the situation.

But,and I may be wrong here, Im fairly sure its supposed to be a non political group.
If it's making exclusion of certain people it's policy it clearly isn't.
As for its relationship with the club, I don't know what it's relationship with the club is but I'm sure an ex chair of the Trust being a member wouldn't affect it or a couple of fannies like Job son and Kaln though I would bet a large sum of money they wouldn't contemplate joining.

Just goes to show which way the supporters club is leaning.
Funny he has been offered a place at the leam and Warwick club, since this decision was made.

This club (I'm a member) doesn't do politics (although individuals will of course have opinions). Political discussion will not be given any floor time.

But it is still a political statement which goes against what they stand for and only a couple of months old.
Funny old game.

That was me. Not so much offering a place, more to say that we welcone ALL supporters providing tgey leave their political baggage at the door. If they cant we'd exclude thdm too, but at least give them sn opportunity to support and I'm certain Moz or CJ would respect that. Others possibly not so sure.

And if you're a non.political group that's exactly what you should do.

That's the problem isn't it. If you let Moz in what do you do when the likes of Johnson and Kalns apply.

Also why the need for Moz to put it out on twitter, isn't he just proving their point by trying to politicise it and cause more division.

If you want a group to be non-political then I can see the argument for not letting in the people who did a lot of damage dividing the fan base.
