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 that's the tricky part. Where would you draw the line and what criteria are you using for which board members you deem acceptable.

Not saying I agree with their decision but I can see the sense in having a clear policy that's applied the same to anyone.

Can't speak for that particular group, but the l&w supporters club has been fantastic at reinvigorating the camaraderie of the local supporters. Quite a few youngsters and women attend, and it has helped establish a bond with the players and management. Lots of hard work goes on to organise stuff from already busy people (thanks to those involved) Coach travel., arranging venues for away match drinks/food etc. What's not to like? A big thumbs up from me.

Hope this shitty clique fails and dies on its arse. How Micky mouse. It's like school 'your not allowed in our gang ne ne ne ne.'

Oh and Lanyard Sisu Frank is in charge? Another reason to sack it off.

But it is supposed to be all welcome just leave your politics at home or your out simple really and something no one can argue with.
After all I have been to one meeting to join up it was a good night enjoyed it but the political talk does go on between individuals.

The Trust and this new group formed are two groups who are more concerned with scoring points against certain people rather than bringing supporters closer.

Leamington and Warwickshire supporters club on the other hand seem to doing good work and are a group the club are working with and should continue to work with

What a gaff this is from them. I’m sure some of us know Moz and I know him personally and he is a massive fan the same as us. I’m sure he doesn’t need me to defend him but I’m not sure taring everyone with the same brush (ref the trust which lets face it has had its day anyway) is fair.
To be expected I guess as we don’t want our annual lanyards to be taken away now do we.....

what a fucking mess. If they'd let him join it would have been the end of it, now it's becoming a huge divisive issue, fucking idiots.
They've made this policy up on the hoof because a high profile trust name (Moz) tried to join and now it's going to come back and bite them on the arse because I think it's fair to say everyone has respect for the work Pat and her team do.
As for the tweet that Moz will soon be refunded, give him his money back now you robbing cunts.

No but if he gets into the supporters club - it’s only a matter of time before that’s infiltrated by Kalns and Johnson - we need a pro CCFC voice to combat the trust’s anti CCFC voice

A Fact or two

There never was the remotest chance of any third party forcing CCFC out of business. It simply was not and is not possible to achieve, and something the Trust Board have been aware of for many years. The only organisation that has ever been in a position to do that is SISU...... and they remain in that position but choose not to take that course of action. Sisu have always had an alternative readily available to cover things like ground issues, have always allowed the accounts to be signed off as a going concern (opinion : surely must mean they had a plan ready before their or anyone else's actions took place)

My Opinion

Awful lot of things have become "fact" that are in nothing more than social media jibber jabber that bears little or no relation to any facts. I fail to understand how people slate what is on social media in one breath then trot out equally dubious "facts" as the truth and rely on it with the next. Just to be clear the facts that i put forward on social media are capable of being proven but i welcome people challenging them so long as they can point to proper evidence as to where i am mistaken (yes i can make mistakes). I also do not expect my opinion on the finances, the football, the club etc to be the only one or the one that matters, ...... it is just my opinion and it is allowed to differ to yours without repercussion

The supporters clubs are, we are repeatedly assured non political, they are either that or they are not. It is not possible to be both or to choose when and when not.

I would have thought that the club would want to see unity amongst the fans, and the fans getting behind the team .............. not a clique who suddenly think they have some power picking on individuals. It is strange that the main villain in this (SISU) is grudgingly accepted (lets be honest only because the team is doing well) but others who have done far less damage individually scapegoated.

Fair play to the L&W Supporters club who on this and other matters seem to be doing a good job. They seem to me to strike the right balance.

I suspect someone like Moz will have spent much more money over the years on supporting the team and providing funds for the club to survive than many members of the Supporters Clubs or this forum........ hardly evidence of him want to end the club

I think both groups could work. They have shot themselves in the foot here. The trust needs modernising and reforming but they are here to hold sisu to account.

theres holding them to account and then there’s wanting the club to die - I can’t forgive the trust for wanting this

Let's be honest, banning Moz Baker is probably more in line with fans views than anything Moz Baker actually did with the Trust... Weird that really

no, got knocked back, (one of the few things they got right).
Runs the lies reid 'parody' account though parody accounts are supposed to be funny. An absolute weapon who hates CCFC.

I have to say that I think the majority of fans are fed up with the trust including myself. Final straw for me was the Wasps protest that A) The Trust should have organised not Pete B) The Trust should have promoted it at least, although to be fair to Moz he was there. I think we’re crying out for a supporters club in the mould of the leamington one and I was thinking that this was going to be it. Clearly not. The shit Pat took for continuing through the Sixfields year and now she’s got to take this. It’s bollocks.

No surprise there. Did it really need Moz to broadcast this on social media rather than deal with it in private?
