Oh dear, it gets worse for Labovitch. Another one for the "out door", I think. And how stupid is he? We don't need help to divide the fan base, we're more than capable of doing that ourselves, thank you very muchly!

Labovitch must have known this would be published, I can only imagine he wants to cause a row so that the club can then have an excuse not to deal with the Trust any more.

Just when you think matters can't get any stranger...

Inevitably CCFC throws more stones towards the glass house.

False dichotomy much?

95% of City fans are anti-Sisu. Would your ideal trust consist of the membership list of GMK by any chance?

Serious question. If you exclude everyone who doesn't agree with Sisu you have quite a small list to choose from and most of them have refused to be involved with any fans group. Much like your good self.

Just to play devils advocate, its a bit rich for Jan from the trust to claim...

“I think it was underhand of him to send it to so many people. It was a private conversation and much of what he said was taken out of context or, frankly, not true
Click to expand...

....however...

after an e-mail to fans was leaked to the Telegraph.

Personally, I'm sick of all this he said, she said, they said bullshit.

Who cares anymore....none of these people have any real influence on the situation.

OTIUM/Seppela....just make a real offer for the Ricoh or fuck off.
CCC/ACL...just name your price for the Ricoh or fuck off.

You're right needs a new board
Joy Seppalla
Tim Fisher
Mark Labovitch
Sandra Garlick

I'm sure that will be acceptable.

Is the actual email on there?

Didn't Steve also say something in some of the minutes about having a "shake up" ?

So basically he is saying they won't deal with the Trust while certain people are there and said that Jan agreed with him, when he didn't?

Can't the Trust ask publically what their problem is, what they think has happened with this "conspiracy" and prove them wrong?

For the purposes of clarity, the email was not leaked to us by Jan.

More pompous nonsense from our non-exec who should be congratulated for having achieved the frankly amazing feat of appearing to be even more out of touch than his predecessors / colleagues. Why on earth is he being used as the new mouthpiece for their PR ?

Simon, can you confirm if you / anyone at the CT has asked the council the following..

"what exactly is on the table in terms of a "short term rental deal" for CCFC to return to the Ricoh until they build the new ground ?"

Yes but I mean asked why he thinks that, so the Trust can answer it...

So it being an apparently private email who gave Simon Gilbert a copy then?

as for this bit .......

“I feel they are unrepresentative of fans. If there are technical questions about the finances why do we have to answer them through the Trust?”

any proper answers to anyone (let alone the Trust) would be appreciated and a welcome change. Mr Labovitch has the questions sent to him by the Trust, perhaps he would like to answer them to the fans (Trust members or not). There is a full copy he can access on the Trust website.
