Well you’ve just quoted several tweets from the SBT on an earlier post....is Twitter not a communication channel? Not sure what you are getting at...

Perhaps he expected a personal correspondence delivered by his only childhood friend, Speckled Jim

Its a pretty simple point I'm getting at. There's no mention of a protest at the council or Wasps on any of the trusts social media channels. The only mention is of a coach to London to protest SISU and visit the EFL.

I'm pretty sure I saw the full agenda for the day, including times, on here chief.

1) Some people are at work at 9:15am

2) It was hardly promoted as a protest against anyone but SISU on social media.

Was going to say, I had absolutely no knowledge prior to yesterday that anything would even happen at the Council House or the Ricoh.

Because the obvious response to posts about a coach to a protest in London is what time do I need to be at the Ricoh for a protest against Wasps you've made no mention of :facepalm:

LMFAO

Funny thing is they actually think their opinion matters or has influence. The only place it matters is Sky blues talk...which is just that! talk.

I think it was a late tokenistic addition to the agenda. I'm not necessarily knocking them for anything they've done today but applauding the Wasps Commercial Director is cringeworthy.

Judging by the reaction from pr companies and family of lawyer's I'd disagree

Applauding wasps is a new low. Why do some fans prefer the hedge fund owners of the franchised out of town rugby club that is playing its part in trying to put us out of business? I don't get it. I really don't.

Your suggestion was "Maybe a question or two could have been asked?", why on earth would anyone ask a question about an event they had no clue was happening? Or should the response to any comment concerning the club now be 'what time shall I be at the Ricoh for the protest against Wasps'?

Holy fucking shit.

If you want to make a point and have your voice heard, have some semblance of fucking eloquence. All you’re achieving is a collective migraine and a rising number of posters blocking your sad arse.

That guy from the Portsmouth Supporters group who addressed a SBT meeting (about 2 years ago ish, there is a thread on here somewhere) said there were deep and acrimonious divisions in PFC fan base before their situation was resolved, ISTR he expected it would happen here & looks like he was spot on.

The thread where the Portsmouth guy was on is here, unfortunately the periscope archive doesn't go back that far, was on Jan 23, 2017.

If you want a conspiracy theory it’s the one that says that this is an intentional strategy to hobble fans voice while all this plays out. A sympathetic journo with an axe to grind here, the odd message about Trust members there, a couple of useful idiots here and there, the occasional new stadium announcement and boom; no fan pressure on you whatsoever.

Or, you know, public bodies are buying troll farms because of reasons.

Which is all well and good apart from the bloke on the trust board with all of the accounts to mislead, essays from a fans group saying the council had done nothing wrong, the desperation from people related to the council to write things off as conspiracy every time and the fact things are pretty much like the Haskell situation.

I said to CJ months ago that people like Jimmy hill way and fisherbaiter will drag the trust down and it needs people like moz who people can relate to. How did that turn out? All his own doing with his comment about robins.

Maybe if somebody from the trust communicated rather than throwing CJ under the bus every time people might unite more, not pull the tricks like the wasps protest thread.

Just seen a video moz did for itv. Fair play to him, he just kept it to the point. There wasn't any silly over the top stuff for the camera.

How it should be.

Get rid of all the theatrics and keep it to things like that and it's a solid start!

There’ve been so many morons on this site throughout the years and I’ve never been tempted to block a single one; I don’t even know how to. But somehow, your inane drivel on this one post has pushed me to the point of consideration.

No, it was along the lines of that we deserve better. It was fairly obvious that we weren't going to get a different or better answer than that unfortunately.

Who was contacted at SISU to let them know you were coming?

PR own goal - Supporters group protesting about being homeless shake hands and applaud representative of company making them homeless.

Joy Seppala knew we were coming. I am 100% sure of that.

So putting aside all your usual bickering, did they actually get to see anyone at SISU or indeed the EFL ?! Or is it too early and they're all still stuck in traffic ??!

SISU no. The EFL invited a couple in for a meeting. They were in there for well over an hour.
