That's why they do not go to the press very often because some do nothing but knock those who try.
So this is all the Trust could conjure up, and they want TF and JS to listen to the fans? sorry but I'm glad I never invested my pound into regurgitated "encouragements".
Tin hat on and ready - wasn't there a vote organised by the Trust to support the NOPM campaign? I'm sure there was with a majority favouring this standpoint. So have I missed another poll that overturned this?
I'm confused
I can't remember if that did happen, but if it did and regardless of the result, this is the correct direction for the Trust to take.
Is your suggestion based on ownership at full current market value? If so, my guess is SISU wouldn't be interested.
Or are you advocating they get it at a knock down price? If so, why?
Return under a fair rental agreement, with access to revenue streams not an option worth considering even in the short term?, even if ultimately a stadium were built by Otium?
Do not know what fair market value is. But would like to think that they would offer a similar amount to what it would cost to build a new stadium and in return get a 51% share plus ALL income streams.
So now we know the Trust won't be organising protests but acting as a mediator.
While I pray their initiative works & the two sides sort it, I can't see it happening.
It all seems a bit lame.
Doubt if CCC will ever sell the freehold, the commercial formula for the value of ACL is 3 x turnover so a touch over £21m, although that figure will be falling significantly due to reduced current income.

Has there been no comment from ACL on this matter? I would expect them to reinforce this SBT message via popular press.. and then await a response?

no comment from the club either from what i can see, nothing on the official web site anyway.
No.. that's not a surprise... I just think ACl should make their position clear and effectively invite SISU to the table formally, rather than rely on the SBT statement. This would then put ACL on the front foot, be a popular move as considered by most and win a few 'hearts and minds'.
SISU would then be under pressure to respond.No administrators coat to hide behind?
that's the worrying thing. no-ones made a statement other than the trust. i just hope that the trust statement doesn't end up being as empty as the Nikki Sinclair statement after her "positive" meeting with Joy Diversion. i'm not accusing the trust of putting out misleading statements, just that i wouldn't put it past either side to keep nodding and saying yes to the trust when they really mean no.
They were getting too much flak for being seen as a SISU Out enterprise rather than a supporters' club-that's the whole point of what they're doing with directors standing down and distancing themselves from anything which might get them seen as 'biased'.

I think that's the best way. If anything can sort this mess out it will be dialogue between the affected parties. Standing on a hill with a muppet banner won't. Good on the Trust for doing this and letting us know once talks have already taken place. Something I feel I can be positive about.
Well i m a member of the Trust and have complained many times of the anti sisu we re not taling to them stance.
I want Sisu gone but I want CCC and ACL gone as well.
I want the Trust talking to Sisu and all parties to try and get the team back in Cov.
I also do nt like the Ricoh, soulless place , with stupid parking restrictions. I d prefer a new stadium in Cov but as
thats unlikely to happen, the Ricoh it should be but free of Council interference and hopefully SiSu.

Who are they getting flack from? It isn't their membership! And surely as their sole purpose is to represent their members surely that is the only thing they should be concerned with!
How is it even now they haven't realised that talkiing to sisu just doesn't work. It just shows a fundamental flaw in their whole philosophy tbh. Cannot remember them getting much flack about being anti sisu when the protest happened!
But has it been put to a vote? If the majority of members want it then fine, but what if they don't? Are you telling me it is OK for the head honchos to act in direct opposition to what the majority of it's members want? Surely being as democratic as they claim then surely they MUST have a vote on such a immense change in direction! Surely you aren't advocating they should act regardless of the views of the members are you?
