I wonder if they will now have a stance on whether lapdog stooge Robins should shut the fuck up and just manage the team?

They probably have a shortlist of managers for when they takeover.

Haha! It sounds like he might have got the attention he was so obviously craving in that month!

When someone says he’s Chris West he replies by saying something along the lines of “I’m not Charles West and have never played for England.” Bizarre denial.

He meant Chris Woods - I am not convinced it’s him I think he’s a guy who used to post on here as bigfatron and was on the CT site - can’t remember his name on there - he was definitely on the CT site

Whatever anyone thinks about Chris West, he's certainly not thick, and the only time I've heard him sound a bit less than bright was when he was a bit worse for wear, (as do we all!)

This guy is a complete prat. Spokesperson for Jimmyhillway?? Only a tit could be a spokesperson for himself.
Someone had it right earlier in the thread. All the media companies need to be told that these clowns dont represent the fans.

Maybe some supporters could approach the club with the notion of starting of a 'fans representative group' and simply sideline the Trust? They don't have a divine right to be called 'voice of the fans'

Yes. If you google his name 'Coventry Phoenix Supporters Trust' comes up - the objectives of the Trust are nothing to do with CCFC anymore I suspect

The problem is you're just starting another group which isn't representative of the fan base.
The more groups the more divided, that's not to say the trust doesn't need a shake up.
They've not did themselves any favours electing Johnson and Kaln, a hateful pair of devious little bastards.

To be fair, the Trust isn't representative of the fan base.

I'm serious...get MMJ to head up a new group (sorry for nominating you MMJ by the way), OSB to look after the finances of such a group and open up board membership to anyone connected with the club.

Thing is, six vacancies, six candidates.

More candidates, there'd have been an election. But there weren't.

That nobody thought they'd get into a closed shop? Not saying that's the case by the way, but some might have thought it...

What are the Trust objectives? I've had a brief look on their site but can't see anything? Didn't escape the cringey profiles of the board members though.

Please can you revoke my membership of the Sky Blue Trust and confirm in writing.

You no longer represent my views and I have no confidence in the Board members to present balanced perspective with regards the current situation at the Ricoh Arena. A true supporters trust would remain impartial and lobby all parties to reach the best conclusion for club and fans. That the Trust refuses to challenge certain key parties involved in this deadlock is simply unforgivable and an absolute disgrace to the history of CCFC. The Board needs to take a close look in the mirror and reflect on whether they are doing the best they possibly can to help this situation without pursuing personal agendas to satisfy egos through the media.

I did similar this morning, less critical - I just asked what the process was for identifying my membership (given that the email I used to join is now defunct) and for being removed as a member. Also pointed out that they undoubtedly have many more lapsed members.

I suspect we aren’t the only ones, so might possibly have to wait for a response. Will be interesting to see what they say.

I'm not expecting a reply other than they've cancelled my membership. I felt I had to be honest as to reason for leaving. Doubt they will give a shit.

AGM on the 15th I will be bringing up a lot of points that have been raised. Why don't some more turn up and voice some of the concerns you have.

86% so far of nearly 500 saying they dont represent them.

That doesn't bother me. What does bother me is that points could have been raised on countless occasions by just like the wasps protest the majority of the people that shout the loudest about various injustices and say something needs to be done are the people who are conspicuous by their absence. Hence we are where we are.
