So really you are saying the Trust is unfit for purpose and doesn't actually represent it's members.

In which case, they shouldn't make any statements on behalf of fans and Trust members to the media.

I’m saying the Trust was only ever fit for one purpose and that was in the event of a fan takeover being required, which hasn’t been the case for some time.

I’m saying Trust members who can’t be bothered to get involved should either accept they have no say or leave so the Trust can’t claim their numbers as evidence of representing anyone they don’t.

I’m saying people who want a message in the media shouldn’t rely on a clearly unfit for purpose trust to read their mind in the age of email and social media and should attempt to start their own forms of pressure.

This apparently is worthy of several pages of abuse. Classic SBT. Never change.

You are saying fans can only get involved by turning up and going to a meeting at short notice in a pub on a Monday.

Do you think it would stop the Trust if they lost members and they would stop going to the press?

Nobody expects the Trust to be mindreaders. They expect them to get with the times.

Are you on crack today? You are scraping like you do when it comes to council stuff, funny that.

Cool story and I didn't say the majority did I? I said muslims may not want to go to a meeting in a pub and there will be some. Nowhere did I mention where they live or where they work.

You're done here kid, you fucked it big style.

How many fans in percentage terms to you reckon fit into one of those three buckets?

And why would they be more representative of CCFC fans than those that don’t. Because that’s the argument you are making.

I mean, you know my name, you can find my linked in and check if there’s a Muslim girl called Habeebah who works with me if you really want?

Yes. I think if the Trust just represented a handful of people they would have less of a claim to be the voice of the fans or whatever. I think that’s fairly obvious. To be honest I can’t remember the last time I saw anything from them. I think mostly they live rent free in your head and have very little impact in the wider debate.

But keep getting angry at them. I’m sure that and a couple of more stars in Wasps will have us back any second.

I didn't quantify anything. I was just giving another example of someone who a 7pm meeting in a Cov pub could be a barrier to.

Frankly I couldn't give a rats who you sit next to but if this person is real then why would they be the same as all other Muslims.

Problem is we’ve paid £1 for lifetime membership 10 years ago - it’ll be like world of Warcraft who claim they’ve got 25 million players but what they don’t mention is the active players is something like a 5th of that

The last time the Trust piped up was when Wasps needed some PR to distract from something.

How many people do you think the Trust actually represent at the minute?

The Trust obviously have some sort of impact, hence they get used to do PR jobs for Duggins and Wasps.

It was rejected as an option for next season - there are effectively 13 clubs as Newcastle have been given money from the share deal and will have to pay it back - there will be a relegated club this season

Good!!
Im conflicted though - not sure which would give me the most satisfaction - Sky Blues getting promoted or Wasps getting relegated!!
Tricky one. :nailbiting:

Man you are stupid.

Me: if people want to change the trust they need to get involved

You (a genius): What if they’re Muslim/work on Mondays/live away from Cov?

Me: How many people do you think that applies to?

You: I’m not quantifying anything

Me: then you have no proof that this subset of fans being excluded is significant enough to change the direction of the trust. If it’s not a majority then there is still a majority who simply can’t be arsed and clearly those are the people I’m talking about

Fuck me. I’m amazed you’ve managed to operate a computer and didn’t get stuck in the FB group holding pen for morons.

In your head yes they do. As I said about the theory someone is paying thecoventrian to post his bollocks, if that’s the case they’ve severely wasted their time and/or money because literally no one gives a shit about them.

The local media are a problem and are accountable to some extent. There are thousands on members on this forum that you operate. You could easily organise them to apply pressure even if you are a Muslim working long hours in Timbuktu. And yet you choose not to.

Oh dear. You know I’m going to have to start charging for reading comprehension lessons at some point, but here’s another free one:

I asked why people don’t get involved, Grendel, through you, said it was because meetings were held in a pub in Coventry on a Monday.

That implies there are three barriers to access: it being in a pub, it being in Coventry, it being on a Monday. I asked you how many people you think one of these barriers applies to. You shat yourself and wiped it all over the keyboard.

Happy to help.

Why don’t people who want the Trust to change direction get involved and get elected to the board?

The trust board decide policy. The trust board are all of the same view - an anti Sisu group that ideally wants the Hoffman consortium in and playing at the Ricoh with Wasps

The constitution makes it very difficult to go against that as all questions and items need approval in advance by the secretary. Fletcher and Ellis still regularly communicate with these people. Johnson I assume controls the agenda and claims to speak on behalf of all fans

Shmeee is really being very disingenuous here

So Shmmeee as it's crystal clear that my reply about muslims not wanting to go into a pub was to a post of yorus that only mentioned the pub and not days or distance you going to say sorry?

repeat after me "David, i'm sorry i can'tread. I'll try not to do it again"

The fact they have meetings in pubs answers that rather than on line communication. Safety in very small numbers.

Nope you refuse to mention the other point raised - the way questions are ranked. Also I doubt Unite when voting can only allow members who turn up to the Wheel Tappers and Shunters a say do you?

No, he said claim conspiracy, which you do every time something about the trust or the council is mentioned even though most of the things claimed have proven to be facts.
