I believe the Trust are aiming to speak to the club/board?
The Trust have been doing a good job IMO, and I'm not sure why there are hundreds of people (on CCMB and this board, etc) criticising the Trust and TLG when TLG is just expressing his personal opinion?
The Trust want what's best for the club, as do the people who marched, as does TLG. We're all Cardiff fans
(I know you aren't being funny towards the Trust Annis; I'm just confused why everyone is arguing over one person giving his personal opinion)

You as a member can ask the TRUST a question any time you like and actively seek answers.
Now elected TRUST members can look at your request and state.......sorry he's not a member we cant give you the info. you require.
Anytime I have a question for the TRUST i e mail directly and get a response within 24 hours.

It's somewhat ironic that someone having questioned the aims of the march seems to believe the way to go is a meeting with Ridsdale. Guess that'll work? Maybe Ridders will have a conscience attack and repent?

Therefore the Trust followed the 'wishes' of its members by not backing the march but recongising the right of those who want to protest to join the march.
At first sight TLG is correct he didn't have a mandate from the membership to back the march (although when the Trust Board's individual preferences were taken into account he did). But that's not the real point, the real point is the Trust didn't canvus the opinion of more than 7 members.
While the excuse the membership can't be consulted on every issue is fair, that excuse doesn't wash on something as important and fundermental as a fans protest march (which included Trust membership) against the clubs board of directors. Indeed not only is it alarming the Trust didn't consult with its members it is of further concern that the membership were unaware there was an alternative where they could contact the Trust by email to express their views before the Trust would back the march.
That is piss poor organisation and smacks of excuse making in order to duck a hard call.
I am a Trust Member and plan to continue to stay a member because I believe in the concept but whilst I'm a member I will canvas for change.
However, in my honest opinion the Trust has botched it's first real call to arms. It now needs to review how it engages with the membership as well as looking to find a strong leader who will make the hard calls, otherwise it will fold.
Imagine if they had backed it, I know Ridsdale would off stopped them having half a page in the programme, but their Membership might have doubled.

I was a member and have now resigned, so have many others, WHY DIDT YOU ASK THE MEMBERS TO VOTE, THE MARCH WAS ORGANISED OVER 3 Weeks ago.
Please be honest now
How actual members have you at this moment ?
Take away all those who have NOT RENEWED.
How Many different house hold addresses have you got ?
There were 5 Members from My house, 3 from another mates and 6 from another mate of mine all not renewing.
OUR NEXT MARCH WE HOPE WILL ATTRACT 5,000 IF THE CLUB DOES NOT START TELLING US THE TRUTH.
Whats the TRUSTS NEXT PLANS PLEASE ?
I am not being funny to the Trust,I just want answers.

Secondly, you didn't resign from the Trust. Your membership expired in early-January and you failed to renew it.
Thirdly, nobody has resigned from the Trust.
The Trust's board didn't ask the members to vote on the march because there was no need. It was not a Trust-organised event and it was obviously up to the individual members whether they wanted to march or not. Many did, many didn't. A vote wouldn't have many difference.
How many members do we have? Around 850 if those who haven't renewed yet are taklen out of the equation, but I'm sure, or should I say I know for a fact, that plenty of them will renew.
How many different address have we got? No idea.
You say you are hoping to get 5,000 for another march. Good luck with that. Will you be charging them £12 for the privilege?
What are the Trust's plans? As regards what?

Yes I didnt renew because I resigned, by not renewing.
Dont laugh we will get 4-5,000 for another march if needed.
I would like to know how many different addresses.
No Serious, OUR Club as you know is near Administration if The Court cases are not sorted and many bills paid.
What the Trust doing, asking etc.
Are you backing Peter Ridsdale or are you standing up to him ?

How is another march going to stop us going into administration though?
I think yesterday did well to show the point, and publicise the problems but surely now we need to help come up with solutions and try and save the club rather than keep protesting?
We need to help save this club together
