They have taken our hard earned money now they are shutting the fans out, what Ridsdale has done is nothing short of FRAUD.
If we are going to demonstrate i think it shouldn't be on a match day as it would affect the players and when all said and done its the team that's important not the Riddler.
Maybe what happened against Blackpool and our reaction was wrong and it was wrong of us to take it out on the players when it is clearly the Riddler with whom are beef is with.

I have thought about that, but the players do realise it was against PR and DJ, but DJ tried to twist it in the press lol.

Our Trust secretary has had a conversation withb Alan Whitely the football clubs solicitor about twenty five minutes ago...Mr Whitely has just returned from Germany and our request is on the agenda for Mondays club board meeting.

We have informed Mr Whitely that we will continue to gather shareholders votes in the meanwhile to call for an EGM if they decide against calling an AGM.

They have been aware of this for quite some time, the only conclusion that can be reached is that they are indeed trying to delay. The contempt with which we are being treated continues to escalate. Today is the deadline, not Monday, force the EGM asap and start demonstrations asap, this despicable treatment of the fans simply cannot go on.

They are trying to delay till Monday, you can guarantee come Monday there will be another delay and so on, they will clearly not agree to this willingly which is no surprise as we know what will be uncovered, gross incompetence. The EGM is the only way we will get this meeting.

I agree, it will be more delays on Monday I GUARANTEE IT :evil:

We are not just sitting on our arses waiting for them...we are continuing working throughout the weekend on getting the 5% required...it will just make things easier if they agree to organise an AGM...We fully expected to start the EGM campaign Monday anyway, in the meanwhile we are getting things ready to proceed with this next week.
Our solicitors in London are working on a letter with the resolution required to call an EGM and we have already acquired significant support from shareholders.

I am away now but things will keep moving.

Get in touch with the local media (not Terry Ridsdale, sorry Phillips though ;) ) and get them to report it - ITV Wales News regularly say "if you've got a story, get in touch". Let the club know that the story will be run & I'm sure the Riddler want to avert more bad publicity.

An email about the story to Sky wouldn't go amiss either - that'll rattle a few cages :twisted:

The Trust has its own Press Officer (Phil Nifield) who continues to assist us greatly with our press releases etc. And if it came to a choice between Phil and anyone from the local press , I would go for Phil`s abilities every time.

Even better, use Phil Nifield then - that would be ideal.

Tell the club "as you've chosen to ignore us, we're releasing our information and correspondence with yourselves into the public domain" - I'm sure they wouldn't want that & it could also show that the Trust mean business. Play the same bluffing games as them basically, it may get them to the table.

Or ask a former employee of the club for his contact at the News of The World :twisted: :D
