Just a statement of what we already knew a year ago and they send a letter once a month.

NO Serious, I dont back the Trust whatsoever and thats My Opinion.
Ridsdale laughs at them.

TLG how do you expect people tojoin the trust when all you do is knock people who have different views to you, the way you are going the trust will be a one man band (just you). You should be trying to galvernise support not alienate people. For the trust to prosper they need you off the committee ASAP.

Buying shares in the club amongst other things. I'm sure the accounts will show exactly what.

There was over £15,000 in the Trust account the last time I read a treasurer's report.

I'm sure it wouldn't. I have no affinity with the Spider language.

So, why did you lie, claiming the statement was on behalf of "thousands of loyal supporters"? Was there a mass influx of new Trust members, for example? Are there thousands of unique individuals in the joint Trust, SC membership lists?

Or is it an attempt to make the trust look good when in reality you issued a banal statement containing the bleeding obvious, with no indication of what you'd do next.

Maybe should admin occur - which let's be honest, would be the Trusts only chance of getting board representation - you could write a strongly worded missive to Peter threatening him with paper cuts as revenge, hmm?

And you sound like so many others, who like to tell people like me that they are useless but who do nothing themselves.

Join up, vote me off and stand for election yourself.

If you don't like the way the Trust is run, then help to change it.

Or just take the easy route, ie: sit back and do nothing other than moan about those who are doing something.

The choice is yours.

"Doing something".

Quite.

I'd suggest a march that attracted more people than the trust has members, attracted more publicity is "doing something".

I'd have a lie down if I was you. Helping put together that statement must be really tiring.

What future protests?

What form will they take? What will their aims and objectives be? How will they be organised?

TBH TLG you just don't get the engaging with the membership bit at all. Rather than play the victim card why not step back and ask yourself I'm I receiving fair critisim?

I accept that you can't please everyone all the time, there are plenty of times when people in authority fail to see their mistakes because they are stubborn (much like Mr Ridsdale)

The clever representatives are not the ones who delude themselves they are never wrong, the cliever representatives are those who adapt by learning from their mistakes, but to do that you have to accept you have made them in the first place.

Honest opinion.
