Not content with betraying the membership you're now ruining our forums with a spam bombardment?
 
It seems Dave Haw=Haw, Terry Shitout and Sian Gobbles have been busy writing bullshit. Irrelevant bunch of self aggrandising sell out morons.

Funnily enough, I doubt it's any of them writing these things.

I'm not sure the whole "we're going to stay off social media" thing is a good idea though. Nobody goes to the Pod unless you used to be a Board member or you're at the stadium 30 mins before kickoff.
 
Oh, and I assume the loads of Trust stuff on the forum is because they've just updated their website and Phil's got some sort of whizzy thing that automatically creates posts whenever something gets updated on the Trust site.

Anyway, well done to Adam for dragging that site into 2022. Good lad that one.

I guess it’s all so that they remain wholly irrelevant, in their safe bubble, patting each other on the back.

Phil does whizzy now? Crikey. Time to retire.

It's very easy to slip into a bunker mentality when the shit hits the fan. Seen it first-hand at times. Doubly so when most on the board didn't tend to engage online anyway, I guess.

Bravery is going to be needed IMO. They've made a fair point today when saying that some of the stuff said has crossed the line, but hiding away isn't going to solve anything.
 
Good to see Lisa being mansplained with their answers...

Not. Boris would be proud of the doubling down

Some of the stuff has, I’m sure crossed the line, I’ve seen some pretty nasty stuff on social media. I have to say though that I’m not entirely convinced that saying they will take action against those making derogatory comments and will do so with the ‘full support of the club’ is entirely sensible…

I also think that just refusing to answer questions, or answering them with claims of confidentiality etc is likely to lead to the sorts of frustrations that does cause some then to become abusive. That’s not excusing it, it’s simply pointing out the obvious.

Yes, there were a couple of things in today's statement that were a little misguided IMO.

The frustrations won't go away by just hiding away. Quite the opposite.

The reply was quite astonishingly patronising wasn’t it. I should reflect more apparently.

It’s funny because no matter how much I reflect I think they were utterly wrong to accept that deal.

I’m simply not reflecting enough perhaps.

There's a premise that's been mentioned a lot by the Trust that this deal is automatically better than just dropping the legal action. I'm not sure that's an entirely sound assumption at the moment.

Yes, that’s very true, and strange that’s it’s not been considered given that I’m pretty certain the point was made a few times that doing nothing may be a better solution than taking a rubbish deal.
 
I’ve written a lot of public/press statements in my time. Some of them for the trust itself. The one released today shouldn’t have got past first draft stage for oh so many reasons. A bunker mentality and a public facing organisation that seems to have forgotten that they represent the people who elected them is not a good mix. There are many parallels with other walks of life.
