Can we call for a supporters forum and not a closed shop one like we've had before where it's also broadcast live on Peak Fm or Spireites Player.

Might need a bigger venue than the Proact somewhere like the winding wheel

It doesn't make me feel all warm and included. I've stated on here enough times that I think CT has been a disaster as CEO. I feel that if I say this from behind a keyboard then, when given the opportunity, I should at least have the decency to say it in the open, so to speak.

How was the selection for the Bobs Board members arrived upon Mr M

This thread is taking a predictable course.

Assumng you are a shareholder and the CFC board still have enough courage to hold open questions after the AGM's formal business, you'll still have the opportunity to put your concerns forward. I suspect after this meeting on the 9th there will be more questions than answers.

You might even be able to tabke your question directly to Turner and be allowed a comeback after his response. I wouldn't count on it though

I think moondog touched upon this in the initial post on this thread, other than that I don't know.

You can ask as many questions as you can in the time it takes to have your DNA extracted.

[jack bauer]

in fairness to the club, well done for this. for the record i'm not offended in the slightest at not being a chosen one. could I clarify one or two things though.

1. how many questions in total are there?
2. how do the non invited get questions on the agenda?
3. questions that require research??? surely a matter of opinion so questioners you could be clever here.
4. (and this is me being silly) is the lack of pie and peas at this new event a sign of how desperate the finances are. If p&p has been reinstated I apologies for my cynicism.

seriously though I do have questions i'd like answers to, can I forward these to someone for consideration?

You can forward them to me either via pm or to : [email protected]

The club have called for openness. This is a meeting they have arranged.Therefore I expect full minutes to be made available via the OS,agreed by all attendees, and not just spoon fed what can be remembered on here.

Easy enough to record it.

It's not a fans forum it's basically a private meeting- not the same at all.

Just to add jonnythespireite, a lot of those invited, and I don't include me, are the ones who've highlighted the issues that many of us are concerned about. If they intended to be the chosen few and be all warm and cuddly then they certainly wouldn't have done the questioning and probing they've done!

But if it's the club wanting to apologise and be more open, it's got to come from them surely? You call a meeting, you minute and publish.

There's far too much 'look at me, I've been chosen' posturing on here. People who, up until now, have quite rightly questions what's going on at the club now appear to have joined Moondog in Carson's troop of performing lap-dogs. It's amazing how a bit of 'fame' changes people - precisely the reaction Carson is playing you all for.

Do you really think we're all that gullible and naïve ?

Time for a reality check my friend.

Make no mistake some of the info we've got that will form part of our questioning could put ourselves in a very difficult position.

[marlons curtains]

I've no problem with the lineup. Looks a good balance to me of posters who won't be afraid to say it as it is, and won't accept being fobbed off.

Sorry but that's far from the case. I've posted many times of my distrust and dislike of what has happened under Turners watch, I've now been given a chance to come from behind the keyboard and try to question that. I'm hastily thinking "have I posted anything that makes me liable" but I'm prepared to show my face. If you think you might offer more to the meeting than I can then as far as I'm concerned you can have my place.

I've not changed one iota mate and can assure you there are no lap dogs amongst the group co-opted to attend this meeting. I also don't see a single posturing post over being chosen, if I've missed it provide the post number.

Incidentally how would you have handled being asked to put a limited group together?

"Looking at them" could have a downside, these individuals may be putting their heads (and real names) above the parapet to get shot at. There is always a threat of legal action lurking in the background. If they didn't have the club at heart, they wouldn't be doing it, as there is nothing in it for them personally.

Let's see what questions are asked, evidence put forward and answers given before we shoot anyone down.

[marlons curtains]

Just one question from me...
Just look Carson and Turner in the eye and ask them if they knew prior about Rafflegate. And if they didn't, why didn't they?
