That's just not true is it. It wasn't as if we were facing a winding up order or anything.

The club are being backed magnificently by the fans and frankly they deserve better than to be roundly dismissed by the usual trough sniffers.

Queues, terrible food,poor ticketing arrangements etc need sorting. It's easy to dismiss these when you don't have to get your fat bottom in a queue and you suckle at the club teat.

The club are also being backed magnificently by the Kirk brothers (who the TRUST brought to the table) and frankly they deserve better than to be roundly dismissed by the usual keyboard warriors / downright idiots / window lickers ( perm 1 of 3 available options)

Firstly I ignore the insults to folk who have genuine concerns, and secondly it’s a good job the trust brought them to the table because the trust had, by last years accounts, royaly f..ked things up.
There’s nothing wrong with a questioning attitude.

Agree there should be constructive criticism when needed but there are some just happy to moan about anything and do it in a way that’s not needed.

Also, it’s arms length ‘questioning’ isn’t it. Based on some of the comments towards trust representatives I’ve read today it could also be called abuse. They are keyboard warriors who wouldn’t have the balls to say to peoples faces what they do on here.

The Trust and minority ownership should be saluted for the investment in what looks a terifically competitive and experienced squad at this level. I’d rather focus on that than crap hot dogs to be honest.

The trust can be saluted as much as you like, but they can also take questions about a burger.

The incompetent Trust were bailed out by the Kirk brothers.

The fans have backed the club in numbers with cold hard cash and deserve not to be regarded as exploitable cash cows.

Where were you when the club was on its backside with a disinterested Allen not caring whether it died or survived? Probably typing the same old s.hyte you still do. They are far from perfect, but I’m pretty comfortable in accepting mistakes made were for the right reasons . E.g, chasing promotion under Rowe. Also. It’s pretty widely acknowledged that the Trust always said they were the guardians of the club until a better option could be found. They’ve done that and brought the Kirks in. Who to their eternal credit haven’t insisted on being majority shareholders. Job done. Investment secured. Quality squad assembled.

Initially I was in the stands. Then I withdrew financial support for his regime whilst we were in League One. And posted plenty on here imploring fellow fans to do similar before we ended up languishing in the National league.

And I was shouted down by the likes of you.

Does any of the board meet up for a pint before the match? I’ve lost touch with football mates through being married, so wondered if anyone met up through here.
