Petition Asking what his intentions are for the club

We should state that we are doing this as many of us think that he is deliberately running the club into the ground, as ridiculous as this statement seems we cannot draw any other conclusions. If we can raise a few thousand signatures and present it to him we are acting peacefully and respectfully so he cannot accuse us of underhand tactics. At the meeting we can ask pre arranged questions so that he can prepare his answers. I think that it is important to so this as quickly as possible as we are obviously in free fall to oblivion at present. The statement that concerns me at present is an indication that he has received offers from consortium's and point blank refused to sell, if this is correct it would imply to me that he has no intentions of selling. If he refuses to attend an organised meeting then i think we should seriously consider other options.Please post opinions on this and other other ideas for us to protest. OUR club is dying at present

Easily arranged online and the link shared. Whether he pays any notice is another matter but if not it would make the next step easier to plan.

Good luck with that, Paul. I reckon you have more chance of plaiting cow muck!
I think we have to remind ourselves that this is a man who walked out of the club's AGM before shareholders got a chance to question him.

Personally I don't think he will agree to it and find the whole thing too soft. However, I will sign and support it as at least it's something and fair play for trying something.

Agree with all of this. However it won't bother him. As far as he's concerned the club has been and is well backed by him.

I'll stick my real name on it. **** him, we're not doing anything wrong and certainly shouldn't be worried as long as we stay within the facts.

If that statement did get 10k signatures, and a total no show followed, it would certainly tout CFC as a viable (yet militant!) prospect to future owners, and give the current ones incentive to get rid.
Pie in the sky though. Won't happen.

I'm one hundred percent with you, my friend.
Infact I'm one hundred percent behind anything that'll stop this slow strangulation of our club.
However as we witnessed when he was at Wednesday and have also seen at Town Allen doesn't seem to do 'respectful'. Worse still the crass re-writing of reality when introducing his namesake created slack-jawed bewilderment amongst fair minded observers.
My guess is he'll ignore any petition - and even if he accepted an invitation it'd turn into a Trumpian exercise in bombastic denial.
But for what it's worth you can add my name anyway.

If we had 10,000 signatures it would play right into his hands. He’s just say if all those turned up every week when we were doing well we wouldn’t be where we are now. We’d have the full house signs up and looking to fill in the corners for more capacity
