Last time. It is an invitation to be privy to information that is not in the public domain and that the owner has no obligation to put in the public domain. That's it.

Nobody has ever been forced to sign an NDA. I respect your football knowledge and acknowledge that it is deeper than mine. But on this subject I'm afraid you are talking nonsense.
It simply isn't in the trust's power to deliver much, but they try. I think there have been some mistakes made but at least they are willing to try rather than just moan.
One is a business selling a product. One is a group of volunteers willing to stick their heads over the parapet while being routinely slated by anonymous posters.
